The star revealed the pair instantly had a connection when they met in the toilets of the production.

Speaking on Loose Women about  their romance, Noel said: "It was 11.06am on October 6 2006, I remember that. In those days Deal had not really taken off."

Liz - whose full name is Elizabeth Davies - swiftly added: "It started off in the toilets."

Noel clarified: "My dressing room was a toilet."

Liz went on to explain how the couple may not have met, or married in 2009, if she hadn't accepted the job on the programme.

She explained: "I was running the department and when Deal first started they asked me to do it, but I didn’t want to do it because I was juggling other jobs.

"I got my friend to do it, but she was offered a commercial. I covered for her and agreed to do it for three days.

"When we met it was extraordinary."

While Liz admitted she had always had a soft spot for Noel ever since she was a child, as she had a poster of the Noel's House Party star pinned on her wall.

The beauty expert - who is almost 20 years Noel's junior - shared: "When we met I knew he was, I had a picture of him on my wall when I was little."

Noel then quipped: "She told me she had a poster on her bedroom wall, and I was between The Wombles."

To which Liz - who has two sons Harrison and Cameron - quipped: "My love of things hairy were deep stemmed."

Noel was previously married to Helen and Gillian Slater before finding love in Liz, but he insists he met his partner at a time he was looking for love.

He gushed: "I did want to find love in my life. I had gone through a very difficult and challenging time. I knew Liz was there before I even turned around."
