Who is Mark Owen’s wife Emma Ferguson, how many children do the couple have and how did they meet?
PLENTY of women are desperate to bag a boy band member, but Mark Owen's wife Emma Ferguson is one of very few who actually manage it.
Hordes of fans used to lust after Take That singer Mark, but he is now firmly settled down - so what do we know about his wife Emma Ferguson? Here's all you need to know...
Who is Emma Ferguson?
Emma is an actress, having appeared on airline comedy Mile High in 2003, and with voice acting roles in video games and guest roles on The Bill.
She speaks three foreign languages fluently, having travelled the world as a child. She lived in Hong Kong, Germany and the UAE as a young girl.
But nowadays she is best known as a wife and mum to two kids with Take That star Mark.
How long has she been married to Mark Owen and do they have children together?
Emma and Mark met in 2004, and were engaged in 2006 after being together for two years.
They got married in November 2009 in a church in Cawdor, Scotland.
The pair also have three children together.
They have a son, Elwood Jack, born in 2006, and two daughters, Willow Rose, born in 2008, and Fox India, born in 2012.
The Take That boys have often brought their children to tours and rehearsals and Mark and Gary have children roughly the same age.
Has Mark Owen ever cheated on Emma Ferguson?
The pair are happy now but Mark was not always faithful.
In 2010 Mark admitted to cheating on his wife with up to ten different women - when they had been married for mere months.
He blamed a series of one night stands on his out-of-control drinking when he was on Take That's reunion tour following their comeback album 'Beautiful World'.
One affair had begun in 2004, around the same time he began dating Emma. Mark met up with account manager Neva Hanley repeatedly during his relationship with his wife, reportedly including shortly before his baby girl was born in 2008.
Emma was completely betrayed by Mark's infidelity, telling friends she didn't recognise him and wasn't sure they could get past the problem. But in the end she forgave him - and Mark has said he's "relieved" and "grateful" that they were able to work out their differences and stay together.
But Mark's unfaithful past is firmly behind him now and he and Emma seem happier than ever.
