Jane McDonald has said she cried so much during late fiancé Eddie Rothe ’s proposal that onlookers thought they’d split up.
The 59-year-old star first met the rocker, who was the drummer in The Searchers, at a club in Wakefield back in 1980, and they embarked on a teenage romance, as Jane was just 17 at the time.
However, they parted ways after a few months of dating, and didn’t see each other again until they were reunited in 2008, and they quickly struck up a relationship.
