Jonathan Ross mortifies daughter Honey with 'misguided' decision he made with wife

Jonathan Ross left his daughter Honey absolutely gobsmacked with a "nightmare" decision he made before walking down the aislewith wife Jane Goldman.The chat show legend first crossed paths with screenwriter Jane back in 1986 at a promotional bash for his programme The Last Resort.

Jane subsequently invited him to another gathering in the hopes she'd get another opportunity to meet him again. Their romance flourished and the duo wed two years later in Las Vegas.

When grilled about the occasion, Jonathan admitted: "Mine was really misguided, the whole thing, I don't even want to talk about it to be frank.

"I was with my friend from childhood who wasn't really my friend anymore, but I felt I should invite him. Jane had a friend with her who she had since childhood who wasn't really a friend anymore.

"We had Jane's mum and dad who were on the verge of splitting up, we had my mum and dad who had just split up, because we did it out of the country."

Honey gasped: "Oh my God, you invited them even though they were recently divorced? That's a nightmare guest list." Jonathan went on: "That night I went out with Jane's dad, who I didn't know that well at the time, my dad, who was fine, and this friend of mine that I haven't seen for years.

"It was just like, 'Why are we four people who never normally hang out together...' So I didn't do a party party, but I don't think I wanted to anyway. I was too interested in getting married."

Honey described her father's stag-do as a "classy" affair, though Jonathan admitted it proved an "uncomfortable evening". Jane, whose acting portfolio encompasses Kingsman: The Secret Service, X-Men: First Class, and Kick Ass, was just 16 and launching her journalism career when she initially crossed paths with Jonathan.

Despite the 10 year age gap between them, the duo discovered mutual interests through their collective enthusiasm for science fiction, horror films and American pop culture.

During a 2012 chat with the Times, Jane reminisced: "I met Jonathan at some sort of promotional event. He'd just started his show The Last Resort. He'd only been doing it for two weeks, I think.

"I can't remember what we talked about. I wish I could. I think I invited him to some other thing, hoping to see him again. Maybe I was less socially awkward back then."

Jonathan tackled their considerable age gap during a 2015 stint on Loose Women, explaining: "When we first got together, she was very young... I wasn't that old but I was considerably older and she came straight from home with her parents.

"And I think the relationship carried on, I was sort of a parent figure as well as a husband," he acknowledged.
