James Lewis, beloved Bargain Hunt star, has found happiness once more after marrying his new husband, Ed Otter, who is 18 years his junior. The 53-year-old television personality tied the knot in an intimate ceremony with just 50 close guests in attendance, marking a fresh chapter after the end of his marriage to his ex-wife.
In a heartfelt interview, James opened up about how he met Ed and the whirlwind of emotions that led them to say “I do.” He revealed that it was “love at first sight” after his split from Annabelle, the mother of his daughter, Arabella. While initially planning a quiet elopement to Yellowstone National Park, the couple decided to invite their parents and his daughter, making the day even more special.
Despite the joy, James’ wedding day was overshadowed by a major health scare. Having already survived two cardiac arrests in the past, James shared that his heart rate spiked to an alarming 250 beats per minute on his wedding day. He was advised by his cardiologist to avoid stressful situations, but the special day was too important to pass up.
James praised Ed for being a calming influence in his life, especially during the difficult moments. He spoke fondly of Ed’s easy-going nature, contrasting it with the more complicated dynamics of his previous marriage. The couple’s bond has been strengthened by their shared experiences, and James expressed how lucky he felt to have found such a supportive partner.
The couple’s love story is truly one for the books, as James’s health battle has only made his connection with Ed stronger. The two are now building a life together, and James is grateful to have a partner who not only loves him but also gets along beautifully with his daughter. Arabella now calls both James and Ed “Dad,” a testament to the close-knit family they’ve formed.
James continues to appear on Bargain Hunt regularly, and his fans are thrilled to see him living his best life, finding love once more after overcoming so much. This heartwarming story of love, second chances, and overcoming challenges is an inspiration to many.
