Just one week before he takes to the dancefloor for this year’s Strictly Come Dancing, Thomas Skinner has revealed he cheated on his wife Sinead during a “two-week fling”.

The reality star, who made a name for himself on The Apprentice in 2019, made the bombshell revelation and admitted it was the “biggest mistake” of his life.

Thomas, 34, has found himself in the public’s gaze due to his participation on the upcoming series of Strictly, with many hitting out at his casting due to his divisive opinions. He also recently shocked onlookers after he snatched a reporter’s phone during an interview and stormed out.

As he prepares for an onslaught of public opinion thanks to his cheating scandal revelation, let’s take a look at his relationship with wife Sinead over the years, from how they met to having a family together…

Cheating revelation

Just weeks after he tied the knot with Sinead in May 2022, Thomas revealed he had a “two-week fling” with a beauty clinic boss he met at the pub and that she offered him “cosmetic slimming treatments”.

Detailing the moment he came clean to Sinead, about his affair with Amy-Lucy O’Rourke, he told The Sun on Sunday: “I’m so lucky she forgave me. It was the worst thing I’ve ever had to do. It was terrible, I’m a very, very open book, and I don’t hide anything from my wife. She was obviously distraught, upset.”

He continued: “No one else made me do what I’ve done. But it just shows how something so brief could ruin your life.” The pair appear to be in a much better place today as she’s forgiven him for his indiscretions.

Thomas added: “My wife is my rock. She’s the person I adore more than anything in the world. And I let her down, I’m ashamed, I’m so fortunate my wife’s forgiven me, she didn’t deserve it. I was a selfish person.”

A spokesperson for Amy Lucy told the Mirror: “This has been an incredibly stressful and painful chapter in Amy Lucy’s life. She did not have a fling with Mr Skinner, she had a relationship with him and was deceived then treated appallingly. She will consider her response and speak her truth in due course.”

First meeting and engagement

Thomas and Sinead first met in a London bar back in 2018 and got engaged two years later, in July 2020. He took to Instagram to reveal he’s got down on one knee and asked Sinead to be his wife.

The BBC One star posted a snap of the two of them, with the then bride-to-be showing off her ring to the camera. He simply captioned the post: “SHE SAID YES.”

Thomas later took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share more details about the sweet moment as he revealed: “I’ve just got down on one knee to ask the love of my life to marry me. He followed with: “MY MUMMY TO BE SAID YES.”

The couple were inundated with well-wishes and congratulations messages from fans and showbiz pals as they basked in the happy moment.

Marriage and family life

Three months prior to getting engaged, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together. Sharing pictures of them both holding up the baby scan photo, he exclaimed: “BEST NEWS! Just wanted to let you know that Sinead and I are expecting a little baby.

“It works. Due date is 23 ^rd October. We are super excited! Thought I would send a little tweet to make you smile. Hope you all have a great day! We are absolutely over the moon. Thomas and Sinead,” he signed off.

The pair welcomed their baby boy Henry before going on to have twins Roma and Darla three years later on June 1, 2023.

Thomas and Sinead tied the knot in May 2022 at Hutton Hall in Brentwood, Essex. The historic venue is a popular choice for couples to get married due to it’s facilities such as a hotel, spa and conference rooms.
