Radio presenter Edith Bowman has addressed rumours that she had a romantic relationship with fellow TV presenter Cat Deeley.

The star, who has recently launched podcast Friends Will Be Friends with pal Cat, admitted that she is “in love” with her co-star – but only platonically, that is.

Appearing on Angela Scanlon’s Thanks A Million podcast, 48-year-old Edith discussed her decades-long friendship with the former SM: TV Live host.

“Cat Deeley and I, we started MTV at the same time and we’d spent so much time just hanging out and going out.

“We were really good mates, and we are really good mates still. And it was like, ‘Oh, Cat and Edith are in a lesbian relationship’.”
