“I will be the first to tell you he is not the easiest to live with. Not doing the dishes after dinner is a daily struggle, so I feel for you, Caitlyn,” she said.

Is it bullying? No, not at all. He’s a grown-up man. They’re all fine.

Andrew and Suraya – who married in 2016 – have three children together.

The comic rarely shares pictures of his wife on social media, preferring instead to keep his private life private.

Suraya will now join Dan Osborne, Derek Draper and Ian Wright’s wife Nancy at the plush Palazzo Versace hotel ahead of the show’s first elimination.
