Their ‘struggles’
Patrick Kielty previously revealed that he and wife Cat Deeley ‘struggled’ with their conflicting work schedules.
The TV power couple met on Fame Academy in 2002 and previously lived in the US. Cat and Patrick now live in London, from where Patrick commutes to Dublin to present The Late Late Show.
“There was a moment after Christmas that was tricky,” Patrick told the Times last year, meaning Christmas 2023. Cat’s show, So You Think You Can Dance, had started filming its 18th season in late December.
“She had to fly to Atlanta for seven weeks. There was a wee bit of a juggle there. But I think with all these things, as long as you have a routine, it doesn’t take as much fizz out of you as some people think.”
The juggle was real for the couple earlier this year when Patrick laid his mother to rest and Cat missed the funeral. Her rep said she remained in London so that she could be there for her boys before and after she started work on the ITV show.
They also previously raised eyebrows when they revealed that they sleep in separate beds.
