…AND HER HUSBAND

-

WORK commitment­s mean Holly’s TV executive husband Dan Baldwin is only going to join her for five days out of the five weeks she is in Oz. She said: ‘It’s the longest we’ve been apart; it’s rubbish.’

Holly says she has had only three boyfriends, and married the third one. They met in 2004 when he was the producer on the kids TV show Ministry Of Mayhem, but it was six months before romance blossomed.

They married in 2007 holding their reception at Amberley Castle, Sussex. Holly walked down the aisle to the theme tune from Disney’s The Slipper And The Rose. She said: ‘I’d fantasised about being married since I was a little girl and dressed up in my mum’s wedding dress.’

Dan was executive producer on Celebrity Juice and now produces Holly’s game show Play To The Whistle via his independen­t media company, Hungry Bear.

In February it emerged that Dan went to the notorious Presidents Club party where hostesses were groped and harassed.

He was named on the seating plan along with Dragons’ Den star Peter Jones, who is chairman of Hungry Bear, and who was said to be shocked after Holly ditched plans to launch a lifestyle website, Truly, with him only a month before it was meant to go live.

Dan’s career — while successful — is on a rather lesser scale to hers but she has never acknowledg­ed the fact. She said: ‘Marriage is something you have to look after and work at. It’s really important to do that and I’m very lucky that I count Dan as one of my best friends — he’s also a friend that I think is quite hot.’
