Ricky and Jane have been dating since they first met at University College London in the 1980s. However, they’ve never married, with Ricky previously sharing his thoughts on their relationship.
Speaking to The Times in 2010, he said: ‘Don’t see the point ‘We are married for all intents and purposes.
‘Everything’s shared and actually our fake marriage has lasted longer than a real one.
