Vick Hope split from famous ex after ‘quarter-life crisis’ before husband
Back in 2013, Vick was in a long-term relationship with Friday Night Dinners actor Tom Rosenthal, for four and a half years.
However, in 2017, Vick ended the relationship with the comedian due to a “quarter-life crisis”.
Explaining on the When Life Gives You Melons podcast, Vick shared: “I’ve just broken up with my boyfriend of four-and-a-half years because I was thinking, is this right? Is this who I’m going to be with for the rest of my life?
“If I’m not 100% sure about that, then maybe I should get out,” she added.
Vick continued: “I feel like there are so many expectations – society blows them on you and they have changed so much from how they used to be. We’re muddling our way through it and no one knows what’s right or wrong.”
Vick Hope and X Factor winner Myles Stephenson
In 2017, it was reported that Vick was dating X Factor winner Myles Stephenson – who was a member of the band Rak-Su.
Myles let slip about their relationship in December 2017 when he tweeted that they had been dating for three months. However, the following year, Vick appeared to confirm they had ended things, due to her work schedule.
She told The Sun: “It’s hard to make anything work with people when you’re having to get up at 4.30am when you’re doing breakfast radio.”

According to The Sun, Calvin flew in Nile Rodgers and his band Chic from the US to perform for guests. And there were several famous faces in the crowds too, including Vernon Kay and Jordan North, along with AJ Odudu.
