When did Jenny Seagrove meet Bill Kenwright and did they have any children?
Jenny Seagrove first began a relationship with producer Bill Kenwright in 1994.
The pair had once appeared together as contestants on a charity edition of ITV1’s Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, winning £1,000.
They also appeared together on a celebrity edition of the BBC’s Pointless in 2014.
Prior to meeting Jenny, Kenwright was briefly married to actress Anouska Hempel, whom he had one child with – a daughter named Lucy.
Jenny was also previously married to fellow actor Madhav Sharma.
Throughout their long-term romance, Jenny and Bill did not welcome any children, nor did the pair re-marry.
Jenny previously told Express: ”I think once one marriage goes wrong it is enough for some people.
”I’m one of those and so is Bill. As for children, I have never been particularly maternal. I was still in my 30s when we met and did discuss it at one point.
“But I do prefer my lifestyle as it is and the freedom that it gives.
”I regard myself as fortunate to have lived for so long with such a fantastic character with a good heart who sees the best in everyone and is so positive about life.
”It’s such a contrast because, despite the successes I have enjoyed, I remain a shy person. I like to think we have been good for each other and have enjoyed happiness together.”
