Vernon Kay having 'mixed feelings' as he approaches his milestone 50th birthday

TV star Vernon Kay is reaching a milestone birthday in April 2024, and with his wife, Tess Daly, and their daughters by his side, there's no better time to be entering a new decade

But in 2010, their marriage was tested when Vernon admitted he’d been texting Rhian Sugden, now 37, behind his wife’s back after meeting the glamour model in a Bolton nightclub. Vernon, who was a BBC Radio 1 DJ at the time, addressed the scandal with a public apology, saying: "You may or may not be aware that because of some foolish and stupid decisions I have made, I have disappointed and I have let down a lot of people. But the indiscretion didn't break the couple, and in 2023, they celebrated their 20th anniversary of being married, with Tess describing them as "soulmates" as she revealed they "just have a real laugh" together.
