Sarah Greene, a former radio DJ, passed away in 2014, leaving her husband, Mike Smith, as a widow. She later fell in love with one of his oldest friends.
The Finish Line star Sarah Greene once opened up about her love life since the passing of her husband, Mike Smith. Former Blue Peter and Saturday Superstore presenter Sarah, 67, returned to our screens back in 2023 alongside Roman Kemp for the BBC One quiz show. She shared a deeply personal connection between her late husband, the iconic Radio 1 Breakfast Show and Top Of The Pops host who tragically died in 2014 following complications from heart surgery, and her current partner, ex-racing driver Robb Gravett.

According to the TV star, Gravett, a close friend of the couple, was brought into her life as a result of what she perceives to be Mike’s celestial intervention.
In a heartfelt confession from a 2022 episode of My Time Capsule podcast, Greene recalled loving memories of Smith, implying that his influence extends beyond his own life: “I kind of know Mike is pulling so many strings in my life.”
She continued, “He undoubtedly contributed to my meeting with my beloved, who was one of his oldest friends, who waited a while while leaving messages on the answering machine.” I believed he was being kind.
She continued, explaining when the truth struck her, saying, “For God’s sake, Greeno, Robb is trying to make contact with you because he actually wants to take you out, not because he’s kind. So will you simply get up and answer the phone the next time it rings?
“And boy did the conversation start. Because it’s a very strange circumstance, Robb is also very certain, and I’m also very certain.
She explains how she was concerned about the beginning of the relationship, saying, “I remember being terribly concerned and saying to the dear man I’d known for all these years, Isn’t it strange to come into the house and see all these pictures of Mike?” “
He responded, “No, no, it’s not strange. Without them, it would be odd. And keep in mind that I also adore him. “
Sarah acknowledged Roman’s better ability to conceal his emotions when he said, “Roman has a much better poker face than I do. My face is far away, in your eyes. However, I must remind myself that I’m making up Richard Osman for Pointless. That’s where acting comes in.
Back in 2017, Sarah presented This Morning alongside Phillip Schofield, covering for Holly Willoughby, in a throwback to their children’s TV days together. She returned the same year to present alongside Rylan Clark.
