Myleene Klass opened up about almost leaving her ex-husband on the night before her wedding day in an emotional confession on Loose Women.
The former Hear’Say popstar, 46, appeared on Loose Women on Thursday to discuss topics of the day including the rumours that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are heading for divorce.
The presenter got candid about her own divorce and reflected on the breakdown of her relationship with her first husband and former bodyguard Graham Quinn.
The couple first got together in 2001 and were together for 12 years until Graham walked out on Myleene on her birthday in 2013, just half a year after their wedding day.
The singer revealed that she was told to leave him at the alter by her friends and said ‘the night before [she] got married’ she was crying in the bath, deciding what to do.
‘I was in the bath the night before I got married – which most of us know, didn’t end well, in fact [it went] so badly that the priest even offered to annul the wedding. It was that quick!’ she said.
‘I was in the bath and I was just sobbing because something didn’t feel right, I just knew it wasn’t right. And my girlfriend, now my girlfriend of 18 years, at the time she just said, “The car is outside.” Like Thelma and Louise, we could just go.’

‘At the time I didn’t feel I could go, I had two children, and I had this wedding, you know we had the cathedral and we had the priest and it was just everything was there.’
She then admitted she knew that he may have been unfaithful ahead of their wedding day.
‘I had a clue about the cheating and even his friend – it became a very crowded bathroom because his friend shimmied up onto the balcony because I wouldn’t open the door and he said “What are you doing?”’ she said.
The presenter ultimately did go through with the marriage for the sake of her two daughters Ava, 16, and Hero, 12, who she shares with her ex.

The pair were granted a quickie divorce in a hearing that allegedly lasted just 100 seconds.
Myleene has since spoken about how hard this time of her life was, admitting that she was drinking at 11am during the breakup struggling with her finances and holding it all together for her children.
Since her divorce, the star has been in a long-term relationship with Simon Motson with whom she shares a son named Apollo who was born in 2019.
Loose Women airs weekdays from 12:30pm on ITV1.
