‘And while not exactly magazine material, we don’t care because we absolutely love it here, especially this hotel and will never not.’

Enjoying a meal at La Colombe d’Or restaurant in the village of Saint-Paul de Vence, the couple smiled for a photo.

In the update, which Carol shared to Instagram, she included a series of snaps from over the years as they rang in each anniversary in a different location.

She captioned: ‘This week we celebrated our 16th anniversary (meeting not wedding). I can hardly believe it.’

The broadcaster continued: ‘Lots of changes in our lives but we still love doing all the same things together and being in each other’s company more than ever. Here’s to the next 16.’
