Vanessa Feltz asks her daughter Saskia to move back in with her following separation from Ben Ofoedu

Vanessa Feltz jokingly asked her daughter Saskia Joss to move back in with her after splitting from her fiancé of 16 years, Ben Ofoedu.

The presenter, 61, and her ex-partner, 50, separated after he confessed to having cheated on her during their relationship.

Vanessa’s daughter, Saskia, 34, who works as a child therapist, appeared on her mother’s TalkTV show Tuesday to discuss the phenomenon of growing numbers of adults moving back in with their parents.

Vanessa speculated that many parents wouldn’t be too happy for their adult children to move back home, but Saskia said many enjoy the arrangement since parents want to help their children, no matter how old they are.

Returning home to young adults often leads to an increase in oxytocin, a hormone that plays a role in social bonding, for both parents and their children, Saskia explained.

Separation: the presenter, 61, and her ex-partner, 50, separated after he confessed to having cheated on her during their relationship.

She said: ‘When I feel oxytocin for you, you feel oxytocin for me. I think it’s a great feeling of pride for parents instead of embarrassment or embarrassment, being able to help their children at any time in their life is something that all parents want to be able to do.’

Vanessa then suggested that Saskia, her husband, and their children could move back in with Vanessa, now that she lives on her own.

She said: ‘People may or may not know that you are my real daughter. When are you going to come home to your mother because I would like you and your husband Mark and your beautiful children AJ and Cecily to come straight home and live with me?

‘How can people know that I’m alone now, I don’t like it, I hate it. It’s not good for my oxytocin. Come back and it will be good for my sanity and yours.

Saskia laughed and replied, ‘If it means there’s great childcare and support and I don’t have to pay a mortgage, then I’ll be there! Sounds like a great idea.

‘The kids would love it, but I think you’d have to prepare for the 4am wake up’

Vanessa replied, “We’re kidding, we’re not serious, we know you’re settled and in your own home.”

Vanessa shares Saskia and her other daughter Allegra, 37, with her ex-husband Michael Kurer, whom she separated from in 2000.

Vanessa said, ‘When are you going to come home to your mother because I would like you and your husband Mark and your beautiful children AJ and Cecily to come straight home and live with me?’

Vanessa added: ‘How can people know I’m alone right now, I don’t like it, I hate it. It’s not good for my oxytocin. Come back and it will be good for my mental health and yours’ (pictured with Ben)

It comes after Vanessa candidly admitted life ‘isn’t easy’ after parting ways with Ben.

The star shared a video on Instagram on Monday where she revealed that she “can’t sleep in the middle of the night” but hopes it gets better.

While enjoying dinner at the Brasserie Of Light restaurant in London’s Selfridges, a friend asked her: ‘Vanessa, you look great, but how do you really feel?’

After showing an emotional expression, she replied, ‘Well, no one said it was going to be easy and I must say that it’s actually not easy, especially in the middle of the night when I can’t sleep and all.

“But I keep going and I have many, many friends and family around me and I love that.

“I guess every day I hope it gets a little easier, but thanks for asking.”

Vanessa announced that she split with her partner of 17 years two weeks ago amid claims he had been unfaithful while touring UK holiday parks with his electronic dance music act, which she later confirmed.

It comes after the woman Ben reportedly went missing with first told MailOnline how he sent a bombshell email to Vanessa, followed by an “awkward” phone call, denouncing the ” Serial Womanizer” by Ben.

Ben’s adventure told Vanessa had been ‘hopelessly in love’ with him after a series of torrid encounters in Ibiza and thailand.

But she insisted that the BBC Radio 2 presenter deserved to know that her partner had tried to seduce at least three other younger women.

The successful businesswoman, who looks a lot like Vanessa, said she initially had no idea Ben had a long-term partner when she began her affair with him, and broke off the relationship as soon as she found out.

But beach club owner and restaurateur Ella, 59, who did not wish to use her real name, described him as “an octopus who has no respect for women” and said she wanted to set the record straight after he ” spread lies” about his year. -Long adventure.

After the email, Ella and Vanessa had a ‘difficult’ phone conversation during which Vanessa told her that what she and Ofoedu had done was ‘very wrong’.

In the email, Ella wrote to Vanessa: “I was aware of his relationship with you and I felt very guilty, but he haunted me so much that I couldn’t resist his charm.”

“I was terrified sending that email,” Ella said, “and even more terrified when Vanessa called me back.” I completely understood her anger at me and I certainly didn’t snap back at her, but it was a very awkward conversation.

Despite the revelations about Ben’s behavior in the email and phone call, Vanessa apparently decided to forgive him.

However, earlier this month, Vanessa announced that she had finally called it quits after a series of other illicit relationships surfaced.

She, a mother of one, remained silent for six years but only decided to speak out after she said Ben insulted her in his mea culpa interview last week, in which he described their relationship as “purely sexual with no feelings involved” and -most dismissively, that sex with her was ‘almost a chore’.
