Television star Robert Peston is once again nursing a broken heart after his relationship with fellow journalist Charlotte Edwardes came to an end. The pair, who had been a high-profile media couple in London, reportedly just couldn’t make it work any longer, despite their strong bond and shared history.
Peston, 65, was devastated when his beloved wife, novelist Sian Busby, passed away from lung cancer in 2012. He later found love again with Charlotte in 2017, after they met at a Christmas party. However, Peston had once confessed that his grief left him feeling ‘desperately guilty’ about falling in love again, especially with someone so soon after his wife’s death.
The couple had enjoyed a whirlwind romance, with Peston moving in with Charlotte in 2018. Charlotte, 50, has three children from a previous marriage, while Peston has an adult son with his late wife and a stepson from Charlotte’s first marriage. Despite their deep connection, the relationship came to an end, and Peston has said the breakup is “terribly sad” but emphasized that they remain “very good friends.” 
A close friend of the couple revealed that their romance had been like a fairytale at first. “Tom had planned the perfect proposal and got down on one knee next to the Eiffel Tower,” the source says. “Kym was overcome, but she said yes immediately. She has the most beautiful ring and can’t wait to plan their special day.”
Kym Marsh has been married three times before, to army major Scott Ratcliff, Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas, and EastEnders actor Jack Ryder. Fans are left wondering what this fourth marriage will mean for her and Tom, especially as their romance has unfolded so quickly.
But despite this being Kym’s fourth trip down the aisle, sources close to the couple say they are happier than ever. They were first seen in public together in November, when they were spotted out shopping in Bakewell, Derbyshire. Since then, the couple has been inseparable, with Kym sharing sweet moments on social media. Now, with an engagement ring on her finger, Kym is ready to embrace her next chapter with Tom.
Fans are eager to see what’s next for the couple — but one thing is clear, this engagement is moving at lightning speed.
