"There was this guy on the beach that I was obsessed with. He was much older than me. Five years older than me, but I didn't know that at the time."

Louise and David have been married since 1998

She continued: "Forward wind many years later. There's a girl called Ali, she's got two older brothers… Forward a few more years, I'm 28 at this stage. Ali and I are having a conversation we'd never had before about going on holiday to the beach, and I was like, 'Oh, that's the beach I used to go to.' Then I'm like, 'Did one of your brothers used to wear a Kinks T-shirt?' She was like, 'How do you know that?'…"

She said: "So I see him at Ali's next party and I bounce up to him and say, 'It's so funny, I must tell you, I used to be in love with you when I was 13,' and before I walk off, he says, deadpan: 'When you chuck your boyfriend, give me a call.'"

She added: "So I did, I chucked my boyfriend. Less than a year later we got married."
