These are the pictures that caused Fern Britton's best friend to admit her marriage with her husband is over as she was pictured passionately kissing This Morning chef Phil Vickery in the street earlier this week.
Lorraine Stanton, 58, who has known Fern for decades, broke her silence after the photographs emerged of herself sharing a smooch with Phil, 61, - two years after Fern and Phil's 20-year marriage came to an end.
She told how her family is going through a 'tough time' - but said it is unrelated to these images.
