Cat Deeley's wedding ring confession before Patrick Kielty marriage split
This Morning host Cat Deeley once admitted that her wedding ring wasn't brand new when she wed RTÉ One's The Late Late Show presenter, Patrick Kielty. The special piece carries deep sentimental value, tracing its history back to the 1940s. During an appearance on the Outspoken Beauty podcast, the 48-year-old opened up about various aspects of her life, from motherhood and beauty tips, to her professional journey. When discussing confidence, presenter Nicola Bonn remarked to Cat: "I think a lot of people would say you are a traditional beauty, but I like that, I love imperfections as well. "Like, my wedding ring is bent now and it's got a little diamond missing but I'm like, no, that's like marriage, marriage is a bit bent." Patrick Kielty and Cat Deeley share two sons Cat responded in agreement: "Exactly." Cat, who presents the This Morning alongside Ben Shephard, then revealed more about her treasured wedding band. She disclosed in 2020: "My wedding ring is actually my nan's wedding ring. And it says, I think, 'Lil and Jim 1942' in it. "I think my grandad got it from under the counter because there was no gold because it was after the war, so very similar." The television personality and 54-year-old Patrick tied the knot during a private ceremony in Rome in 2012, surrounded by their nearest and dearest. The couple are parents to two boys, Milo, nine, and James, six, whom they shield from media attention.

In a joint statement, they said via a spokesperson: "We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. "We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment." Since the announcement, both presenters have kept quiet on their respective social media accounts. Cat will also steer clear of appearing on-screen as the news becomes public knowledge, owing to her planned break from ITV during the summer period. Patrick's most recent public tribute to his wife dates back to 2024 when she stepped in for Holly Willoughby on the programme. Cat Deeley took over from Holly Willoughby on This Morning Sharing a collection of her photos on Instagram, he penned: "I didn't know what a morning person actually was until I met this woman. "She gets up every day with a smile on her face. [At] 5.30am, whistling in the shower, smile on her face. "Then downs two coffees, and gives you the look. The 'What the f**k's wrong with you, let's do this'." He continued: "It's not a pretend smile. And it's not just some mornings. It's every morning. Which is b****y difficult cos she's married to me. "I should also mention she likes a chat. To anyone. About anything. Anywhere. If there's anyone in the world made for a show called @thismorning, it's this human." Patrick ended his post by wishing his wife success in her new role, humorously adding: "Strap yourself in @benshephardofficial. And welcome to my world. We couldn't be prouder of you @catdeeley Go get 'em mama!".

Mel Gibson set to return to Meath for Braveheart anniversary
Mel Gibson will return to Co Meath next week to mark the 30th anniversary of the Academy Award-winning movie 'Braveheart'. The Hollywood actor directed, produced and starred in the 1995 film which, despite its Scottish setting, was primarily shot in Ireland. Many of the medieval scenes were shot across the landscapes of Kildare, Meath and Wicklow. Braveheart was primarily set in Ireland. Pic: Sunset Boulevard/Corbis via Getty Images Mel is returning to the town of Trim as part of the King John's Summer Prom Festival, which will take place next weekend. The movie was originally set to be filmed in Scotland but tax incentives, as well as the availability of members of the Defence Forces to act as extras, helped the Hollywood star seal the deal with Irish producer Morgan O'Sullivan and then Minister for the Arts, Michael D Higgins in 1994. 'Braveheart' had an estimated budget of $72 million (€62.9 million) and proved to be a huge success, getting nominated in 10 categories at the 68th Academy Awards and winning five awards including Best Picture. Trim Castle was portrayed as the fortified English town of 'York' while the 'London square' was also created on the other side of the castle wall. Mel portrayed the character of Scottish warrior William Wallace in the First War of Scottish Independence against King Edward I of England. Braveheart won Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture. Pic: Steve Starr CORBIS/Corbis via Getty Images The 69-year-old will be signing posters at Trim Castle Hotel on the morning of Saturday 9 August with all proceeds going towards the Irish Equity Benevolent Fund, providing emergency assistance to people in financial difficulty. He will be joined by many other cast members in Trim to attend a screening of the film on Saturday night, as well as a number of concerts. 'Braveheart' is the theme for this year's King John Summer Prom Festival and organisers are promising a weekend of 'cinematic soundscapes, soaring vocals and symphonic wonder'. The Irish Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Niall O'Sullivan will be among the other acts performing at the festival. It is described as the 'largest orchestral festival on the island of Ireland' with almost 300 performers from home and abroad taking to the stage.
