Of the loved-up pair’s marriage he said: ‘That was absolutely the right time. It was weird because, for years, I’d not known if I’d wanted kids or a family…
‘That seemed like something that other people did, I couldn’t perceive of that as a future.
‘And then Konnie came along and quite early on she said “I want kids and a family” and this sort of thing, and I heard myself going “OK”, and sort of thought, “oh, right, why have I said that?”
‘It was the best decision I ever made.’
