“I did once ask [Grant] if he would have stayed if we’d had our own children, to which he replied, ‘Possibly’. “I shall never know, of course, but I can’t pretend that wasn’t painful to hear. It was a double blow, I guess.” Bovey is already a father to three children from his first marriage. However, after five bouts of IVF, Anthea found she was unable to conceive.

Anthea and Grant were both married to other people when they first met and left their respective partners to be with each other. “Looking back, I regret the pain we caused,” the 57-year-old revealed. “It was a terrible time of hurt all round and, knowing what I know now, I am so sorry about it all.”
