Ana Robinson has officially confirmed that she is coming out queen camillathe ex husband Andrew Parker Bowles.
Unconfirmed reports late last year suggested the former Weakest Link host, 79, and the retired cavalry officer, 84, were in a relationship.
And now the television star has settled the rumors, according to what he said. Saga Magazine: ‘Yes. Final point. Mind your own business.’
However, this is not Anne and Andrew’s first rodeo, as they have both been married twice before and have children from their respective relationships.
But who are Anne Robinson’s previous husbands? MailOnline looks at the family life of the famous presenter and the men who managed to tame the Queen of Evil.
Anne Robinson has officially confirmed that she is dating Queen Camilla’s ex-husband, Andrew Parker Bowles.
Andrew divorced Camilla in 1995 after 22 years of marriage, but they remain close friends, despite a complicated history that included infidelity on both sides (pictured in 2020).
The former Countdown presenter was married twice before her romance with Andrew Parker-Bowles.
Anne met her first husband, Charlie Wilson, while working as a journalist for The Daily Mail. She was the publication’s first female intern in 1967.
A year later, in 1968, she married Charlie Wilson, but had to quit her job because at the time married couples were not allowed to work together.
In 1970, Anne gave birth to her only daughter, Emma, and later began working for The Sunday Times.
In 1973, their union fell apart and the couple became embroiled in a bitter divorce process, fighting for custody of Emma when she was just two years old.
Anne’s ex-husband was awarded sole custody of their son; Anne was drinking a lot at the time.
In 1980, Anne married another journalist, John Penrose, but the couple separated 27 years later.
The iconic television host was in the prime of her career when the two decided to divorce on September 30, 2007 due to “irreconcilable differences.”
Anne, now 79, married journalist Charles Wilson in 1968 (pictured). In 1970 the couple had a daughter, Emma Wilson.
Emma Wilson was born to her mother Anne and father Charlie in 1970. She lived with her father after he gained sole custody of her at the age of two, until she went to boarding school at 16 (pictured in 2016 ).
In 1980, Anne married another journalist, John Penrose, but the couple separated 27 years later, citing “irreconcilable differences” (pictured: John and Ann in 1999).
As such, her split from John reportedly cost Anne a whopping £20 million, according to OK!.
However, the Weakest Link star was reportedly able to have his mansion on Long Island, his cottage in Gloucestershire, his house in London, and his penthouse in New York.
Ann told MailOnline it was like an “everyday car accident” once the couple decided to go their separate ways.
“I was taken aback because I had decided that was what I wanted. I didn’t expect it to be so emotional, so it really took me by surprise.
‘You deceive yourself. You think you’re not going to pay a bill, but you feel like you’re walking around with someone else’s reading glasses.
“I think we were both very sad. We would have to have hearts of stone not to do it. You feel quite depressed. You feel quite sad for a while for no good reason.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Ann revealed that her success put pressure on her marriage to John.
‘No mother puts her child on her knee and teaches him what to do when he grows up and marries someone who makes more money and might even be smarter than him.
Anne was at the peak of her career at the time and the divorce reportedly cost her £20 million (pictured: John and Anne in 2001).
‘The Queen Of Mean’ Anne had previously kept quiet about their romance. When she was asked about her relationship, she replied: “It’s none of your business” (pictured in 2007).
“There are few happy husbands under those circumstances, and I’m surprised Penrose and I have come as far as we have.”
However, it seems Anne has now found happiness after confirming her relationship with Andrew.
The star’s romance with the 83-year-old retired army brigadier was supposedly an ‘open secret’ in high places.
A mutual friend told the Sun: “They have judiciously avoided being photographed together because they both wanted to keep this a secret for as long as possible.”
‘Annie proudly tells everyone that she is the daughter of a chicken salesman and is as far from rich as possible. Frankly, she trumps any plot The Crown can come up with.”
The source added that she remained “fiercely independent and self-sufficient” and that there was “no chance” of the couple moving in together.

Speaking about returning to the dating scene in her seventies, after being single for more than a decade, she told Saga: “I had been out of the game for so long.” And I don’t drink either. If you don’t drink, you’re not that reckless, right?
‘I’m a big believer in surprising yourself by taking risks. Personally and professionally. Who does not risk does not win. If the worst thing that can happen is an egg falling on your face, that’s not terrible, right?
On why dating may be easier in old age, he said: “You’re much more selective about what’s going to make you angry.” Nothing matters that much. You’re not going to change.’
Meanwhile, he married Camilla in 1973 and they had two children together, Tom and Laura, before divorcing in 1995.
The king, who divorced Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1996, married Camilla in April 2005 at the Guildhall in Windsor.
