Gail Porter has opened up about her two-year relationship with the late Keith Flint.
The dance legend died in March last year at the age of 49.
Gail and Keith met on a blind date and instantly hit it off.
However when he accompanied Gail on a trip to the Maldives for work, the relationship began to break down as he had ‘a few issues’.
Speaking to Louis Theroux’s podcast Grounded with Louis Theroux, she described the Prodigy star as ‘the love of my life’.
‘I absolutely loved him, I miss him, terrible what happened,’ she said.
‘ I was single and we went out and we did not stop laughing for the entire evening and then practically that was us together, almost for two years.
‘The good thing was, he didn’t really talk about work, I didn’t really talk about work, we would just go and do fun things.
‘I was actually doing a programme called Wish You Were Here…I got asked to go to the Maldives…me and Keith went and he had a few issues with a few things.’
When Louis asked if it was his mental health or drugs he struggled with, Gail said it was ‘a bit of everything’ and he had ‘had a few wobbles’.
Their mental health was in a good place on the trip, but when they returned home Keith hit a low point once more.
Gail shared: ‘Of course everyone is going to be extremely happy if you’re in the Maldives, we were so lucky and then when we got back I said “right, I’m going to go back to work and you go back to work”, he just didn’t get his mind back into things properly.’
Adding that the relationship ‘just seemed to work’ at the beginning, she said: ‘I always thought there was going to be that moment when we are going to have bad times at different times and it kind of worked that way unfortunately.’
Grounded with Louis Theroux is available on BBC Sounds every Monday and BBC Radio 4 every Wednesday at 8pm.
