Speaking about whether or not marriage is for life, Myleene – whose ex-husband Graham Quinn left her in 2012 after a year of marriage – stated: ‘I’m divorced. I’ve got a blended family.
‘We [she and Simon] have been together 8 years now. He’s got children also. There are children growing up seeing if marriage is working.’
The I’m A Celeb star admitted that after a divorce it can be extremely difficult, explaining: ‘What you’re left with. You can potentially lose your house, half your earnings. You’re in a no mans land not knowing what your right are.
‘I’ve told my children they will never be in that situation. We have very open conversations.’
Discussing her current relationship, Myleene continued: ‘I’m engaged. When my partner Sim, very lovely man, when he came to live in our family home he signed a contract.
Not a prenup because we’re not married, but like a tenancy agreement I suppose, or a co-habitation agreement. He was so sweet, he said ”I don’t need that with you, it’s fine I’ll just sign anything”.
‘I said to him ”no please go and read this. Go and look at the small print says then I know you know what you’re walking into” and if you still walk in with that…
‘It’s not about the romance, you can still have romance. It gives you true clarity. I know what you earn, I know what you have, I know what you’re bringing.

Protective: She also explained how she has put her fortune in a trust to protect her kids from any potential future partners seeing them as a ‘payday’ (Pictured with Ave and Hero in 2002)
Candid: The radio host also admitted that if I she hadn’t had her son, Apollo, following four miscarriages, she wouldn’t be able to talk about baby loss (pictured with son Apollo in 2019)
‘I told my daughters, ”if you get with someone you can’t touch mamma’s money it’s in a trust”, which is true. So no one can look as them think there’s a pay day.
‘This isn’t about the women I also don’t want my son to go into a situation where he could be taken advantage of either.’
In another part of the show, Myleene discussed her campaigning for miscarriage support, telling viewers: ‘Just to give you the idea, the PTSD is the equivalent of a soldier returning from Afganistan 9 months later.
‘Nobody wants to talk about this subject it’s uncomfortable to talk about. There’s no data protection on this. There’s no medical recording. I had four miscarriages. If I didn’t get my son I wouldn’t be able to do this.
‘Previously you’d have to wait to have 3 consecutive miscarriages until you have medical intervention.
‘My next challenge is data collection. Has it happened to family members. I didn’t know it has happened to my aunty 40 years ago. She called me her daughter.’
Spurred on to talk about her own experience of miscarriage and having no help, Nadia – who has previously been open about her baby loss – admitted: ‘I never had a thought I could ask for anything.
Sad: Spurred on to talk about her own experience of miscarriage and having no help, Nadia admitted: ‘It was very painful. It was very difficult’
‘My last miscarriage when there was no heartbeat, they said I could stay in hospital but on the labour ward.
‘So I went home and miscarried there. I didn’t know what to do with the foetus. I ended up putting mine in the freezer because I didn’t know what to do.
‘It was only this morning that someone should have helped me. It was very painful. It was very difficult. I feel time and time again women’s health is put last.’
