First Dates' Fred Sirieix's defiant 5-word response to 'complaint' about wife Fruitcake
First Dates' Fred Sirieix's defiant 5-word response to 'complaint' about wife Fruitcake Speaking about his life in a recent interview, a "warm and honest" Fred Sirieix gave a defiant response when it came to a specific "complaint" about his wife, Fruitcake Fred Sirieix has been in a relationship with Fruitcake since 2018 (Image:for Moss Bros ) Fred Sirieix has given a defiant five-word comment in response to a "complaint" about his wife, saying "nobody needs to know". In a candid chat, the maître d' from First Dates divulged personal details to journalist Michael Odell, touching on his family, past relationships, and his current spouse. After separating from his previous partner, Alex Spendolini (mother to his children), in 2016, Fred found love again with the woman he affectionately calls "Fruitcake." The couple exchanged vows in the idyllic setting of Negril, Jamaica, in February. Since 2018, Fred has been romantically involved with Fruitcake (whose actual name remains private), culminating in a grand wedding celebration at Pattoo Castle. His children played roles in the festivities; Lucien served as best man while Olympic diver Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix performed a reading. When quizzed in the recent interview about the impact of marriage on his life, Fred extolled its virtues. Fruitcake's real name hasn't been publicly revealed (Image: Getty Images ) Speaking to the Times , he expressed: "It's brilliant. We've been together almost nine years but it's about trust and commitment. It has elevated the relationship. You put a ring on the finger and it says: this is serious; I'm not going anywhere. We are on this journey together for life." Article continues below Despite Michael commending Fred's open and sincere manner during their conversation, he did voice one "complaint", questioning the continued use of the moniker Fruitcake for his wife. Despite Michael finding it "confusing", Fred stood firm, stating: "No. She has a job. Nobody needs to know who she is. It interferes with her life." Fred, who graced the jungle in I'm A Celebrity after his success on Channel 4's First Dates, often shares endearing snippets from their holidays and dates, as reported by the Standard. True to form, on his and Fruitcake's special day, Fred posted an Instagram photo of the elated pair with the caption "18.02.2025". In the photo, Fred is pictured sporting a white tuxedo jacket. Meanwhile, Fruitcake dazzles in a white dress and veil. In the comments, she says: "Best day of my life!!!!!" Fred was resolute in his response to the "complaint" (Image: Getty Images for BAFTA ) Speaking previously to OK!, Fred admitted that he's a "hopeless romantic" at heart, adding that "you reap what you sow" when it comes to relationships. The 'My Million Pound Menu' star explained that with more effort made, the "better it becomes", describing how it's all about "nurturing love". Fred also shared one of his most memorable romantic acts, acknowledging he's made many over the years, but one particular gesture involved "whisking Fruitcake off." He reminisced: "I'm a big fan of romantic gestures; I've made plenty over the years. Perhaps one of my best or favourite ones was whisking Fruitcake off to Monte Carlo to show her the places where I worked as a young professional. It was magical to relive those moments together as a team!" Article continues below You can next catch Fred on First Dates on Channel 4 tonight (Friday, July 4), from 10pm to 11.05pm.
