They stay on good terms and hope for the best for each other in the next parts of their lives. No further comments or statements will be made.’

Kim has said in interviews that she was immediately drawn to her co-star and now her ex-husband because he “seemed absolutely unimpressed and uninterested” in her pop star status, which is one of the reasons they hit it off (as well as being “very cool” and wearing a “classy leather satchel”).
In 1996, after dating for only six months, the couple tied the knot. She has previously stated that her marriage is the greatest blessing in her life.
Wilde married her Tommy co-star Hal Fowler on September 1, 1996, and said she wanted to have kids as soon as possible. On January 3, 1998, she had a baby boy named Harry Tristan. Rose Elizabeth was born on January 13, 2000. And now the pair announced their divorce.
Kim Wilde was the most popular British female solo act of the 1980s, with seventeen UK Top 40 hits. She started a new career as a landscape gardener in 1998, while she was still making music. This included hosting gardening shows on the BBC and Channel 4. In 2005, she won a Gold award for her courtyard garden at the Chelsea Flower Show put on by the Royal Horticultural Society.
