Anthea Turner’s love rat ex Grant Bovey joins dating app Bumble — but shaves ten years off his age
ANTHEA Turner’s love rat ex has joined a dating app, but shaved ten years off his age.
Grant Bovey, who appeared in last year’s Celebrity Big Brother, has a profile on singles site Bumble which states he is 46.
But in reality the property entrepreneur is 56 and turns 57 in March.
Former Blue Peter presenter Anthea, 57, married Bovey in 2000 but the couple divorced in 2015 on the grounds of his adultery.
The businessman — declared bankrupt in 2010 — had an affair with socialite Zoe de Mallet Morgan and was accused in the CBB house of trying to woo Geordie Shore’s Marnie Simpson.
Now he is looking for love again with the help of Bumble — which is similar to hook-up app Tinder, but allows only women users to strike up chats.
When The Sun asked why his online profile listed him as a decade younger than his real age, Bovey said: “It is my private life, I have got no idea about that. No comment.”
Asked to confirm his age, he replied: “I am definitely 56.”
Bovey has three children from his first marriage.
Anthea had always longed to start a family, but the pair were unable to have kids together.
