"Lots of gorgeous women were coming in and lots of them were chatting to Jamie. He then turned to my husband Ken and he went: 'It's not as good as it looks, honestly'."

Speaking about meeting Frida, Jamie said: "One of my best friends introduced us so that made it quite easy," he said of finding his second wife. "Frida had just gone through a divorce a couple of years ago.

"He said, 'You guys are made for each other, you've got the same interests'. And yeah, thankfully she's incredible, she's a great mum, ticks every box, it's just perfect! I'm very lucky."

Speaking after her ex-husband tied the knot with Frida, Louise told Hello! Magazine : "I've felt this as a mum and, to say this in the most sort of respectful way, my boys' lives changed dramatically and then it changed again when obviously Jamie got married and had a family.

"Their life changed and I felt like I needed to be their one staple - that's just something I think a lot of mums would feel."
