He told The Daily Mirror newspaper: “It’s a little bit scary. I’m apprehensive because I don’t know what to expect and I don’t know what the outcome is going to be.

It’s about the big picture – it’s about my hubby, Coop. “It’s about our relationship, the way forward. I had to talk about all of that.”
