Prue Leith
Prue Leith has been married twice. The Bake Off judge's first husband, Rayne, was 20 years her senior and passed away in 2012, leaving Prue a widow at just 62. She was single for 14 years before finding love again with her partner, John Playfair, back in 2016.

Now 82, Prue and clothes designer John only just moved in together in 2020 after living in separate homes for the first ten years of their relationship. In an interview with the Telegraph, she said of their new home: "John calls our new home our 'retirement home'. We have to face the fact that we're going to live together for the very first time. It just feels like the right time now."

Paul Hollywood
Paul Hollywood was married to the food writer Alexandra Hollywood for 20 years before they split in 2013 after it was revealed that the judge had an extramarital affair with his American Baking Competition co-star Marcela Valladolid.
Although they reconciled shortly afterwards, with Paul calling the affair "the biggest mistake" of his life, the couple - who share a teenage son together - split for a second time in November 2017. Since then, Paul, 56, has had a number of girlfriends and is thought to be dating pub landlady Melissa Spalding.

Matt Lucas
Presenter Matt Lucas prefers to keep his personal life out of the spotlight, so not much is known about his current love life, although it is believed he is single. The Little Britain star was previously in a civil partnership with TV producer Kevin McGee, who tragically died in 2009, one year after the couple split.

Penning a heartfelt tribute to his ex-partner on Instagram on the ten-year anniversary of his death, Matt wrote: "I loved him more than anyone I've ever met, and still do. He was so funny and silly and clever and kind and handsome and his smile made my heart soar. We were together for nearly six years and he made me the happiest man on the planet."
Sandi Toksvig
Former presenter Sandi Toksvig has been with her wife Debbie Toksvig, a psychotherapist, for many years. The pair originally tied the knot in a civil ceremony back in 2007, and they renewed their vows when same-sex marriage was legalised back in 2014.
