This morning I learnt that Bill Nighy is (probably) in a relationship with Anna Wintour, and that Davina McCall is with that funny little hairdresser from This Morning, Michael Douglas.
Staggered doesn't come into it - I thought I was pretty on the ball with celebrity culture. Clearly not!

I was surprised when I saw a bit of a documentary about the British rower Helen Glover to discover she is married to Steve ‘Deadly 60’ Backshall!
I don’t read magazines or celeb sites, don’t follow celebrities online etc, don’t watch much in the way of fiction stuff on telly, have heard of davina McCall but no idea who the hairdresser is, heard of Macaulay Culkin but not his wife, I often feel like I’m behind the times but I’m just not interested really!

Adding Charlie Brooker and Konnie Huq to the list of surprising celebrity couples!

@Mercedes519

What about Lily Allen and the policeman guy from Stranger Things. Don’t know why I find that odd - seems like an odd juxtaposition to me!
Wait… what??

Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor shocked me because of the age difference.

I didn’t know about Davina and him. Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor always surprises me when I see them together, don’t know why it’s not exactly a new relationship

@OhWhyNot

I was surprised that Elle MacPherson was in a relationship (some reports they are engaged) to Andrew Wakefield (yes the disgraced Doctor)

And Raquel Welch with Nigel Lythgoe (Nasty Nigel from Popstars)

Bloody hell Racquel Welch and that weird Nigel from pop stars?!!!

Mind I still can't get over les Dennis and Amanda Holden..and then Amanda Holden having an affair with Neil Morrison!

I watched that abs remember being surprised too!

What a great documentary it was though-she is inspiring!

How rude. They have been together a few years now. They do a really good podcast called Making the Cut together.
