BBC Breakfast legend Carol Kirkwood has shared the sweet morning routine her husband Steve Randall carries out every single day. The 62-year-old weather presenter signed off from the show after 28 years on Wednesday, April 1, and was surprised by Steve with a huge bouquet of flowers during her final moments on air.
Speaking about the daily ritual, Carol said: "He always makes me a cup of tea before I go to work in the morning, which is very romantic - it's 2.45am! And he often leaves me a little love note for when I come home from work. That, to me, is worth a million red roses." The gesture was secretly arranged by Breakfast bosses, and Steve joked he was "in trouble" for keeping it a secret from her.
As she signed off for the final time, Carol burst into tears and said: "Thank you for letting me be part of your lives." Steve said he was the "proudest and luckiest man in the world," leading Carol to agree. She joked that colleagues Sally Nugent and Jon Kay should expect her back in the studio on Monday.
Steve is Carol's second husband, having previously been married to Jimmy Kirkwood. Speaking to Prima, she called him "extremely handsome" and someone who is "always making me laugh." She also confessed he's "the best thing that's ever happened to me, without a shadow of a doubt."
The romance blossomed from friendship after they met in 2017. Carol told HELLO!: "I met Steve in my 50s; we were friends before we were romantically linked. He is funny, gorgeous and, also, he is really kind, thoughtful and romantic."
