Lorraine and Steve, who share 27-year-old daughter Rosie, met in the eighties when Steve worked as a cameraman and Lorraine was out on the field as a correspondent. They went on to tie the knot on 5 September 1992, with the TV star admitting that she had one regret about her "bouffant" wedding dress.

Speaking to the press at the launch of BBC's Wedding Day Winners in 2017, Lorraine said: "At my wedding, it was such a small one, it was wee, it really was. All I wanted was men in kilts and pipers. There was no real plan! It was very, very traditional."

She added: "My dress... Uyuy-yuy. It was 1992 so it was kind of like a Princess Diana bouffant thing with big sleeves – oh God. We could all get in it! We could all fit in my dress. I've still got it."
