has revealed that he didn't know ex-wife Chloe's dad was as he recalled the awkward moment in a new video on Thursday.

Speaking to No Parental Guidance podcast, James said: 'I love Richard and Judy, they're great, they were always really nice to me. I didn't know Chloe was their daughter until I went on a date with her and it was the first night we spent together.

He continued: 'She took me back to her parents' house and I remember there was a picture of Richard on the wall. 

'I thought Chloe's into a bit of kinky s***, I was like I don't look anything like that guy, he's tall, dark and handsome and I was like this isn't going to last.' 

Looking a little red faced, James added: 'So I got back into bed and I was like, "Why have you got a picture of Richard Madeley on the wall?" and she was like, "He's my dad" and I was like, "Right, OK"'.
