Carol Vorderman says 'I've got so much in my life' as she makes love life confession

Carol Vorderman says she has "so much in my life" as she made a confession about her love life. Carol, 64, has been married twice and was in a long term relationship with broadcaster Des Kelly.

The couple however went their separate ways in 2006 and Carol says she has "basically been single" ever since. And in 2022 Carol revealed she no longer sought a monogamous relationship, instead opting to have a number of "special friends".She says having multiple partners allowed her to live a "much freer" life. Speaking on This Morning in 2022, Carol said: "Our mothers told us that we should marry when we were still 18 or 19 or 20, so we grew up with that convention that you should find one partner for life. My view is not quite like that."

She added: "I live my life in chapters, and you said and this chapter since I was about 50. So for the last decade or so, I've lived a life which is much freer.

"I've never felt freer. So I have ignored looking for one person and I have a number of what I've called 'special friends'."

Speaking to Yours magazine, Carol joked that she's "not going to talk about how many friends I now have - or don't" but admits she has "never been happier single". She revealed she has had "medium-term" partners since Des but has largely remained single.

She said: "I know I've had what I call medium-term boyfriends for a year or so, but I've basically been single for about 15 years.

"I have a very close-knit family, great friends, and my two children. We adore each other. I feel like I don't need love because I've got so much in my life."

Carol married first husband Christopher Mather in 1985, but they divorced in 1986 after just a year of marriage. Carol next married husband Patrick King in 1990, but the pair divorced in 2020. The pair share two children; Katie King and Cameron King.

Last year Carol opened up about her love life and revealed she isn't keen on walking down the aisle again. When asked about a possible wedding by Saga, she replied: "No, I don't want that."

Although she revealed pals have been keen to set her up with a man. "Even my closest friends will still say to me, 'What about so and so?'," she revealed.

Carol explained she is comfortable spending time on her own and has enjoyed the liberties of single life. She added: "If I want to go on a cruise on the fjords I'll happily go on my own - I don't feel I need to have a partner."

tar expressed her satisfaction with her life and her own company, saying: "I'm happy with my life, happy with my own company," and "I'm looking forward to what is coming next."
