GB News: Jim Davidson slams 'woke culture'

British comedian Jim Davidson has been no stranger to the complexities of love.

At the age of 70, Davidson is considering tying the knot for the sixth time, which he has joked puts him on par with King Henry VIII.

His current romance with Natasha has led to speculation from his friends that wedding bells will be ringing again soon.

The comedian himself has hinted at the possibility, calling his girlfriend "the one" and openly declaring his excitement about their future together at Nigel Farage's 60th birthday celebration.

While it may be sixth time lucky for the former Big Break host, here is a look back at the past four decades of Davidson's romantic history - and what led to those relationships disintegrating.

Davidson's first wife, Sue Walpole, was his childhood sweetheart and the mother of his daughter Sarah.

He married her at the very young age of 17, and sadly their young love was short lived, as their relationship ended just a year after they welcomed their daughter into the world.

Davidson later wed Julie Gullick in 1981, and they had a son together called Cameron.

However, their marriage dissolved in 1986, and Davidson later shared some startling revelations that may explain part of what went wrong between them.

While on Piers Morgan's biographical talk show in 2018, he admitted to funding a stag party that led to scandalous headlines when he was with Gullick.

He told the presenter: "[The groom] ordered all these girls and it was my money he was spending.

"He thought it was a hoot and they all turned up at this boutique hotel in Kensington. I got a call from the hotel saying, 'here are nine women downstairs waiting for you'.

"They were in fishnets and whips. It was a great deal of fun and it did take 12 and a half hours. Three more turned up when we were asleep."

In 1987 Davidson married television presenter Alison Holloway, but allegations of domestic violence ended their union within two years.

Holloway later spoke out about the abusive nature of their marriage, telling Sunday People: "he bloodied and bruised my body… He is a wife beater and abuser of women and people ought to know that."

Davidson addressed some of these incidents in his autobiography in an attempt to provide his side of the story, but failed to escape criticism for his actions.

In his book The Full Monty, he wrote: "We're like a couple of boxers. On the first occasion, I poked her in the eye by accident. I actually went for the mouth [...] The second time I gave her a shiner.

"I threw a bunch of keys which whacked her in the eye. Just for a giggle she kept blackening it up to make it look worse."

By the early 1990s, Davidson’s life took a new direction with his fourth wife - former model Tracy Hilton.

This was a much longer relationship than the ones that came before Hilton and the pair had three children together.

Sadly, the marriage ultimately ended in 2000 after Davidson admitted to being unfaithful with a glamour model he met while filming The Generation Game.

The toll of Davidson's costly divorces reportedly left him financially strained, and he later filed for bankruptcy in 2006.

In 2009, Davidson married Michelle Cotton, who he spent 14 years with before their recent separation.

Davidson has expressed his fondness for her and was said to be 'devastated' by their divorce.

Despite the split, the pair have remained friends and still spend time together.

The comedian recently sold the cottage they once shared, signalling his readiness for a fresh start as he embraces his relationship with Natasha.

The age gap between Davidson and Natasha has drawn some attention, but the couple seem unfazed by the 23 years separating them.

Davidson has described himself as "smitten", and has even started to contemplate marriage again.

At Nigel Farage's recent birthday party, the comedian reportedly kept asking friends to "tell her she should marry me" and said he can't wait to walk down the aisle with her.

Since then the pair announced their engagement which was made public in April, just a few months after they got together.
