Kelly Brook’s Colorful Love Life: Four Engagements and Romances with Jason Statham and Danny Cipriani Before Marrying Jeremy Parisi

Kelly Brook gave fans an insight into her marriage after she and her husband Jeremy Parisi took part in Celebrity Race Across The World last year. 

However now the former model, 45, is stepping out of her comfort zone alone after parachuting her way into the I’m A Celeb jungle ahead of the new series on Sunday. 

Kelly and her husband Jeremy tied the knot in July 2022 after they began dating over a decade ago back in 2014. 

However prior to her married bliss with the Italian model, Kelly had been engaged four times to a string of big-name exes including two Hollywood stars and even a Gladiator.

Most notable she spent seven years with her ex fiancé Hollywood hardman Jason Statham.

And earlier this week the former model revealed why their relationship really ended, explaining she ‘fell out of love with him’ after being left ‘neglected’ when his Hollywood career began to flourish.

As well as Jason, Kelly also dated actor Billy Kane before starting a romance with rugby bad boy Danny Cipriani. 

She then moved on with fellow rugby star Thom Evans, who is now engaged to Nicole Scherzinger, and went on to enjoy a brief fling with Gladiator David McIntosh.

Jason Statham: 1997-2004 

Kelly dated The Meg actor between 1997 and 2004, and he even popped the question in that period. 

However the star has previously admitted that whenever she tried to talk to Jason about getting married or having a baby he didn’t want to commit. 

Speaking on Elizabeth Day’s podcast How To Fail, Kelly detailed how the romance fell apart, explaining she ended things after he failed to show up for her, the way she did for him.  

Kelly confessed: ‘I think definitely in my first relationship there was definitely elements of co-dependency. There were elements of me putting my career and my life on hold.’

Kelly had a good job at MTV at the time however the pair moved to Los Angeles and Jason soon began to find success on the silver screen, eventually becoming one of Hollywood’s biggest action stars, with her as his ‘support network’.

However, she confessed that while his career skyrocketed, her own ‘floundered’, admitting that she felt ‘neglected’ when he failed to give her the same support that she’d given him.

‘His career just took off and it just became the most incredible thing because I did so much and didn’t look after myself, I just felt so neglected in that dynamic and to the point where I actually fell out of love with him in the end because he hadn’t showed up for me like I’d showed up for him, I didn’t feel.’

She explained that she made the call to end the relationship because she felt Jason ‘didn’t know who I was anymore’, and while it was difficult it was ‘the best decision’.

Kelly said: ‘So we broke up and I think he just turned around to me and was like, “Why are you leaving now? Look I’m a movie star and I’m a millionaire, why now?”

‘And I was like, “You just haven’t been there, you haven’t been there for me and I need to become a woman. During this process, I’ve become a woman and I don’t think you know who I am anymore. You know the girl that quit MTV and came with you, but you don’t know the woman”.

‘So it was just a really hard time, but I think that was the first time where I really did something for myself and it was the best decision.’

Jason went on to find love with Victoria’s Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in 2010, with the pair now engaged and parents to children, Jack, eight, and Isabella, three. 

At the time of their split Kelly also told Hello! Magazine that she was a different person to the young woman who fell in love with Jason.

She said: ‘I’m not the same as I was when we met. I’m a lot more complex now – a lot more high maintenance. And sometimes you don’t know what you want until it hits you.’

Back in 2019 Kelly referred to Jason as ‘skint’, and was left visibly squirming when her now ‘multi-millionaire action hero’ ex was referenced on her Heart FM Breakfast Show by her co-host Ashley Roberts.

Begging her fellow presenters to stop talking about the Hollywood actor, Kelly made a dig at her former flame by declaring: ‘He was skint when I was there. Trust me.’

Meanwhile in 2014, she referred to Jason as a ‘pig’ and claimed that he had reached out to her to tell her he loved her, during a brief split from Rosie. 

Billy Zane: 2004-2008

Fiancé number two was another actor – American Billy Zane, now 59. 

Kelly revealed that Jason not wanting to commit to marriage or children is partly the reason she got swept up in a romance with Billy after the pair met on the set of Survival Island, also known as Three, in 2004.

The couple became engaged and lived together in a £1 million farmhouse in Kent before their split in 2008 after Kelly reportedly decided ‘Billy is not the man she wants to marry.’ 

Although they rekindled their romance for the last time at the beginning of 2008, the wedding was off again with Kelly announcing that she was too young to marry at the age of 28.

It then appeared that the £35,000 engagement ring wasn’t enough to keep them together after they split for good in September 2008.

She previously told Weekend Magazine: ‘Jason was my first love. Billy was never going to be somebody I wanted to spend my life with. It was a fling.

‘I knew the relationship with Billy would either make us or break us, and it broke us. Jason says even to this day, “It was my ego. I couldn’t get my head around it”.’ 

She went into detail about their fiery exchanges and revealed he had thrown all her clothes away in one particular heated argument, adding that she never had a ‘real life with him’ and it was rather a ‘fantasy fairytale’.

Describing her four years with Billy, she revealed it involved endless private jets and first class flights to the world’s most exclusive destinations, although he didn’t have a home at the time.

She said: ‘I was paying for most of that. I’d done well for myself but suddenly I was living this lifestyle and thinking I can’t keep up with this. I guess if you’ve been a Hollywood movie star for many years, it’s hard to live with me in Sydenham.

‘That was part of the reason I didn’t marry him. As soon as the next muse came along he’d be off and I wasn’t prepared to share everything I’d worked for with someone who didn’t deserve it.’

Billy was previously married to Lisa Collins from 1989 to 1995.

At the time Kelly shaded her exes saying on the radio: ‘I’ve not really had, I mean this is a bit mean to say but I’m going to be honest – I haven’t really had any memorable engagements. 

‘No like big grand gestures of like of romance or anything.’

Danny Cipriani : 2008-2010

After Billy, Kelly dated rugby player Danny Cipriani for two years, from 2008 until 2010.

The model is said to have dumped the sportsman after he allegedly cheated on her and she found messages to other women on his mobile phone. 

Danny and Kelly both accused each other of cheating, with the model writing in her 2014 autobiography that the rugby star was so busy chasing women he could not find time to flush the loo.

Meanwhile in his own 2023 book Danny claimed Kelly was unfaithful to her then-boyfriend Thom Evans with him by going on a secret holiday together.

Danny revealed how hurt he was over Kelly and teammate Thom’s relationship after she moved on with him and the pair dated between 2010 and 2012.

Danny told The Sun on Sunday: ‘I felt like it was fair game… I felt like what was mine wasn’t mine any more. I was friends with Thom. It was definitely a difficult scenario.’

He claimed that he and Kelly secretly met up in Mauritius when she was still in a relationship with Thom, despite Danny’s feelings that it was immoral.

The Daily Mail contacted both Danny and Kelly’s representatives for comment at the time.

The couple broke up in June 2010, and it wasn’t long before Kelly was dating his friend in the November, leaving Danny heartbroken. 

He claimed when he was away in Australia working for the Melbourne Rebels, Kelly continued to message him leaving the sportsman confused. 

Yet despite Danny thinking Kelly was what he wanted, he admitted that even once they got back together it wasn’t the fairy tale ending he had hoped. 

He revealed:  ‘When you love someone, when you’re with your soulmate, it’s difficult. It’s challenging. I didn’t have that type of relationship with Kelly. And it just wasn’t love… for me.’

When Kelly and Thom eventually split in January 2013, she denied speculation that Danny was involved and claimed that her and Thom had mutually agreed to go their separate ways. 

Her and Danny rekindled things for a quick fling, however the stint didn’t last after she found X-rated messages from scores of other women on his mobile.

Thom Evans: 2010-2013  

Scottish international rugby union player Thom Evans, now 40, was Kelly’s third husband-to-be, and they dated from 2010 to 2013.

The pair sadly suffered two miscarriages during their time together and after losing their first child in May 2011, the pair became engaged.

Just this week, model Kelly reflected on the heartbreak she faced when she suffered a miscarriage while six months pregnant. 

Speaking on the How To Fail podcast with Elizabeth Day, she said: ‘In my thirties, I got pregnant and it was with somebody that I hadn’t been with for very long, and it was really a case of like, “well, I’m in my thirties. This might be my last roll of the dice. Maybe I should just do this.

‘He’s a nice guy, maybe this is it. Maybe it’s that whole taxi light thing goes off and this is what we’re going to do”.

Kelly said Thom really wanted to have a baby and that she while she was initially hesitant about becoming mother due to her own relationship with her mum, she was soon excited.

She continued: ‘Lo and behold I had a miscarriage at six months, which was the most traumatic, horrific thing that I’ve ever been through. It was just the most devastating thing.

‘It took me quite a long time for my body and for everything to kind of, I don’t think you ever fully recover from that, but our relationship didn’t survive that and I just had to pick myself back up and just move forward.’

In 2020 Kelly appeared to take a swipe at Thom as she reflected on her tendency to date younger men.  to her 

She told Closer Magazine: ‘I used to work like a maniac and go after people who were not always kind to me. In my 30s I was dating really young guys who didn’t even know where they were going with their lives…

‘I mean, I was pregnant with someone who was on Celeb X Factor! How is that my life? I’m not saying it was Thom’s fault, it probably wasn’t the right time and there’s no resentment.’

Thom is now engaged to Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger after he popped the question in 2023.

David McIntosh: 2014-2015 

For her fourth engagement, Kelly dated Gladiator competitor David McIntosh, now 39. 

The couple were together for less than a year before they split in January 2015.

David proposed after just 11 weeks of dating before they suffered an extremely acrimonious split six months later.

His proposal came as a shock as Kelly had already dumped him once, just two weeks earlier, and wiped all traces of him from her social media channels.

According to The Sun, Kelly was left ‘dumbstruck’ by his proposal – but took just ‘three seconds’ to accept.

A friend told the paper: ‘It’s still a closely guarded secret and came to Kelly as a massive shock.

‘But she’s at that time in her life now where she wants to make a commitment and she has fallen head over heels for David.’

Despite her willingness to commit, Kelly broke things off just six months later after the former Gladiator was accused of cheating on her with ex Sarah Harper during their engagement.

Confirming the news in 2014, she tweeted: ‘It’s a sad day but I wanted to share with you that David and I are no longer engaged. I love and respect him and wish him all the best.’

According to The Sun, Kelly warned Sarah that David was ‘cruel and mean,’ adding: ‘I fell out of love with him a while ago. He is a needy, insecure man that will never treat a woman right.

‘His cooking is s*** too. I won’t miss any of it. We both deserve better. He used you and me.’ 

Friends had previously told how Kelly was growing tired of him and having second thoughts about their relationship before he was accused of cheating on her.

‘Kelly got tired of the relationship and David trying to hog the limelight,’ a source told The Sun. ‘She realised he was enjoying the fame a bit too much and wasn’t as serious about her as she thought.’

Jeremy Parisi: 2014- Now

Kelly first met hunky French model Jeremy in 2014 after watching one of his Instagram videos.

Kelly fell for Jeremy after she reached out to him directly on Instagram and the pair connected over their mutual love of martial arts and fitness training.

During the early days of their romance, Jeremy spoke very little English, with French and Italian being his primary languages.

The radio host took on the role of translator and admits she can still speak on Jeremy’s behalf even now he’s fluent in English.

The pair tied the knot in Italy in 2022.

She has previously said: ‘I know people think I talk over Jeremy all the time. That’s because I talk too much and when Jeremy first moved to the UK, he didn’t speak any English, so I became so used to talking for him and I’ve just not got out the habit of it.’

Kelly has revealed she’s turned down work if it means being apart from Jeremy, explaining: ‘I’m very co-dependent and I think Jeremy and I just wanna be together all the time.

‘Well, I definitely wanna be with him all the time, not sure he would say the same.

‘We like to go off and work separately, but I think in the evenings, we really pride ourselves on having dinner together, that’s really sacred to us. My marriage is really sacred.’

In September Kelly revealed that the couple made a conscious decision not to have children together, but admitted the reality still weighs on her mind.

‘The time has probably run out, I don’t know, I just have to get my head around it,’ she reflected.

She continued: ‘If our marriage doesn’t end up successful in the long term, how would I feel seeing him go on and have children with other people?

‘We made the decision early on that we wouldn’t have children, but I can’t say I wouldn’t be heartbroken.’

‘I met the love of my life so late, I met him at like 36!’ she said, adding that they had both agreed to prioritise a calmer lifestyle.

‘We just wanted a nice, peaceful life together,’ she admitted, explaining that neither she nor Jeremy felt drawn to the chaos of raising young children.
