Speaking to Weekend magazine in 2020, Gino said: “When I met my wife I realised she was an extremely generous, clever woman.

“My friends’ girlfriends stopped them doing things, but from day one Jessica gave me a lot of freedom.”

Meanwhile, in 2014, Gino also told the Mirror: “Jessica and I don’t really spend any time together

“I think that’s one of the reasons we’ve lasted for 20 years. It’s a good thing, I don’t really want to know everything my wife does, because otherwise she will be boring to me.”

He joked: “I went to pick up a piece of meat and she picked up a piece of butter – it was a recipe at first sight. Let’s put it this way, in the last five years she’s changed her car three times… I still haven’t changed mine once.”
