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!".
