Anne Robinson is in a ‘SECRET relationship with Camilla’s ex-husband Andrew Parker Bowles and they have been dating for a year’<\/h1>\n

Anne Robinson has been in a secret relationship with Queen Camilla’s ex-husband Andrew Parker Bowles for a year, according to reports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The former Countdown host, 79, who has the TV nickname ‘The Queen of Mean’, is said to have found love with the twice-married\u00a0retired Army brigadier, 83, after being introduced by a mutual friend.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Their relationship is said to be an ‘open secret’ within upper circles, with Andrew a regular plus one at Anne’s dinner parties at her 17th century home in the Cotswolds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to insiders, one of their first dates was a dinner party attended by ex Prime Minister\u00a0David Cameron, with Andrew able to ‘poke fun’ at the presenter, who is known for her sharp tongue.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When asked about their romance by\u00a0The Sun, Anne, who has also been married twice, hit back: ‘It’s none of your business’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Andrew divorced Camilla in 1995 after 22 years of marriage, but remain close friends \u2013 despite a complicated history which included infidelity on both parts (pictured in 2020)<\/p>\n

A source told the publication:\u00a0‘They have judiciously avoided being photographed together as they both wanted to keep this quiet for as long as possible.<\/p>\n

‘Annie proudly tells everyone she is the daughter of a market trader chicken-seller and is as far removed from a toff as could be – frankly it beats any storyline The Crown\u00a0could possibly come up with.<\/p>\n

‘Annie and Andrew get on splendidly, she makes him laugh, a lot, and he is one of the few people to get away with poking fun at her.\u00a0 She loves to joke she’s “new money”.’<\/p>\n

The insider ironically pointed out Anne went to ‘boarding school, her father got a double first and she holidayed for part of the summer at The Carlton in Cannes’ – when she wasn’t working behind her mother’s stall.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Both Anne and Andrew have been married twice.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anne married journalist Charles Wilson in 1968. In 1970 the couple had a daughter, Emma Wilson, who became a British radio disc jockey. Their marriage broke down in 1973.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The presenter went on to marry\u00a0journalist John Penrose in 1980, but they split in 2007 and\u00a0announced they were planning to divorce, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Andrew, meanwhile, divorced Camilla in 1995 after 22 years of marriage, but remain close friends – despite a complicated history which included infidelity on both parts.<\/p>\n

Camilla was famously Charles\u2019s mistress during her marriage to Andrew, while the latter is described by friends as having been \u2018very naughty with women\u2019 throughout.<\/p>\n

Anne\u00a0Robinson married journalist John Penrose in 1980. On 30 September 2007, the couple announced that they were planning to divorce, citing “irreconcilable difference’\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Both Anne and Andrew have been married twice. Anne married journalist Charles Wilson in 1968. In 1970 the couple had a daughter, Emma Wilson, who became a British radio disc jockey<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Anne previously revealed back in 2017 how she had quit dating app Tinder an hour after getting it<\/p>\n

They have two children: food writer Tom, 48, and Laura Lopes, 45, an artist.<\/p>\n

Andrew first met Camilla in the late 1960s and they dated on and off for several years before marrying in 1973.<\/p>\n

According to Andrew\u2019s cousin John Bowes Lyon, the couple were pressured into making the commitment when both their fathers published an engagement notice for them in The Times.<\/p>\n

Andrew and Camilla divorced in 1995, saying in a statement that \u2018throughout our marriage we have always tended to follow rather different interests, but in recent years we have led completely separate lives.\u2019<\/p>\n

The following year, he married his long-term mistress Rosemary Pitman. They were together until Rosemary passed away in 2010 of cancer, aged 69.<\/p>\n

At the time of her death it was reported that Camilla was \u2018deeply saddened\u2019 by the news.<\/p>\n

Andrew was a guest at Charles and Camilla\u2019s wedding in April 2005, attending their service of blessing at St George\u2019s Chapel, Windsor.<\/p>\n

Anne previously revealed back in 2017 how she had quit dating app Tinder an hour after getting it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The former Weakest Link presenter\u00a0complained potential matches on the app offered ‘slim pickings’ and added she didn’t want to date a ‘bald man with a moustache’.<\/p>\n

Discussing her short-lived stint on Tinder, she told The Sun: ‘I don\u2019t want to date someone bald and with a moustache.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Charles attended the wedding of Andrew and Camilla’s son, Tom Parker Bowles, in 2005<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Anne is best known as the host of The Weakest Link, which she presented from 2000 to 2017<\/p>\n

‘It is slim pickings out there! I would rename Tinder “desperate”. I have one particular pair of glasses, they are my red glasses and I can pull in them.<\/p>\n

‘I promise you. You need to get red glasses to pull.’<\/p>\n

Anne had her first foray into the world of online dating when she set up a Tinder profile on BBC documentary Britain\u2019s Relationship Secrets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She was quick to dismiss anyone holding an alcoholic beverage in their profile photo, given that Anne has had a well-documented battle with alcohol and is now teetotal.<\/p>\n

She explained she wouldn’t settle for anything less than a company\u00a0CEO.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The former Points Of View front-woman also revealed she champions a healthy appetite for sex as an older woman.<\/p>\n

The Sun\u00a0reported at the time she told them she hopes women of her age are having sex – and divulged her bedroom antics ‘keep me young’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I don\u2019t have a partner at the moment, I\u2019ve had two husbands and they\u2019re lovely. I\u2019m a committee of one,’ she added.<\/p>\n

Anne is\u00a0best known as the host of The Weakest Link, which she presented from 2000 to 2017.<\/p>\n

The presenter spent 13 months as host of Countdown, but stepped down in July last year amid\u00a0rumours of backstage drama.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It was claimed the cast of Countdown were ‘relieved’ Anne was leaving after reports of an on-set feud with Rachel Riley – who Anne reportedly found ‘too noisy’ – and Susie Dent.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She said on Angela Scanlon\u2019s Ask Me Anything on Irish TV: ‘I tried to be nice on Countdown. I loved it but nothing was ever going to be as wonderful as The Weakest Link or being a newspaper journalist.<\/p>\n

‘I probably made a mistake thinking I could replicate it on another game show. [Countdown] is a brilliant show but it does not really require a smart-arse presenter.’<\/p>\n

She added: ‘If you were quite obese, I would say \u2018What do you do when you are not eating?\u2019. But you can\u2019t do that anymore.’<\/p>\n

The presenter, who was employed on a freelance basis, admitted that despite being offered a pay rise, she did not want to join Channel 4’s payroll and so decided to walk away from her role as host.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The Sun, she confessed: ‘I come from a long line of alcoholic, Irish bandits so to suggest I go PAYE is a bit like asking Philip Green or Richard Branson to join the company payroll.<\/p>\n

‘I wasn’t interested in any offer on that basis. Even if it included financial parity. I will, however, miss out on the Channel 4 luncheon vouchers, which is a big regret.’<\/p>\n
