Is Bev Turner married and does she have children?

Bev married Olympic hero James Cracknell in 2002, and they went on to have three kids together Coryde, Kiki and Trixie.

However, in April 2019, the couple announced they were divorcing.

The pair had previously spoken of marriage difficulties following James' horror bike crash in 2010, which left him with terrible brain injuries.

The Olympian revealed how the horrific crash left him with epilepsy, a changed personality and short temper.

Bev and James even wrote a book together about his horror crash called Touching Distance.

At the time of their split, they released a short statement, which said: “We can confirm that sadly we separated last year.

"Together, we remain committed to our amazing children, they are our absolute priority.”

James added that he and Beverley did everything to make their relationship work out.

But he commented: "We're also, as any couple is, different people from who you were 17 years ago and we can look back and say we did everything."

Since they split, Bev has entered into a new romance with a man called James Pritchett.

The Sun exclusively revealed in September 2019, how she had found love again with the eco-housing property developer.

The couple were introduced through a mutual friend, with a source telling us: “It’s still pretty new but both Bev and James number two are really happy.

“He’s a lovely chap, and the pair have a lot of the same interests. He’s met nearly all her friends and they think he’s brilliant too.”

James has also moved on with his new wife Jordan Connell, who he wed in 2021.
