Anne Robinson, the renowned TV presenter, has recently confirmed that she is in a relationship with the ex-husband of Queen Camilla, Andrew Parker Bowles. When asked about their relationship, Robinson responded with a simple "yes" but quickly added, "mind your own business." Rumors had been circulating about their romance since the end of last year, and Robinson has now confirmed that they are indeed dating.
In an interview with Saga magazine, Robinson also revealed that she will be taking on the role of the publication's new agony aunt, starting from the June issue. When discussing her return to the dating scene in her seventies after being single for over a decade, Robinson stated that she believes in taking risks and surprising oneself. She also shared that not drinking has made her less reckless, saying, "If you don't drink, you're not as reckless, are you?"
Robinson and Parker Bowles have been officially together for some time now, but they had initially kept their relationship under wraps. Robinson, famously known as the "Queen of Mean" for her sharp comments and catchphrase "you are the weakest link, goodbye," was first seen on the quiz show Weakest Link in 2000. In the interview, Robinson also discussed why dating in older age can be easier, saying that one becomes more selective and nothing matters as much.
According to a source, Robinson and Parker Bowles had been secretly seeing each other for eight months before their relationship was made public. The couple had been trying to keep their romance out of the spotlight for as long as possible. The source also added that their relationship was an "extraordinary match" due to their different backgrounds, and that Robinson is known for being "quite bossy."
The couple's friends had known about their relationship, but it was kept hidden from the public until now. The source also revealed that Robinson likes to joke about being "new money," despite her seemingly luxurious upbringing and attending boarding school. She often invites Parker Bowles to her dinner parties, which have been attended by prominent figures such as David Cameron.
Robinson, who was also the sixth presenter of Channel 4's quiz show Countdown, stepped down from her role in 2022 after recording 265 episodes. She was previously married to Charles Wilson, a former journalist and newspaper executive, and later to John Penrose, whom she divorced in 2007.
Parker Bowles was previously married to Queen Camilla in 1973, and they have two children together. They divorced in 1995, and Parker Bowles later married Rosemary Pitman, who passed away in 2010. Queen Camilla then married King Charles in 2005. The Queen and Parker Bowles have remained friends, and he was among the select guests at the King's coronation.
It is rumored that author Jilly Cooper's fictional character Rupert Campbell-Black in her books Rivals and Riders is inspired by a combination of Parker Bowles and other aristocrats. The full interview with Robinson can be found in the June issue of Saga magazine.
