Gladiators’ Jet was ‘engaged to woman’ despite claim wife was first female lover

Gladiators: Hunter and Jet reunite after 25 years

Gladiators legend Jet had previously claimed she’d never been in a relationship with another woman before meeting wife Zoe, but now Lisa Nottingham has made the surprise claim that she was once her ex-fiancée.

“I don’t understand why she felt the need to make out Zoe was her first female relationship,” she stated in a new interview published in The Sun.

Lisa has alleged that she had an 18-month romance with the former 90s pin-up, which “fizzled out” in February last year.

She insisted: “I’m not jealous. I’m pleased for her and I’m in a new relationship — we’ve moved on.”

Jet’s rep, Samatha Koslowski, told Express.co.uk: “Diane sees Zoe as her first female relationship because she considers it an actual relationship, unlike with her ex, as they’re madly in love.”

Last month, 53-year-old Jet married new partner Zoe after meeting her in a Tesco supermarket and being told by her that she was the most beautiful woman she’d ever seen.

Back in the day when Jet was a TV star who adorned the walls of many a teenage boy, she was not known to have been interested in same-sex relationships.

She previously dated a Gladiators co-star, hunk James Crossley, before settling down in a marriage with TV exec George Mayhew for seven years.

The paper has published a photo appearing to show 54-year-old dog-walking company boss Lisa kissing Jet on the cheek, while she playfully stuck her tongue out.

Jet previously stated that her views about her sexuality developed “organically”, leading to a low-key wedding which just nine people attended.

Last month, she appeared on a podcast with American Gladiator Ice (real name Lori Fetrick) to announce she was engaged shortly before her wedding.

Asked whether fellow Brits were aware of her sexuality, she hit back: “Probably not and I don’t care.

“We are what we are, it doesn’t matter, I don’t give a damn… I’m safe and I’m loved and there’s no threat to me anymore, and that’s what means the world to me.”

She also opened up about not feeling “tied to one sexual identity”.

Many Gladiators fans will remember Jet from back in the day, when the show often drew in mammoth audiences of up to 14 million viewers per episode.

She sadly decided to leave the show behind after suffering a painful neck injury back in 1996.

Jet previously divulged that a “horrendous” relationship with a man involving “domestic abuse” had deterred her from being in a relationship “for life”, but it seems falling in love with Zoe changed that.
