Comedian Lenny Henry, who hosts Channel 4’s Legends of Comedy, gave a blunt response when asked whether he would marry long-time girlfriend Lisa Makin following his divorce from Dawn French.
Lenny and fellow TV star Dawn French married in 1984 at St Paul’s Church in Covent Garden, and later adopted a daughter, Billie. After over 24 years of marriage, the pair announced they had split in 2010 after keeping it under wraps for some time.
“The separation is entirely amicable and they fully intend to maintain their close friendship,” a statement revealed. “Their priority is to commit to the future joint parenting of their daughter.”
