Denise van Outen's relationship
Denise has been dating commodities trader Eddie since 2014 and the couple live together in their Essex home. The six-bedroom property has featured on Celebrity Gogglebox when the pair took part in the show, and they even gave an exclusive look inside their home with HELLO!.
During the interview and shoot, Denise explained that she wanted to "bring out our personality" with the décor, which included creating spaces that each of them will love. "In our house we’ve got the games room, which is Eddie's place, we've got the cinema room because Betsy loves movies, so that's a great place to cuddle up and watch movies together. I always wanted a really big dining table so we've kind of got everything that we want here," she said.

On 1 May 2010, the former couple welcomed their daughter Betsy. But in July 2013, Lee and Denise announced their separation. Denise previously opened up about her relationship with her ex-husband, telling HELLO! back in 2018: "We never really had to think about it too much. At the start we always just made it - we knew Betsy was the priority and as always will be friends. We are friends. Everybody's situation is different, and ours works well."

Denise van Outen's daughter
Betsy was born in 2010, one year after Denise and Lee wed. In an interview with Fabulous magazine, Denise revealed Betsy has been diagnosed with dyslexia and dyspraxia. The youngster - who was enrolled in a specialist school in 2017 - has been homeschooled by Denise over the last few months, jokingly branding her mum's teaching skills "horrible" in an Instagram video last year.
While Betsy is excited about seeing mum Denise on the new series of Dancing on Ice, there's one thing she's impatiently waiting for. "Betsy is desperate for [Eddie and I] to get married; she tells us that all the time. We want to do it, too, surrounded by all our family and friends", Denise recently told HELLO!.
