Vanessa Feltz’s ex-fiance, Ben Ofoedu, is set to tie the knot with a reality TV star just one year after their split.
The 51-year-old, who ended his 17-year relationship with Vanessa due to his infidelity, has been dating Precious Muir, 33. At a recent event in London, he was overheard introducing her as: “My soon-to-be wife.”
An onlooker said: “Ben was very open about the fact he is planning to wed Precious and soon. He seemed thrilled. It was surprising given how short a time they’ve been together, but they both appeared very happy.”

Ben later confessed to sleeping with an older woman in Ibiza. The Mirror reports Ben and Precious, from Channel 4’s The Circle, were spotted together just two months later.
Last year, Vanessa, 62, joined reality series Celebs Go Dating. It was here she spoke candidly to the show experts about her highly publicised split.
In the third instalment of the hit show, Vanessa admitted during a chat with the dating agents that she “needed as much help as I can get” when approaching dating again. She also said she made “so many abysmal choices in the past”.

When probed about her ex, Vanessa was open about how being in the relationship had left her questioning Ben’s feelings and intentions towards her. The mother of two said: “I was happy to love him because he was happy to be there.
“He did trickle down occasional filaments of love every so often to make me think he loved me.” She was then asked to elaborate.

She said: “In truth I cant really tell you because I don’t really know. There have been so many lies that I have no way of knowing what is the truth.
“I was told things that didn’t add up and I didn’t want to exist in an environment like that in my own home so that was the end of it. I haven’t seen or spoken to him since then and don’t want to.”
