Carol Vorderman reveals how her five romances with ‘special friends’ work saying ‘I’m not a jealous person’

CAROL Vorderman has revealed how she’s able to juggle her five ‘special friends’ without worrying about a broken heart.

The 62-year-old’s unconventional approach to romance has raised a few eyebrows in recent years, but it’s working out perfectly for Carol.

The Countdown legend, who has been married twice before, explained that none of the men in her life are exclusive and, as a result, are free to move on when they like.

She told You magazine: “Oh yeah, yeah, my ‘special friends’. I’m continuing with that system and it’s working very well.

“I’m not a jealous person and I’m happy when my friends are happy, whether they are ‘special friends’ or not.

“The goal of my life is to be happy, not to be in love. I just find people interesting and life interesting.”

Carol said her current situation probably wouldn’t have been feasible earlier in her life when she was still building her career and had to be at the beck and call of employers.

Late last year Carol hit back at those who insist she should settle down.

She told Fabulous: “In the past, you’d be called horrible words as a woman.

“A man is a ‘player’, but there is no female equivalent word.

“So I’ve made one up. I call it ‘Boada’, which is like [ancient warrior queen] Boadicea.”

For the past decade, Carol has been having “no-strings-attached” relationships with multiple men and believes many of her peers are doing similar but simply feel too much shame to admit it.

“I am a great proponent that if women choose to not get married or they want to be with someone for a limited period of time, they can now,” she explains.

“It’s your choice if you have a boyfriend or you don’t.

“I might have a boyfriend who only lasts a few months. I call them ‘special friends’. People may have other terms for them [laughs]!

“But I’m happy living my life that way. The people involved are also very happy about it. That’s between us, it’s nothing at all to do with anybody else.

“The first rule is: do no harm, so for me that means only single people, obviously.”

She’s clear, too, that choosing to live this life should hold no shame. “I have a very full, happy, exciting and adventurous life. And it makes me laugh every day. It’s ridiculous and it’s fantastic.

“I think many people are living that life but are too frightened to say. There are a lot of fresh divorcees coming into their 50s and the majority wouldn’t want to get married again.

“They’d say: ‘Maybe I’d like someone, maybe a few people. I didn’t know I wanted to do this, but I want to explore this now.’”
