They met on the Pointless star’s game show House Of Games in 2020, in which four celebrities compete with each other in a series of daily challenges.
Ingrid – the daughter of Conservative MP Jo Gideon – attended the selective Tiffin Girls’ School in Surrey and won praise for her BBC sketch show Watson & Oliver with school friend Lorna Watson before winning a role in Doctor Who.
Richard told HELLO magazine of their meeting: ‘Ingrid came on House of Games. I knew who she was through social media. We’d never met – I had never met her. I had a little twinkle in my eye, I’ll admit that.
‘She came on, we filmed that day together. Our first date is completely on camera. After filming, I was thinking, “How can I ask her for a drink, this is difficult.”‘
Appearing on the Christmas Day edition of Desert Island Discs, he said: ‘I’m happy with myself, I’ve got these beautiful kids, I’ve met the woman who I’m going to be with for the rest of my life.

The host finalised his divorce from his former wife in 2007 and has two children, daughter Ruby and son Sonny, with her.
In the last few years, Richard has dated jazz singer Sumudu Jayatilaka and Absolute Radio host Emily Dean, although both relationships were short-lived.
