Olly Murs<\/a> felt “disheartened and isolated” before meeting Amelia Tank.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Olly Murs felt alone before meeting his wife<\/p>\n
The couple – who married in 2022 and welcomed their first child last year – are currently expecting baby number two and now Olly, 40, has opened up about the relationship and revealed he “longed” to meet someone “special” and knew he had found his “life partner” on their first date.<\/p>\n
He told The Sunday Times newspaper: “Before I met Amelia I often felt disheartened and isolated. I questioned whether girls were dating me for the right reasons. <\/p>\n
“I saw my friends having families but I was coming home to an empty house. I don\u2019t suggest we get the sad violins out but there were moments when I longed to have someone special in my life.”<\/p>\n
Olly admitted their first date at a pub didn’t go well, but they put it behind them and went on to start a fairytale romance.<\/p>\n
\nHe added: “After that terrible date we reset and, very quickly, I knew she was my life partner. I\u2019d never felt so comfortable with someone. If my life had been a bit grey before, Amelia\u2019s love restored all the colour.”<\/p>\n
\nTheir daughter Madison was born last year and they are now preparing for the arrival of their second child, and Olly has vowed to be around to support his wife after previous going on tour soon after their first baby was born.<\/p>\n
\nHe added: “Two days after Madison was born I had to go on tour supporting Take That. <\/p>\n
\n“Amelia had lots of support around her as her mum came to stay and my parents live near us in Essex, but it was hard and I felt guilty. We both understand that my work isn\u2019t like a regular job – but second time round I\u2019m not going anywhere.”<\/p>\n
\nOlly and Amelia announced their baby news over Easter in April. <\/p>\n
\nAlongside a black-and-white video of himself, Amelia and Madison, Olly wrote on Instagram: “We\u2019re so egg-cited to share this … Another Baby Murs on the way.”<\/p>\n
\nIn the video, Olly and Amelia were seen walking hand-in-hand facing away from the camera with Madison sitting on her dad’s shoulders wearing a denim jacket that has ‘BIG SIS’ embroidered on the back. <\/p>\n
\nIn her free hand, Amelia was carrying a baby scan photo and the Cass Elliot classic Baby I’m Yours played in the background.<\/p>\n
