JEREMY KYLE FINDS LOVE
IT’S a tale of romance straight from the script of a Jeremy Kyle Show and it stars... Jeremy Kyle.
The TV host famed for grilling people over romantic entanglements has fallen for his children’s former nanny.
Jeremy, 51, and 35-year-old Vicky Burton have been an item for two months, a source has revealed.
They first met when she became the family nanny many years ago.
She was pictured alongside Jeremy, his wife Carla Germaine and two of their three kids on holiday in Barbados in July 2013.
Jeremy and Carla later split and divorced last February – and the romance with Vicky is his first since the 13-year marriage ended.
A pal close to the star said last night: “It’s very early days but he’s very happy.
“The relationship is just starting out so who knows what the future will hold?
“Vicky is much loved by all the family. Jeremy’s children have been at the forefront of his mind. He has dealt with his new romance very sensitively.
“His children have been made aware. He has also told Carla. There’s no animosity. He’s been single for a long time and deserves a bit of happiness.”
Vicky had worked for the family since the children – now aged 13, 10 and seven – were very young.
She left the job nine months ago to pursue other work.
WARRING
News of the romance will fascinate viewers of The Kyle Show in which Jeremy addresses relationship dilemmas in front of the camera.
He has helped hundreds of warring partners face up to their problems since the ITV show launched a decade ago.
But then his own life could form the basis for a show: Two marriages, a wife who had an affair, one cancer scare, a long battle with a crippling gambling addiction and now... a love story.
Jeremy announced he and second wife Carla had broken up 18 months ago, saying said they had “separated amicably” after growing apart.
Confirming the news in a statement he added that they had a “generally happy marriage”.
Days later it was reported that Carla had enjoyed a “passionate affair” with an England Polo player while Jeremy was away in America filming the US version of The Jeremy Kyle Show.
Toyboy James Carr, 25, claimed he and Carla met up for sex “six or seven times”.
Carr told how he had grown close to Carla, then 40, after she went to him for polo lessons in 2012.
He claimed the pair flirted and would often see each other out locally near the home she and Jeremy shared in Ascot, Berks.
Carr and Carla finally became lovers in June 2015 after the 25- year- old s p o r t sman started renting a house across the road from the couple’s mansion.
And that same month Jeremy hinted on his own ITV show that he and Carla were no longer intimate.
