Jamie Oliver ’embarrassed’ by idea of renewing wedding vows
OHMYGOSSIP — Jamie Oliver was “embarrassed” by the idea of renewing his wedding vows.
The 49-year-old ‘Naked Chef’ star and his wife Jools – who have kids Poppy, 21, Daisy, 20, Petal, 14, Buddy, 12, and River, seven, together – got married in 2000 and decided to renew their vows on a family holiday to the Maldives, but Jeremy had his reservations.
Appearing on the ‘Newlyweds’ podcast, he said: “We were going to renew our vows at 20 years and then covid happened.
“So, it was at 23 years. The girls were leaving for university and stuff, so it did feel like the nest was starting to break up’.
“We’d never been on what you would call a posh holiday, so we went to the Maldives.
“I was a bit embarrassed about the whole thing, if I’m really honest, and I wasn’t so into it until we got there.”
However, Jamie ended up loving the whole experience “more than anyone”, and he insisted it was much less “awkward” than his actual wedding day.
He recalled: “The first time you get married, it’s like, it just feels a bit awkward and embarrassing.
“But if you ever get married again, if you get to 10 years or 20 years, the words are different. Because you’ve earned every single line and it was really, really emotional.
“The words are still the same words, but they mean different things.
“Basically, like s*** we’ve done it like, wow. And then you look around, there’s all these amazing kids that you’ve made. Yeah, it was incredible.”
Last year, Jamie shared photos from the wedding renewal and admitted it was “really special, funny and romantic”.
He wrote on Instagram: “After 23 years together, we thought it would be a special moment to celebrate renewing our wedding vows before the kids all start leaving the nest.
“It was really special, funny and romantic with the words in the ceremony making more sense having come this far together.”
He added: “We’ve always dreamed of going to the Maldives and it was just as you would have dreamed, simply amazing !”
