Fearne Cotton new romance

56 replies

Orangesinthebag · 05/03/2025 07:32

So it seems Fearne Cotton left her husband for another man who apparently left his wife of 20 years on Boxing Day & was seen snogging Fearne in public this week. It seems his wife found out he had a new partner from the media.

Why do people behave like this when kids are involved on both sides?

Yes you should end your relationship if you have feelings for someone else rather than have an affair but take it slowly at first surely, particularly if you are in the public eye.
I always liked her but I think this behaviour is a bit crap. Poor kids.

And the new bloke looks a bit ridiculous at 53 with that dyed blonde hair.

If it was an affair that is indeed shitty behaviour and worse for the DC than a breakup with no cheating or new relationships involved.

You’re very lucky if this is what bothers you.

I couldn’t give a shit what 2 strangers do

Lads, we're potentially on the cusp of a new world order. Let Cotton fuck who she likes before the bombs drop. ;-)

And yet you are here both reading the thread and commenting!

It's just idle chat about someone famous who chose to snog in the street knowing she'd likely get papped.

And, as others have said, she does kind of go for a "mother earth" vibe which is why it's interesting (& a bit crap).

I can’t imagine ever giving a shit about this.

Oblomov25 · 05/03/2025 18:30

He left wife Boxing Day. And him and fearne started dating in Jan. oh come on.

Fine, don't read the thread & don't comment then!

Yes very preachy about her life and how healthy and wholesome she is, whilst apparently carrying on behind her husband's back. Nice lady.

Wakemeupbe4yougogo · 05/03/2025 19:37

Fair enough if you're not happy in your marriage, but why do that in public when you can meet behind closed doors and let the dust settle? My Dad left my Mum for an affair partner when I was 12 and the bottom absolutely dropped out of our worlds. It was horrible having to tell family and school friends that my parents had split, and took a long long time to heal from. It's the kids in this mess I feel so very sorry for having walked in their shoes.

NewMarmiteJar · 05/03/2025 22:05

What so because she's had some cookbooks and lifestyle books out she's banned from kissing her fella in the street?

winnieandfred · 05/03/2025 22:14

But if it was Jesse that had potentially had an affair or moved on this quickly no one would bat an eye lid but the woman doing it wow that's different and she should be ashamed especially in the public eye.

LunaNorth · 05/03/2025 22:20

I just feel sad that her glorious wedding dress was wasted. That was one of my favourite celebrity wedding dresses of all time.

<shallow>

She looked beautiful didn’t she ! I loved the dress 😍

Motorroller · 05/03/2025 22:29

I doubt her marriage ending came out of the blue, she’s talked about the struggles and how he was away a lot of the time touring. I’m sure as it usually is, that it took two to tango on both sides. She seems nice enough. I wish her the best.

I would think he was just as crsp tbh, it's not about her being a woman at all.

Jesse’s gorgeous. I doubt he’ll be alone for long.

Motorroller · 05/03/2025 22:37

I don’t find her preachy either, she talks a lot about her own insecurities. I think she also recently had a tumour removed from her neck? I’m guessing life has been not easy. People always have things going on that we don’t know about too.

I agree she was a gorgeous bride, but how was her wedding dress ‘wasted’? She wore it, looked fab, so…?

Easipeelerie · 05/03/2025 23:13

I find her irritating. She the sort of popular person who calls everyone mate. Her ex is more fanciable than she is - to me,

NewMarmiteJar · 05/03/2025 23:43

She used to mildly annoy me yet I am cheering her for this.

Why shouldn't she.

NewMarmiteJar · 05/03/2025 23:46

Not the married man element, just getting on with her life I mean.

I wish I could, 7 years since split I'm a hermit.

The funniest thing about these threads is all the people who comment about how little they give a shit and how lucky op is to only have this to worry about.

Basically saying that they are far too busy and important to care about this, yet here they are reading and commenting 😂

I know, it’s silly. I just wanted the dress to have a happy ending Blush
