Vernon Kay, a host of BBC Radio 2, has been married to Tess Daly, a presenter of Strictly Come Dancing for more than 20 years. He has since admitted there is one thing they still regret.
BBC Radio 2 presenter Vernon Kay has opened up about his wedding day, revealing there’s one element of the special occasion he’ll always regret.
Despite exchanging vows with Strictly Come Dancing co-presenter Tess Daly more than two decades ago, he admitted that one choice the couple made before their big day continues to play on his mind.
He explained to a listener on his daily Radio 2 show this morning (Tuesday, 23 September) that he still feels bad about not having his special day with Tess on film, adding that it is just another expense in addition to the wine, the food, the fish, and all that kid-related costs. We didn’t have a videographer, so we’re now like “aghh,” looking back.
Previously, Vernon had revealed that he and Tess had met each other completely by accident at a BBC Christmas bash.
It was back in 2001, when they were both at the beginning of their broadcasting journeys, that they faced the peculiar task of creating their own interpretation of Britney Spears’ hit …Baby One More Time music video at the festive celebration.
The couple tied the knot in 2003 just two years after their initial meeting, and Amber, their second child, was born in October 2003, along with their eldest daughter, Phoebe.
It’s fair to say that Vernon and Tess have been together for more than 20 years, and the co-host of Strictly, who recently spoke with Hello magazine, was eager to pay tribute to him by saying: “Vernon’s also a brilliant dad. He attends netball games to cheer on, and we never miss a concert.
She continued, “I’m aware that you don’t get these precious moments back.”
The couple’s romance has grown on them over the years, but Vernon took Ken Bruce’s sought-after mid-morning position on BBC Radio 2 in 2023.
He had previously appeared on Radio 1 frequently and had intervened whenever Zoe Ball was unable to air her program.
Similar to Tess, she pursued modeling before beginning her television career in the early 2000s, hosting Strictly Come Dancing as co-host in 2004.
