THE KEMP FACTOR - ‘WE'VE ALWAYS MADE SURE  WE ALL PUSH EACH OTHER TO THE MAX'

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree in the Kemp family. The youngest member of the clan, presenter Roman, 27, has followed in his parents’ showbiz footsteps to host the popular Capital FM breakfast show. Meanwhile, the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star’s older sister Harley Moon, 30, has carved out a successful career in photography and is also a songwriter.

The siblings, of course, know exactly who to turn to when it comes to advice. Their mother, Shirlie, rose to fame as a backing singer for Wham! in the early 1980s and later formed pop duo Pepsi & Shirlie, while their father, Martin, 58, was Spandau Ballet’s bassist and later played iconic EastEnders villain Steve Owen.

But despite their showbiz credentials, don’t expect any diva demands from the Kemps. The family are incredibly close, and gratitude, Martin and Roman tell us, is important to them all.

Fans were given an insight into the father and son’s relationship on Celebrity Gogglebox and now the duo have landed their very own TV show, Martin & Roman’s Sunday Best!. he venture is the perfect opportunity for the pair to get together, with Roman currently isolating with his girlfriend Anne-Sophie Flury at their London home, while his parents live in Hertfordshire. The show will be filmed in a studio, with all guests and presenters adhering to two-meter social distancing rules. Here, Martin and Roman talk creative differences and sibling rivalries…

You’re close as a family. Has it been difficult being apart during isolation?
