Is anyone else at all curious

[miracled]

as to the identity of Liz Jones mystery rock star lover? Apologies if I am repeating a thread but just read today's 'wingefest' and can't believe its anything other than a work of fiction.

I think we're all aiming a leeetle bit high with our guesses (with the exception of Allarmbells' excellent suggestion).

I think we should have a good hard think and re-group with a new agenda.

I'm thinking:
Black Lace (either of them)
the percussionist from Liquid Gold
Limahl or Nick Beggs
Marilyn

...etc.

Pete Burns?

the one remaining BeeGee?

i have in my mind someone from level 42 dunno why

Howard Jones?

Timmy Mallet?

Glen Madeiros

Thanks for the link.

And did I really read that she said this rock star was her age, "about 47?"

i have read her book so maybe the level 42 link was in there - my memory is usually pretty good

I think both Howard Jones and Timmy Mallet are happily married.

I'd be heartbroken if its Alex James.

i thought alex james was married too

Alex James' wife has just had another baby IIRC, possibly their 5th?

There is no way its Alex James! Not while there are dogs on the street. If this really was happening DM would be all over it, so I am highly suspicious.

Just had a really sick-making thought - Rick Wakeman

I heard that Alex James is skint- that's why he keeps doing reality shows. there's not that much money in cheeeeeese

...I also heard that he [whispers] hangs out with the Camerons

either way (new baby notwithstanding) he's not likely to be taking Liz Jones off for a mini break anytime soon

roffle

it has to be someone rich

we need to bear in mind that Ms Jones may be lying about his age. Or even profession...

how about

Keith Flint out of the Prodigy

Chris de Burgh

Sir Cliff (Liz becomes Sir C's beard; he keeps her in the style to which she'd like to become accustomed- and they live Happily Ever After)

aaaaaahhhhhh

Fish from Marillion? That bloke from Simple Minds who was married to Patsy Kensit and is therefore accustomed to 'high-maintenance' women?

One of The Wurzels?

Oooh Chris de Burgh!! Wouldn't that be a match made in heaven?!!
If she gets Brian Ferry or someone from Duran Duran I will be Seriously Annoyed.
Fish from Marillion - nice one.
Howard Jones - he's a Buddhist, collects classic cars, pompous. That would be a good fit...

Not that I'm obsessed....but I was catching up on Saturday's Times and I saw Martin Clunes talking about his farm. His age...48 (although happily married, not a rock star, and sensible)

I even searched a local Norwich news paper to see who the local rock star is, but no luck. I'm going to find out!!

Gary Glitter?

don't think she fits his demographic.

There are some excellent suggestions here. I vote we sent her this thread so that she can comment about whether we're getting warm or not.

Given her descriptions of shabby, threadbare country life are somewhat removed from the realities revealed in the links to her estate agent, I also think her definition of a 'rock star' might be a little imaginative.

I would soooo love it to be Chris de Burgh. I can fully imagine him in a mickey mouse t-shirt. Surely he's much older than 47 though. I think we're closer when we think of 80s bands.

This is such good fun.

Well Chris de Burgh has got form, didn't he shag the nanny? The 'rock star' has a hotel in France too according to Cruella.

I know!

Andrew Ridgeley

Although I would also point out that Johnny Depp is 47, owns a house in France and has a rock band.

nooooooooooo

he lives with/is married to one of Bananarama. They're so happy

(fuck knows how I know that. I need a Mental DeCluttering Service)

that's Andrew Ridgely- not Depp

Julian Cope?

heheheheheheheheheee
