Fern Britton's estranged husband details 'chance of a lifetime' hours after her interview

Back in January, Fern and Phil, 58, announced their separation in a joint statement posted on both of their Twitter accounts.

The statement read: “After more than 20 happy years together, Phil and I have decided to go our separate ways.

“We will always share a great friendship and our lovely children.”

The former couple are parents to Winnie, 18, and Fern also has children from her first marriage to Clive Jones – twins Jack and Harry, 26, and Grace, 23.
