This Morning: Vanessa Feltz quips about her love life
Earlier this year, Vanessa Feltz announced her separation from Phats and Small singer Ben Ofoedu after 16 years together. The TalkTV presenter called time on their union after discovering he had cheated on her with “multiple women”.
Despite admitting to being unfaithful, Ben, 51, feels he has been treated unfairly while people supported Vanessa because it was “the popular vote”.
He feels people have been “incredibly cruel without knowing the facts” and that some of his celebrity friends have “behaved in a funny way”.
Vanessa, 61, will now take part in the new series of Channel 4’s Celebs Go Dating, and Ben says he’s “not sure if he would have” done the same.
The singer told the Evening Standard: “I think in the future a lot will come out…I will tell the story.

“I think that I’ve maintained a dignified silence and I think that Vanessa has peddled this and that’s the worst thing I’ve ever said about her, that she has peddled it a bit too much when she knows deep down inside what the real truth of everything else is.
“Look for the truth that will come out very, very soon in the next few months.”
Express.co.uk has contacted Vanessa’s representative for comment.
Following their split, Ben admitted to sleeping with another woman three times because he was “insecure”.

He told the Mirror that the woman told Vanessa about their dalliance in 2015 and she kicked him out. The pair eventually worked through their issues and Vanessa forgave him.
However, Ben was caught sexting another woman last year, which was the final straw for the This Morning agony aunt.
Speaking to Express.co.uk in April, Vanessa vowed not to “waste time engulfed in sadness” after the “horrible romantic implosion”.
She said: “I don’t find it easy at all but what I am really doing is walking the walk. I’m finding the experience, the joy, the fun and thinking about other things.
“I won’t just sit there listening to sad music eating loads of cake and ice cream, even if that is what I really feel like doing.”
The mother-of-two also said she has not given up hope that she will get her “happily ever after” and still wants “to find Mr Right”.
Detailing the qualities that she is looking for in her dream man, Vanessa explained: “Someone kind, honest and truthful, that’s all I’m looking for, and with a healthy intellectual curiosity about the world.”
