Tarrant takes new flame on holiday
1 September 2007
Who Wants to be a Millionaire? host Chris Tarrant has been seen holidaying with a fresh partner.
It seems he has wasted no time making the most of his new-found freedom following the breakdown of his marriage to Ingrid Tarrant, which took place following her discovery of his affair.
The TV quizster took new flame Jane Bird on a break to Italy. Ms Bird, said to be in her 40s, has been seeing Tarrant, 60, for two months.
A friend told the Mirror: "Chris has an eye for attractive women and Jane is no exception.
"They relish each other's company and frequently on their trip they were oblivious to anyone else's presence.
"They have been dating for a while; otherwise they wouldn't be very publicly going on holiday together."
A source told the Sun that Bird has been helping Chris get through his divorce; the latest in a line of celebrity break-ups in which a final decision has been complicated by disagreements over settlements.
