They’re one of showbiz’s strongest couples and now Jamie and Jools Oliver are celebrating 20 years together by renewing their vows.
The pair, who have five children, confirmed it was a “nice excuse to get people together” and it would be completely different to their original wedding in 2000.

Speaking in the Daily Mail‘s Event magazine, the 43-year-old chef confirmed the happy news.
Jamie said: “Jools wants to get married again.
“We’ll do it completely differently. It sounds a bit cheesy, but 20 is an amazing milestone. It’s nice to have an excuse to get people together.”

It would be a nice end to a difficult 18 months for the Naked Chef.
Last September, Jamie’s chain of Italian restaurants were almost forced to shut, after facing bankruptcy.

The TV star had to invest £13 million from his savings and told Event: “I haven’t got any more [money]. I tried to do the right thing, I’ve never been paid by the restaurant group, I’ve always reinvested.”
Earlier this year he told the Financial Times: “I had two hours to put money in and save it or the whole thing would go to [bleep] that day or the next day. It was as bad as that and as dramatic as that.”

The company has said it will be profitable again in a few years.
