Ant McPartlin and his wife Anne-Marie looked relaxed and happy as they arrived at Heathrow ready for a New Year of white sandy beaches and endless sunshine.
The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! presenter, 48, and his wife, 45, are swapping the strong winds of the UK for the blistering heat of Dubai, UAE. The duo spent quite sometime apart after Ant and his TV partner Declan Donnelly spent weeks in Australia filming for I’m A Celeb.
While Ant filmed for the series, which ended earlier this month, his wife Anne-Marie supported him from home in the UK. And in new pictures obtained by Mail Online, the pair were seen smiling for the cameras as they dragged their luggage into the terminal. Anne-Marie looked cosy in a loose floor-length black dress and a cream cardigan.
Anne-Marie completed her look with a huge Loewe tote bag, which retails for £1,400. Her hubby sported a similar cardigan in dark grey as well as a black shirt and loose black trousers.

Ant and Anne-Marie married at St Michael’s Church in Hampshire in August 2021, with him becoming a stepdad to her two girls. The TV star credited his new spouse with being “the fundamental reason for the great change in my life” following his drink-driving charge in 2018.
He told The Sun: “She’s been my rock. She’s a beautiful soul. We’re very happy. I’m in the best place I’ve been in my life, to be honest with you. It’s great.” Anne-Marie had split from the husband of her two children in 2020, months before Ant’s divorce from Lisa Armstrong was finalised.

She was first seen at Ant’s house in March of that year – taking out the bins – and when Ant was arrested for drunk driving the same month, she accompanied him to the police station. Sources claimed the mum-of-two had been by the presenter’s side through his “lowest depths” and her unwavering support helped him on the road to recovery when he was convicted of drink-driving.

However, when the couple’s relationship was confirmed in June, Ant’s ex Lisa wasn’t happy as she tweeted: “To think she was MY friend!”
Later speaking to The Sun, Ant insisted that he and Anne-Marie hadn’t been looking for love when they grew closer. The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star said: “We were going through turmoil. It was the last thing on either of our minds to get into a relationship. But there we were like ‘This felt so good, why deny it”.’
