BBC’s Carol Kirkwood drops candid romance confession about husband ‘No such thing’
BBC star Carol Kirkwood gave an insight into her life off-screen as she shared an admission about her husband
BBC star Carol Kirkwood has given fans an insight into her life off-screen as she admitted that there is “no such thing as the perfect romance”. The weather presenter, who has been a fixture at the BBC for 27 years, married police officer Steve, 49, in December 2023.
Nine years before that, she divorced her first husband, property developer Jimmy Kirkwood. The pair split in 2008 after 18 years of marriage, with the divorce finalised in 2012. Speaking to the Daily Mirror, the BBC veteran, 63, confessed: “I feel sad when relationships break down. I was married before, and we got divorced, and it’s always sad when that happens. But, of course, there isn’t such a thing, I don’t think, as the perfect romance – where you’re never going to fall out or have cross words. Of course you are, that’s life.” However, she also recently made a cheeky comment when asked about her second marriage, telling one newspaper: “Love is lovelier the second time around. No disrespect to my first husband, but this is better.”
Carol and Steve married in an intimate ceremony in 2023
Despite there being a 13-year age gap between her and her new beau, Carol and Steve got hitched in an “intimate” wedding ceremony in Buckinghamshire almost two years ago.
Speaking about her special day, she added: “The wedding was the most perfect day. Storm Gerrit was raging outside and we didn’t even notice.
“It was about us getting married rather than having a big, fancy wedding. We had no guests and wrote our own vows. When you are older, you know more what you want.”
Carol has been married once before
Explaining how she met him, Carol added that she believes it was fate. She said: “We were at a function neither of us wanted to go to. It was a Sliding Doors moment – if I hadn’t gone, we would never have met.”
Carol shared that she is soon looking to retire, with her and Steve hoping for a new life abroad. The published author shared: “We fell in love with Majorca, which is where we went so I could research my fifth novel, Meet Me at Sunset, about a woman running away from a shattered love affair.
“Steve and I plan to escape and travel for some time when we retire, perhaps in a year or two. We’ll travel in a camper van or get in the car, cross over to France and then just drive.”
