Patsy Kensit has opened up about her past marriages, admitting only two out of the four really ‘count’ to her.
The actress, 54, first got married at the age of 22 in 1988 to Big Audio Dynamite star Dan Donovan, divorcing in 1991.
Her second marriage was to Simple Minds’ Jim Kerr whom she shares her son James with between 1992 and 1996, going on to marry Oasis’s Liam Gallagher, the father of her second son Lennon, from 1997 until 2000 and DJ Jeremy Healy from 2009 until 2010.
Patsy has revealed that she only counts the fathers of her children as her ‘significant’ marriages, after tying the knot with everyone she dated.
She told Postcards From Midlife podcast: ‘Well, I married all my boyfriends, so … that was something that I’ve learned I needn’t do.’
Patsy added: ‘I can’t change the rules of the law… [but] I was with Jim, and Lennon’s dad for years, so I kind of count them as my two marriages.

‘I know that’s not allowed, I know there was a ceremony. But I feel that those were the really significant relationships and very, very deep and wonderful in so many ways.’
Patsy’s eldest son James is now 27, while Lennon is 21, and both of them have left home.
The Lethal Weapon 2 star admitted that she is struggling with empty nest syndrome since her sons have moved out.

She told OK! magazine: ‘It’s so painful I can’t tell you. Everyone’s emotional at the moment, aren’t they? Every day it’s been really hard.
‘I don’t let the boys know that but I know they feel it because they’re constantly checking in. They have their own lives but I’m not going to lie, there’s an ache in my heart.’
