'Roger makes me feel loved, for being me'

Roger Hawes and Janey Smith have gone from strength to strength since meeting on the ITV reality show My Mum, Your Dad in May.

The couple found love after being signed up for the dating show by their children - Roger's daughter Jess, 29, and Janey's son William, 20. Janey had experienced years of failed relationships, while Roger's wife Joanne died from cancer 18 months before the show.

Having just spent Christmas together, the pair are more smitten than ever. And they're looking forward to celebrating their first Valentine's Day as a couple. Ahead of it, they've taken part in a photoshoot for a new Ann Summers campaign - and they look like true professionals.

"I'm 48 and never would I have thought I'd be in Ann Summers," Janey tells new. "It's really made me feel empowered and it's exciting doing something different like this. It pushed me out of my comfort zone, but doing the shoot with Roger made me feel more at ease.

Roger, 59, adds, "We just can't believe the opportunities we are being given. It's a real pinch-me moment."

As well as working with Ann Summers, they've also landed jobs on This Morning, presenting a new travel segment.

Here, former postman Roger, who has another daughter, Alex, 26 and a son Ben, 22, and singer Janey, whose only child is William, open up about their relationship and dealing with their newfound fame...

Hi guys! How is your relationship going?

Janey: Things are really great. We're so happy. And as cheesy as it sounds, we just love being together and having a laugh. Every day we learn more about each other. We just want to be in each other's company all the time. Being together feels like the most natural thing.

Roger: It's crazy to think that this time last year I hadn't even met Janey and now I have this incredible woman in my life.
