The TV presenter, 73, already had twins Tom and Jack, then six, when she met her partner, 65, while they were both working for Granada Television – an ITV franchisee.
Unhappy in her marriage with journalist David Henshaw, the Good Morning Britain anchor had already spotted her on TV and had developed a crush.
She told Kate Thornton’s White Wine Question Time podcast: ‘There was absolutely no doubt in my mind that my boys, who were six, twins, they are – two six year old boys were my absolute priority and they had to be.
‘And as Richard and I got closer, and it was clear that we… you kind of talked about marriage after about three weeks, didn’t you, I remember. ‘It was clear things were very, very serious.’

Judy even confessed she thought Richard’s suit at the time was ‘a bit flash’, however since he otherwise ‘looked nice’, she decided to let their relationship develop.
She revealed their colleagues were convinced the pair were only involved in ‘a fling’ and were left astonished when they each got a divorce from their other halves.

Colleagues at Granada Television thought the relationship was a fling; and were surprised when things got serious, and they divorced their respective partners.
Richard was married to Lynda Hooley for five years before they divorced in 1983 after he met Judy, while she was with husband David until 1986.
The famous couple hosted This Morning from its inception in 1998 to 2001 before taking on their show – Richard and Judy – in 2001 for eight years.
They share Jack, 35, who is a talent manager, and personal trainer Chloe, 34, who is notably married to professional rugby player James Haskell, 37.

The 2022 published Style Guide for the event, the eleventh of its kind, requests formality remains in the Royal Enclosure – where punters have been able to buy their way in since 2007 – but hints at a less strict approach elsewhere, suggesting exuberant occasion wear is positively encouraged this year.
Plenty of fans adopted a patriotic theme too, to ensure the Platinum Jubilee celebrations continue, with red, white and blue incorporated into their outfits for the day.
Those with the widest brimmed hats are likely to be best suited for temperatures that look set to soar to over 25 degrees in this leafy portion of Berkshire.
Races running at Ascot on Wednesday include the Queen Mary Stakes (2.30pm), the Queen’s Vase (3:05pm) and the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes (3.40pm).
