How long have Jesse and Fearne been married? 

Jesse and Fearne have been married since 2014.

They tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in London that was attended by the likes of Denise van Outen, Holly WIlloughby, McBusted and Keith Lemon.

They began dating in 2011, the year Jesse officially split from his first wife Tilly Wood after eight years of marriage.

According to Fearne their first date consisted of a meal of vodka and cigarettes, and said they ‘did not eat a thing’.

However their lifestyles have changed and Jesse is now sober and the pair turned vegan together in 2021.

The Rockstar also confessed he cleaned up his act to match Fearne’s levels of domesticity.

In 2022, he admitted: ‘I’m getting better doing the dishes and housework. She’s one of the tidiest, cleanest people I’ve met. 

‘So the bar was very high and I have the chance to eat a lot of the food.’

In July, Fearne marked their 10 year wedding anniversary on Instagram by rewearing her wedding dress. 

How many children do they have?

Jesse and Fearne have two children together, and Jesse has two other children from his previous marriage, Lola and Arthur.

Lola and Arthur are 18 and 21 and are much older than his children with Fearne.

The couple welcomed their first child child Rex in 2013 and had a daughter, Honey, together a few years later in 2015.

In 2022, Fearne admitted she ‘felt very ill equipped’ becoming a stepmum to Jesse’s children.

Speaking on Kate Ferdinand’s Blended podcast, Fearne said: ‘I became a stepparent, or at least found myself in this family when I was 29.’

When asked what she thought makes someone a good step mum she said: ‘I would hate to ever come across as someone saying ‘I’ve totally smashed this one’ and tell you how to do it. I’m still working it out.’

‘But ultimately when all four children (Arthur, Lola, Rex and Honey) are together and getting on, those are the best times. Lean into all of it. You just need to lean into the good bits to charge yourself up,’ she added.

Jesse has previously hailed Fearne’s parenting skills and said she was ‘an amazing mother’, and while he admitted the two endured ‘ups and downs’ during the pandemic, he said it was amazing to spend time with Fearne and their children at his London home.
