‘Did he get a perm?’: Jamie Oliver debuts a new curly hairstyle as his wife Jools shares a gushing Valentine’s post dedicated to the chef

Jamie Oliver showed off his new locks after his wife Jools shared an effusive Instagram post dedicated to him on Valentine’s Day.

The 47-year-old chef looked almost unrecognizable in the post while sporting the new hairstyle.

Thankfully, the mother-of-five, also 47, assured fans it was the celebrity chef she was kissing, dedicating the post to her “everything” and “favorite over 30 Valentines later.”

The couple, who have been together since they were 18, share five children, including Poppy Honey, 20, Daisy Boo, 19, Petal Blossom, 13, Buddy Bear, 11, and River Rocket, five.

Sharing the sweet photo with his 550,000 Instagram followers, Jools wrote: Happy [love] day to my everything and my favorite more than 30 Valentine’s Day after xxx’.

Where’s Jamie? He looks different,’ another fan said.

Commenting on her hair, one said: ‘Did Jamie get a perm? It’s not him, is it?

Jamie’s new hair comes after she revealed she couldn’t poach an egg until she read Delia Smith’s 1998 book How To Cook.

Speaking about the reveal, Oliver told The Daily Mail’s Alison Boshoff: “My Delia dish, I think probably her genius moment, was how to poach an egg.”

The celebrity chef recalled that the book’s ultra-simple cover, which featured eggs in a bowl, was the subject of some mockery upon its release.

“In fact, I remember some of the buyers saying, ‘Well, that’s never going to work; it’s a really boring cover.” It was the number one bestseller for yonks.

“I could cook many, many things when that book came out, but my nemesis was poaching an egg. It honestly was.

‘So thanks Delia, fixed that.’

Smith’s method is straightforward: He advises bringing the water to a simmer, cracking an egg into it, and simmering for two minutes; and then turn off and leave for ten minutes.
