Jay was previously married to his ex-wife Jade who he shares three children with.
They split in 2015, with Jay revealing he hit rock bottom after his marriage broke down and his charity went bust.
He says he spent a week living in his car believing he "wouldn't see tomorrow".
Furniture designer Jay is one of 26 children on his dad's side - with them all spread across various continents, including six in South America and two in Africa.
The star is the founder of Jay & Co, which is a social enterprise that helps disadvantaged and disengaged groups in society.
His interest in interiors started when he had to furnish his first flat with no money and ended up being inventive with bricks, milk bottles crates and washing lines.
