Speaking on Mia Freedman’s No Filter Podcast in June, the Chains singer said: ‘My first experience [with marriage] was disgraceful.’

The brunette beauty wrote in her autobiography, Now I Can Dance, that she felt ‘disconnected’ to Carr on their wedding day.
She also said that the pair had a disagreement when she refused to sell photos of the ceremony to a women’s magazine.
