Kidd’s ex moves in with new girlfriend

HAS Jemma Kidd’s ex-husband, Arthur Wellesley, found his future Duchess of Wellington?

I hear that Arthur, who as the Marquess of Douro is heir to the dukedom, is now living with his new girlfriend, Hayley Whitehead.

The pair, who work together at his £2.5billion investment firm Oakley Capital, are sharing a home in West London after a sizzling holiday together in Ibiza earlier this year (left).

Arthur, 43, has three children with Jemma. The pair separated amicably last year.

His estranged wife, sister of former model Jodie Kidd, will hopefully not be too upset — she seems to be enjoying a glittering social life and has been spotted dining with billionaire Arpad ‘Arki’ Busson.

OLYMPIC star Adam Peaty’s daring plunge on to the Strictly dancefloor has failed to excite his fellow swimming champs.

Asked if he will be cheering on Peaty as he competes for the glitterball trophy, David Wilkie tells me: ‘I won’t be watching.’

The Berkshire-based Scotsman, 67, says: ‘I wouldn’t watch something like that if you paid me. I absolutely hate programmes like that. They’re nonsense: having people who can’t dance do something that they’re not good at.

‘It’s just an age of celebrity we live in, where you get people to do things that can either make them look stupid or look good.’

Wilkie adds: ‘If I was his agent I would definitely say: “Do it.” As a fellow swimmer, I’d probably say: “Do you really wanna do something like that?” ’
