Four years on from her divorce from Phil Vickery, Fern Britton is finally ready to hit the dating scene, as the 66-year-old revealed she is open to finding love again.
The Celebrity Big Brother finalist – who was married to TV chef Phil for more than 20 years – told presenter Christine Lampard during a segment on Lorraine that she would like “a bit of romance”.
According to a source, Fern’s recent stint on Celebrity Big Brother has given her the motivation she needs to look for someone special.
“Fern is ready to start dating, she’d love some romance in her life,” the source said. “CBB really gave her back her confidence. She was feeling a bit lost for a few years after leaving This Morning and the breakdown of her marriage, but her appearance on the show gave her the much-needed push she needed.”
Fern and Phil met on BBC Two’s Ready Steady Cook and soon tied the knot in 2000. However, in 2020, Fern – who shares daughter Winnie, 22, with Phil – announced on Twitter that they had decided to call it quits.
