EVER since Joel Dommett appeared on I'm A Celebrity in 2016, he has become a household name. When the TV presenter's not busy hosting top shows like the National Television Awards , he likes nothing more than spending time with his wife Hannah Cooper. British model Hannah Cooper met husband Joel Dommett when she drunkenly messaged him with a cat emoji on Instagram, shortly after he appeared on I'm A Celeb in 2016.
She was born in Holland and is also an Instagram Influencer. Hannah has modelled for several high-street brands, including Boux Avenue, M&S and MissGuided. She's also appeared on the pages of Grazia, OK! and Sunday Express Magazine.
According to Metro Models, Hannah was discovered by a modelling scout outside Topshop in Oxford Circus at 16. If that wasn't enough, she also has a degree in Fashion Marketing. The couple were first seen together in May 2017 and married two years later in a ceremony held in Mykonos , Greece.
Love Island narrator Iain Stirling performed their ceremony. Discussing the wedding with OK! in February 2020, Joel said: "It was honestly so fun. "I was fully prepared to say it was the best day of my life and pretend it was - because I've been lucky enough to do Bake Off and I've had these amazing experiences in my life - but it was genuinely the best day of my life! "We had 28 people there.
Some people have weddings where half the day is saying hi and bye to people. "I wanted our closest friends and family to have a wonderful time." Not long after they began dating, Joel released a memoir - It's Not Me It's Them: Confessions Of A Hopeless Modern Romance - which charts romantic encounters with 40 women before he met Hannah.
At the end of the book , the comedian proposed to Hannah . The mum guilt thing is real, definitely, and if I’m not feeling guilty, then Joel will be feeling guilty, so we’re probably not that helpful to each other. Speaking to The Sun about their marriage, Joel said: "It's worked out all right, really.
I'm very lucky. "A lot of people call their wives 'babe' or 'chick'. I go for Sexy Sexpot of Sex.
"But her nickname for me is just Joel. That’s as far as it goes." In an exclusive interview with The Sun on Sunday in July 2024, Hannah revealed why she would rather Joel never did Strictly Come Dancing , citing the infamous "curse".
She told us: “I have a rule with Joel that I’d rather, if there was a choice, he didn’t do Strictly. “I hate to say it, but the Strictly curse and all that stuff. "And it makes me sound awful because Joel says, ‘Don’t you trust me?’.
"He can practise the Tango at home with me, it’s fine.” Hannah and Joel announced in May 2023 that they were expecting their first child together. In a sweet Instagram post with photos of her growing bump, she wrote: "Does anyone know how to change a nappy? Because Joel has s**t himself.
" They then welcomed their son Wilde in September 2023. Speaking to The Sun about being a mum for the first time, Hannah told us: "The mum guilt thing is real, definitely, and if I’m not feeling guilty, then Joel will be feeling guilty, so we’re probably not that helpful to each other. I really would love to (have another child), but Joel before was like, ‘one is good’.
One means we’re in control, and we can totally manage that. “There are times when he’ll say, ‘I’ll look after Wilde. Go out and have fun’.
Then he’ll send me a message saying, ‘Look at this photo of Wilde’, and I’ll go, ‘Damn it, I was in the zone with the girls’. “It is difficult managing it but you’ve got to switch off and take an hour for yourself, then you’ll feel better for it.” Talking about the possibility of another child, she added: "I really would love to, but Joel before was like, ‘one is good’.
"One means we’re in control, and we can totally manage that. “But now Wilde is here, I would totally love another one. “I feel like Joel is Wilde’s sibling.
I feel like there is enough fun in the house, and there is enough drama and energy going on." Joel started out as an actor, landing small roles in shows including Casualty, Inspector Lynley and Skins. But the funnyman has also presented or taken part in other big shows, such as: I'm a Celebrity.
