“And my one golden rule for maintaining intimacy in a relationship is don’t have a TV in your bedroom.”
Jenny has also been open about getting intimate, saying her sex life is better than it ever was in middle age.
She said: “Sex in your fifties just keeps getting better. Let’s face it, when you know someone so well and have traveled so much, it’s just the best way to relax and enjoy each other.
Martin proposed to Jenny on New Year’s Eve 2014, but the star said the couple had no plans to marry right now and she thinks they’ll remain “engaged forever”.

Jenny also spoke about Martin’s rigorous fitness regime, saying that he stays in shape with strongman training and cold water training.
The Wheel of Fortune hostess joked she’d have to get him back in shape if he stopped taking care of himself.
Jenny admitted she’s no stranger to receiving inappropriate messages from some of her fans online.
The star said she often gets messages from men asking for pictures of her feet, which she described as “a little bit weird,” but she’s learned to “get around them.”
Jenny said: “I really believe you have to keep pushing or it’s a slippery slope.”
It comes after Jenny revealed she left Loose Women because she was “intimidated” by her fellow panelists and didn’t like the “energy behind the scenes”.
She officially left the ITV daytime show in 2005 but has guest-appeared a number of times since.
17 years since she last appeared as a panelist on the show, the TV presenter jokingly described the on-set energy as “fake” while explaining her reasons for her departure.
Jenny told The Sun: “I threw it out. I didn’t like the energy behind the scenes. I always felt a little intimidated by the other women.”
She was then heard describing the energy as “fake,” before adding, “No, I’m kidding. Maybe I’m just a little touchy?’
Back in September 2021, former panelist Saira Khan revealed that she had some of her “hard-to-tolerate” Lose Frauen co-stars, and claimed the chat show had “gone toxic.”
