John Leslie was once a man who had it all.The first Scottish presenter of Blue Peter, onetime boyfriend to rising star Catherine Zeta-Jones and later co-host of ITV’s flagship daytime show This Morning. His future, and place on British TV, seemed assured.

Former Sky Sports presenter Simon Thomas has revealed he chose to keep his engagement secret after being so open about his first wife’s death. The TV star recently tied the knot with girlfriend Derrina Jebb after two years of dating.

Simon Thomas had his favourite little man by his side as he married Derrina Jeb, as his son Ethan acted as best man. The former Sky Sports presenter tied the knot with girlfriend Derrina more than three years after the death of his first wife, Gemma, who died from leukaemia in 2017. In the latest photos from the nuptials, Simon’s son Ethan – who he shared with Gemma – looked smart in a waistcoat and tie at the wedding reception and read from a sheet of paper while delivering his best man speech. Adorably, Ethan, 11, stood on a chair as his dad held the microphone for him and supportively placed one hand on the youngster’s shoulder, smiling proudly. Behind them, a photo of Simon and Derrina was projected onto a screen.
