Television star Denise Van Outen has remained a popular public figure since becoming a household name, whether that be due to her career or eventful love life.
The former Big Breakfast host, who is making an appearance on Sunday Brunch this weekend (January 24), is no stranger to a high-profile relationship, many of which have been well-documented.
Denise Van Outen was engaged to Jay Kay from Jamiroquai
From 1998 until 2001, Denise was in a relationship with Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay. In 1999, the pair got engaged. At the time, Jay said (via BBC)” “No one else is like her at all. She’s bonkers and makes me laugh, I wouldn’t want anyone else.”
However, Denise and Jay Kay never tied the knot as they called their whole romance off in 2001.
We hardly get to see each other.
He previously explained: “If Denise and I get to spend five days together it’s a bonus. We hardly get to see each other because of our schedules.” He added: “We may go out once in a while and when we do we always get recognised. Some people notice Denise and haven’t got a clue who I am.”
Jamiroquai’s 2001 hit single Little L is said to be about his relationship with the Essex-born presenter.
“Jay and I are still really good friends and people are speculating so much about why we broke up,” Denise explained following their engagement.
“The reason was work-related but we’re still both happy and still speaking to each other.”
Denise started a family with ex-husband Lee Mead
In 2009, Denise married actor Lee Mead, who she divorced in 2015 but had already split from in 2013. A year after they walked down the aisle, they welcomed their daughter, Betsy.
