Ben Ofoedu has moved on from his relationship with his ex-fiancée Vanessa Feltz – but who is his girlfriend?

The Phats and Small singer, 51, was with Vanessa, 61, for 16 years before they split just more than a year ago. Ben now claims that his ex-fiancée stole the "best years of my life" and only kept him around as "eye candy". But now the singer is with Precious Muir, who is 17 years younger than him. They've been seen out together a lot, showing off their fresh love, and Ben has confessed to being totally loved up with her.

But who exactly is Precious and what TV shows was she in? The Mirror has taken a deep dive into their romance.

Ben met Precious at an event after deciding not to use a dating app to find love. Precious is a 34-year-old Londoner who is a model, a film producer and a reality star. She previously appeared on Channel 4's The Circle in its first season, as well as seasons one and two of Open House. Precious has also appeared on GB News a lot where she's defended her opinions on popular topics and also defended going to Playboy parties at Hugh Hefner's mansion.

She often shares snippets of her life at GB News on her Instagram account where she boasts a whopping 253K followers. The brunette stunner also posts heaps of snaps showing off her keen sense of style. But so far, she's not made her relationship with Ben 'official' on Instagram.

But while they may not have gone Instagram official, it hasn't stopped them from becoming the talk of the town. Ben and Precious have been snapped sharing cosy moments at fancy events. Ben's even given us a tiny sneak peek into his new relationship with Precious, revealing he feels like he's "34 again".

Chatting with MailOnline, he opened up about his previous relationship with Vanessa, admitting: "I wasn't very clever with my last relationship. I didn't look at where the person was, and love was blinding me. I thought love conquers all but inevitably it doesn't."

He then confessed that he had "given himself" to Vanessa for several years but felt, "I got nothing from it". He then began talking about his new relationship: "I met Vanessa when I was 34 and I lived 17 years in her life and it was all what she wanted. So now I'm with Precious I feel 34 again and like I have got back my life. I have the same aspirations I had at 34..."

"I'm looking forward to a bright future, many more Valentine's Days, living together and children... and these things are incredibly exciting for me. Precious has made me feel like I have got my life back."

Ben shared that he and Precious "are on the same page" and are open about what they want for their future together. Vanessa told everyone last February that she and Ben were no longer together after 16 years, saying she was "disappointed" and "extremely sad" that their relationship ended.

The former couple split after Ben's infidelity came to light, leaving the TV legend completely heartbroken. Vanessa has two daughters from before, with her ex-husband Michael Kurer, a surgeon she was married to until 2000.
