My absolute favourite picture of Jamie and I ❤️ taken on our very first holiday together in Crete. Everything about that holiday was perfect...even the dodgy building sight of an apartment we stayed in! Even then he managed to cobble together the most delicious pasta's on our tiny terrace!! This picture was taken the morning after I said my wish was to sleep on the beach under the stars, so we did ❤️ a holiday I will never forget! Think I need to frame this now as opposed to keeping in my wallet but I just like to peek at it now and again @jamieoliver ✨🌙🌴💛 xxx

Jamie Oliver married model, fashion designer and his childhood sweetheart, Juliette Norton (commonly known as Jools) in July of 2000. They have five children together with a 14 year age gap between the eldest Poppy and youngest River. 

When asked if the pair would add any extras to their family Jamie told The Telegraph in August 2018, "I think at 42 you're pushing your luck. I haven't got any more room in the car, so we'd have to buy a bus." He added: "But Jools would love me to say 'never say never.' She'd tell me not to rule it out." Jools hasn’t ruled it out either telling Vogue that she would "never really draw the line, I'm getting older, but I'd definitely do it again if I could," she said.

One of my absolute happiest memories of our summer x all full of cold and flu and this feels a little bit like a life time away x getting that back to school sinking feeling I had when I was little after every holiday and every Sunday night not sure you ever shake that!!! Going to miss our after tea walks through the corn fields and all the chatting and endless questions from the little ones, precious times 💛🌾🌻☀️🚜🍂

While Jamie understands that he can’t force any of his kids into cooking. “When they were sort of aged seven to 11, they picked and washed, they would make all the dressings for the salads. They would help me with the marinating. So any stuff that meant getting involved with bashing and thudding or drizzling,” he explains.

The most promising to follow in Jamie’s footsteps is Buddy who is showing a keen interest in cooking at home. Oliver explained to HELLO! Online "he's seven and he's got a bit of an issue with me. He thinks I don't let him cook enough - which is not true - but he tells mum [Jamie's wife Jools Oliver] that I need to work harder in letting him cook more at home," he shared. "When I've investigated at home, I'm like, 'I do. I'm always cooking with him - what's his problem?'"
