After calling her partner’s name and getting no response, the ship’s staff left her to be “unhooked.”

She continued: “But he was already in the water, so I think it’s the most awkward situation I’ve ever been in and all these really polite men like to try to be very nice about it, but I could see him everywhere.” faces.

‘Like walking in and thinking “OMG this is just awful.” They had to unhook me. It was not very appropriate for a new wife!

“I don’t think Wayne realized what was going on until I told him, so he thought it was funny.”

During the interview, he also admitted that he “misses being in his girl group The Saturdays” and would like to show that he’s cool with his kids.

“Sometimes I would like to make a video… a music video. I would like to go on tour but I just remember making videos and they were really hard work and then when you got them back they would be amazing.

‘Now, I would very much like to do that. Now I’m like a mom and I want to be able to do something and say “Look, that was good.” Only for my children, yes. That’s sad, isn’t it?
