She married James Midgley in 2010 before giving birth to their daughter Ella Rose a year later.
Earlier in March, Jenni revealed she had not eaten crisps or chips for 34 years due to her dedication to fitness, admitting ‘I’ve never even tried a Pringle or had a McDonald’s.’
The TV legend told Daily Mail she was bet £1 by her mother that she couldn’t go a week without eating crisps or chips but she’s now gone her entire adult life avoiding the deep fried snack and fast food, meaning there are some brands she has never even tried.
In an exclusive interview, the avid marathon runner revealed that her lifestyle, including waking up at 4am to present Smooth Radio’s breakfast show, means she has to be disciplined, although she does treat herself to a ‘margarita’ on occasion with friends.
After taking up running when she was 19, the star says she no longer exercises to ‘look good’ but for the long-term benefits it has on her mental health, and she’s relieved the days of skinny-worshiping ‘heroin chic’ are in the past.
She’s also thankful her daughter Ella won’t be influenced by ‘fitness DVDs’ and ‘aerobics’ now that influencers promote weightlifting and training in the gym is considered popular.
Jenni said: ‘I am quite good with my discipline to be honest.
‘I have a strict work schedule in the week, I am up at 4am, I juggle a few jobs, I’m training for the marathon, I go to the gym and play golf so when I meet my friends on the weekend, I do allow myself a margarita… but I am the type of person that if you challenge me, I will absolutely stick to it.
In an album shared to Instagram, Jenni looked happier than ever as she was pictured looking elegant in a blue dress

‘When I was 14 my mum bet me a £1 that I couldn’t stop eating crisps and chips, which were two things I loved, and so I did it… I quit them… and now it’s 34 years later and I still haven’t eaten them.
‘Since I quit crisps, there has been Pringles and Kettle Chips, they weren’t even around when I quit crisps. I never have fries… I have never had a McDonald’s.’

EXCLUSIVE
Jenni Falconer reveals she has not eaten crisps or chips for 34 years, admitting 'I've never even tried a Pringle or had a McDonald's'
Jenni, whose brand-new book Runner’s High came out in March, started running aged 19 after she struggled to ‘recognise’ herself in clothes because her busy routine prevented her from doing regular exercise.
Since then, she has fallen in love with running, competing in races such as the London Marathon and the Royal Park Half Marathon, and her motivation goes beyond the positive impact it has on her body.
She said: ‘I had just turned 19 when I started working in television, almost 30 years ago. I was at University in Leeds and working in Scotland so a mixture of the two was quite time-consuming.
‘No one went to the gym back then… I didn’t do any exercise and I started to get really unfit and I didn’t recognise myself in my clothes. One day I decided I needed to do something because I didn’t want to become unhealthy.
‘My whole attitude and reason for running has entirely changed. When I first started yes, it was to tone up and lose a few pounds but running and exercise is way more than that.
‘Nowadays I don’t exercise for weight loss. I want to be healthy and active and live a long healthy life. I want to feel good rather than look good, obviously looking good would be lovely but feeling good is more important.
‘After a run you look like an absolute mess, I have a bright red face, sweaty face, salt crusted around my mouth, I probably stink of BO, but I feel amazing and that’s why I do it.’
