Giovanna Fletcher, who celebrates her 40th birthday today, has candidly discussed the challenges in her marriage with husband Tom Fletcher. Appearing on Caroline Hirons' podcast Glad We Had This Chat, she offered a new perspective on her relationship with the McFly singer.
A listener had written in confessing that their 'demanding jobs' were causing a strain in their relationship. Giovanna empathised, saying: "That's really hard isn't it. I can relate, I feel with Tom if we can manage to watch something together and our feet touch, that's a win.".
She continued: "I also think being aware that you're so busy that you're juggling, that you're drifting is really really important, because then you can do something about it. I think not being aware of it is the difficult place to be.". Giovanna passionately emphasised the importance of not comparing one's relationship to others.
She said: "I think it's so easy to look at other couples out there, whether that's your mates, or online and go 'oh my gosh they've got it sorted'. It's all b******s, total total rubbish.". Giovanna and Tom first crossed paths as children at the Sylvia Young Theatre School when she was just 13 years old. They exchanged vows in 2012 and have since welcomed three children; Buzz, Buddy and Max.
In recent years, Giovanna has made a name for herself in the podcasting world, hosting conversations about motherhood on her Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast. She's had a host of famous guests, with perhaps the most notable being Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, who joined her for a chat five years ago.
