He had Rochelle Humes by his side while presenting This Morning and his Strictly partner Joanne Clifton when he lifted the coveted Glitterball. But the most important woman in Ore Oduba’s life is his wife Portia.
They began dating after meeting at a Loughborough University event in 2011. First came love, then came marriage [on 6 November 2015] and then came baby Roman [on 9 January 2018].
In their decade together, there’s not much the pair haven’t faced. The Strictly curse didn’t faze them and they coped with being apart when Ore, 34, went on the road for the tour just days after their son was born. But the couple admit to OK! that the past few months in lockdown have been tough.
They credit their history and two-year-old Roman for keeping them together. And when we catch up with them for an exclusive shoot at Portia’s family home, she has to ask husband Ore to stop embarrassing her with compliments.
