As a comedian, Ade’s touring of the comedy circuits played a part in how he met his future wife.

In an interview with the Guardian in 2017, Ade spoke about the hilarious way he met Jennifer.

He said: “I met my wife, Jennifer Saunders, in a strip club when I was 23.

“It was a comic strip club, so you could perform alternative comedy on one stage while there were strippers on the other.

Swaying from her traditional comedic roles, Jennifer is starring in the upcoming Harlan Coben drama, The Stranger.

The Netflix show, which also stars Richard Armitage and Shaun Dooley, will be released on January 30, 2020.
