Patrick Kielty shared taxi driver's cheeky question after make-or-break Cat Deeley flight
Patrick Kielty once revealed that a taxi driver warned him that his efforts to woo Cat Deeley may prove fruitless after he flew half way across the world to impress her A taxi driver once cheekily suggested to Patrick Kielty that his relationship with Cat Deeley may not go to plan after a make or break flight. The celebrity couple announced last week they had split after marrying back in 2012 in Rome. And during an appearance on Loose Women three years after their special day, The Late Late Show presenter spoke about how a taxi driver once cast doubts about their romance. Ruth Langsford told the Northern Irish comedian, 54, that his love story with Cat, 48, was 'lovely' because they were friends for a long time beforehand. And asked how that changed into a romantic relationship, he said: 'There was a moment, we always used to keep in contact, it was her birthday, and she was in Beverly Hills and I was in Dundrum (County Down). 'And obviously LA are eight hours behind, it was around tea time with her. I texted her happy birthday from a little Irish pub. It was around two-o-clock in the morning, approaching closing time. 'And she said, 'It is just a shame you are not in LA because I'm having a lunch tomorrow' – so I said I will be there. 'So I got up at five, jumped on a six-o-clock flight from Ireland, got into Heathrow at seven, and jumped on a 20 to 10 flight, got in at quarter past one, walked into the Beverly Hills Hotel. I said 'hi', she fell off the chair, and we have been together ever since.' However, moments after shocking Cat with his romantic gesture, a taxi driver joked about keeping the engine running, in case his plan was not well received. He recalled: 'But there was a brilliant moment where the taxi driver pulled up, the taxi driver from the airport, and I was telling him the story of why I was coming and he pulled up outside the hotel, and he said, 'Sir, would you like me to wait for you?'' Cat, who has been presenting This Morning with Ben Shephard, later lived in LA with Patrick until the pair, along with their sons, eight and six, moved to the UK in 2020. And while Cat has been in London with her presenting duties, Patrick has spent the last two years often being in Dublin for his weekly RTE show. In a joint statement to the PA news agency last week, Cat and Patrick said: 'We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. 'We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. 'There will be no further comment.'

'And we had a few people turn up and go, 'We didn't know you were in a band. We know you from Love Is Blind, so we thought we'd come and see your band'. 'I was like, 'Cool, welcome'. I love it.' Matt and Emma are back to present a second series of the show that follows singles who try to find their perfect partner, sight unseen, to get engaged and marry on the show. It is Emma's first big project on screen since undergoing keyhole surgery earlier this year to repair a hole in her heart. Love Is Blind UK was filmed last year and now she is well enough to be out promoting the run. She said: 'It's really nice to be back. It was nice to have a little time off to recover and focus on what I needed to do. But now it's full steam ahead and back to work, which is nice.' Two couples from series one are still happily married, so are Matt and Emma worried about delivering on series two, which drops on Netflix from August 13? Emma said: 'We filmed it straight after the reunion for series one so the characters from season one were so fresh. I was like, 'How are we ever going to match that?' ' Matt added: 'Watching it happen, being part of the show, you're just rooting for them.' Love is Blind UK podcast gets a new host Despite the trend for shows to have celebrity spin-offs, Emma doesn't think that could ever work here. She said: 'You'd constantly be trying to guess who it was, wouldn't you? 'There'd be certain people that you'd absolutely know who it was. Imagine if Rylan was in there, or Alan Carr. 'You'd be like, 'That's f***ing Rylan!' '
