Anthea Turner, 62, postpones wedding to fiancé Mark Armstrong for a THIRD time

Anthea Turner has revealed that she has postponed her wedding to businessman Mark Armstrong for the third time.

The twice-married TV star, 62, previously postponed the wedding due to covid restrictions, the deaths of both parties’ beloved mothers and an eye injury that left them with ‘moments of going blind’

She told the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden that the lavish nuptials would now take place in Italy, saying: “We’re definitely going to do it next year!”

In 2020, Anthea and Mark spoke to each other HELLO! about their engagement, which took place a year earlier.

Anthea described her Italian partner, 57, as “the love of her life” and said: “We adore each other, he makes me smile every day and we are excited about our life together.”

Mark proposed to his fiancé at lightning speed just two months after their first date.

The TV veteran was previously married to ex-husband Grant Bovey for 13 years, but the couple split after he cheated on her with a woman half her age in 2013.

Anthea’s first marriage was to her manager, former DJ Peter Powell, in 1990, and the couple separated eight years later.

In October, Anthea revealed she wrote a letter to her then-husband Grant, begging him to understand how menopause was responsible for her behavior — unaware that he was already cheating on her with a 24-year-old.

She said her work commitments made it difficult to have a good conversation with her ex, so she tried to put down on paper the changes she was going through.

The couple were married for 12 years before separating when she was 52 after learning of his affair.

Former GMTV host Anthea first said she herself didn’t understand what was happening to her, welcoming the recent more open debate about menopause.

She said on the Middle-aged postcards podcast: “I had no idea what was going on. We need to talk about it – it’s a terrible time.

You suddenly don’t feel yourself anymore. And I know it sounds so pathetic to say, “Oh, I don’t feel myself,” but you really don’t. You feel like someone has entered your body.

“All of your marks are a few degrees apart. I got spots on my back and I was sweating. I felt my confidence was gone. I got brain fog, I doubted myself.

You want to turn to the person most important in your life, your husband, and I couldn’t. I would go back and forth to Toronto at that time because I was doing a program there.

“But of course what I didn’t realize was that he was going through his own little menopause at the time, and he obviously had a, very exciting in his life, 24-year-old.

So a sweaty, moaning woman was the last thing he wanted. And I wrote this note saying, you know, please understand that.

“I then started reading about it and learned a lot more, and I tried to explain it. I thought, I’ll write it all down and I wrote it all down.’
