Piers said: “So many interesting things I had to catch up on,” as he held up a front page.

“Here we go, here we go,” Susanna replied.

Piers joked that the Crystal Palace chairman sounded a little like him.

He said: “It said that you found love with somebody who is 53 years old, I am 53, born in 1965, I was born in 1965, been married before and with kids, another box ticked.”

Susanna asked Piers: “Did you think I’d fallen in love with you?”

“Well, handsome, wealthy, successful, big passion for London football club… I was reading all this and thinking, ‘Good God she’s come out!'” Piers joked.

“Finally I’ve seen the light,” his co-host quipped.

Piers said that Susanna had tried to “bribe” him with a bottle of champagne so he would be “kind” to her over her new romance.

Susanna said: “It wasn’t a bribe. It was to welcome you back.”

Charlotte Hakwins said: “We’re very pleased for you Susanna!” as Piers added: “Honestly couldn’t be happier for you.”

But Susanna asked Piers: “Are you jealous?”

Piers joked: “There’s now three of us in this marriage!”

He added: “He is good looking, very rich, very successful – the only thing about being usurped by a fine specimen like that is that Crystal Palace are terrible.

“Even you’ve scored more than them!

Susanna and Steve were snapped at Stamford Bridge to watch Crystal Palace play Chelsea at the weekend.

Earlier this month, Susanna admitted she was ready to find romance again following her split from ex Dominic Cotton, with whom she shares sons Jack, Sam and Finn with.

They split in 2014 and Susanna hasn’t had a relationship since – choosing to focus on her career and on raising her three boys.

But she’s ready to get back in the game now that her children are teenagers, telling You Magazine: “This is the right time of my life to explore that now.

“I’ve spent a significant amount of time since the split focused on the children and on work.”

She said that since her kids had become more independent, she felt comfortable exploring her own social life outside of them.

Susanna added: “My children are all teenagers now – they’re much more independent. They do things after school, they’ve got loads of friends, so I think they encouraged me to think about developing that side of my life a little bit more.”
