Nicky opened up to The Times in 2004 about his first marriage. "She was eight years older than me and divorced with two sons. Friends told me I was taking on too much, but the more they said that the more determined I was to defy them.
"Maybe I was looking for someone who could make sense of my world, but I thought I was in love. We were together for 13 years, and married for seven."
