Frank Skinner Marries Long-Term Partner Cath Mason After 24 Years
Comedian Frank Skinner has revealed that he has married his long-term partner Cath Mason after 24 years together. The couple, who share a son named Buzz, got married in a low-key ceremony at Camden Town Hall, with Buzz acting as a witness. According to The Sun, Frank, 68, shared the news on the latest episode of his podcast, Frank Off The Radio.
The couple’s journey to marriage has been a long and winding road. Frank had previously proposed to Cath on several occasions, but was rejected each time. During a recent show, Frank revealed that Cath had turned down his offer of marriage four times. He joked that maybe there was a personal reason she didn’t want to marry him, or that she didn’t like him as much as he thought she did. Frank also speculated that Cath’s parents’ divorce may have contributed to her cynicism about marriage.
However, after years of persuasion, Cath finally agreed to tie the knot, but with some strict conditions. According to The Sun, Frank told co-hosts Emily Dean and Pierre Novellie on his podcast that Cath had a list of rules for the wedding. She didn’t want a party, guests, a church ceremony, a ring, or a white wedding dress. Frank said, "I said to Cath, ‘Will you marry me?’ and she said ‘I’m not having a f*ing party! I don’t want a load of guests. I’m not going in a church. I don’t want a ring. I’m not wearing a stupid f**ing white dress’."
Frank revealed that he eventually agreed to Cath’s terms, and they got married on the stairs at Camden Town Hall. He said, "Don’t be offended, we didn’t invite anyone. Buzz was a witness. We got married not in a room but on the stairs at Camden Town Hall." The Sun reported that Frank and Cath have been together for 24 years and share a son named Buzz, who was born in 2012.
As reported by The Sun, Cath still had a couple more rules after agreeing to marry Frank. She reportedly said, "’I’m not changing my name and I’m not wearing a ring. I don’t wear jewellery’," which Frank noted was true. She also expressed concerns that wearing a ring would make her feel trapped, to which Frank jokingly replied, "you’ll be married, you’re supposed to feel f***ing trapped! That’s what it symbolises. It’s like a shackle!"
The news of Frank and Cath’s marriage has been met with congratulations from fans and friends. Despite their low-key ceremony, the couple seems happy to have finally tied the knot. As The Sun reported, Frank joked about Cath’s reasons for not wanting to marry him, showing that the couple has a strong sense of humour about their relationship.
