'I just knew it wasn't right': Myleene Klass reveals she was 'sobbing in the bath' the night before wedding to her cheating ex husband - and knew she needed a divorce three days in
Myleene Klass has revealed she was 'sobbing in the bath' the night before her wedding to her cheating ex husband Graham Quinn.
The former Hear'Say popstar, 46, appeared on Loose Women on Thursday where she said 'she knew it wasn't right' between her and her partner at the time but went through with things anyway.
The couple first started going out in 2001 and were together for 12 years until Graham walked out on Myleene on her birthday in 2013, just half a year after their wedding day.
Speaking on the show Myleene then admitted she knew that he may have been unfaithful ahead of their wedding day and said she realised she wanted a divorce three days into the marriage.
The singer revealed that she was told to leave him at the alter by her friends and said the night before the nuptials she was still deciding what to do.

Myleene said: 'I was in the bath the night before I got married – which most of us know, didn't end well, in fact it went so badly that the priest even offered to annul the wedding. It was that quick!'
'I was in the bath and I was just sobbing because something didn't feel right, I just knew it wasn't right. And my girlfriend, now my girlfriend of 18 years, at the time she just said, 'The car is outside.' Like Thelma and Louise, we could just go.'
'At the time I didn't feel I could go, I had two children, and I had this wedding, you know we had the cathedral and we had the priest and it was just everything was there.'
She then admitted she knew that he may have been unfaithful ahead of their wedding day.
'I had a clue about the cheating and even his friend – it became a very crowded bathroom because his friend shimmied up onto the balcony because I wouldn't open the door and he said 'What are you doing?''.
Back in 2019 Myleene explosively detailed how she developed a dependence on alcohol during her divorce in 2013.
Speaking candidly to Kate Thornton and Tamzin Outhwaite on Yahoo's White Wine Question Time podcast, she admitted her drinking would start before 11am and she would struggle without alcohol in five hour gaps.
The star spoke about the humiliation she felt following the divorce and how she was struggling financially.

Myleene wed Graham in an idyllic ceremony in October 2011, with just 16 guests in attendance, however their romance came to a crashing close six months after the wedding before they were granted a divorce two years later.
Having always been candid about the acrimonious nature of the split, in 2019 she opened up about the devastating impact the break-up had on her mental health.
The star, who is now happily in a relationship with Simon Motson, said: 'I was doing breakfast TV and I went to get out the car and I thought, 'I can't'... I was right in the middle of the divorce...
'And I opened the door, and I couldn't get out the car. I couldn't breathe. Finances were spiralling because I thought, 'I'm going to lose everything''.
On the split, she said: 'The humiliation, you've got people looking at you, blaming you without a clue as to what the f**k is going on...
'Lauren (Laverne) came and visited me at 4 in the morning, that’s how low I was. I didn't want it (divorce) to define me, but it did change me irrevocably. I've never ever been in the position where I've had to ask people for help.'
On her drinking, Myleene said: 'I remember waking up and thinking it's ok to have a drink at 11am, because I hadn't had a drink in 5 hours'.
Myleene was thrown into financial peril after the split, as her reported £11million fortune was put in jeopardy as she refused a pre-nuptial agreement.
Speaking to the Mirror after the split, she said of Graham: 'I married a convicted drug dealer and didn't sign a prenup. What was I thinking? When I say that sentence aloud, I realise how stupid it was...
'I just wish I had listened to my dad, my friends and everyone in the papers. Everyone could hear the alarm bells except me. I should have just opened my eyes.'

The star is now happily in a relationship with Simon Motson (seen). She has two children - Ava and Hero - from her relationship with Graham
Despite her allegations, he took to Twitter to hit back saying: 'Thankyou for once again slandering my name in the papers to promote yourself...
'It's frankly embracing and complete lies…@KlassMyleene. I've stayed quiet for three years now but enough is enough. Please explain to me how I took your money?
'I lost so much money from our divorce and our house that we bought together. And further money from fighting you over letting me be a father to my kids whom I haven't seen in over a year.. shameful...
'One day I hope you will put the interests of your children first and let them see their father. Instead of focusing on what lies you can tell to boost your career.'
