The Mirror, the 80-year-old revealed his glow is all natural.The couple have been married since 1968 before Dickinson found success as an antique expert.

The couple reportedly first met in back in the 1960s in a Manchester nightclub when Lorne was a cabaret singer and David was a struggling antique dealer."Coming from a working-class background has helped keep me down-to-earth," he said."I remember well not having any money, but now I’m older and I’ve got a foot in both camps.“I’ve been very lucky all my life, always making money… Maybe I’ve got natural trading ability within my DNA.

By the age of 14, I was buying wheels and selling them to other kids for their go-karts.”However, the eccentric TV personality soon gained many fans (and a few million pounds) when he began presenting Bargain Hunt.

The show catapulted him into stardom.He now presents Dickinson’s Real Deal on ITV, where the team travels the country in search of a good deal.Local people can then choose whether to accept cash for their antiques or gamble at auction.“He has a lot of big fans," Lorne said.
