He had vowed that he would spend the rest of his days single — before meeting Emma on his In The Country reality TV show.

 The former Wimbledon star, who lives on a West Sussex farm, said: “You think and say a lot of things when the tragedy first happens.

“I didn’t say I would never have a girlfriend again but I didn’t think I would at the time.

“As time goes on you move centimetres forward. Different things come to life again in your body and your soul and your heart.

“After she died, I thought, ‘I’m done’.

“I never thought this would happen.”

Vinnie and Tanya had been married for 25 years when she died aged 53.

The Gentlemen actor added: “I was on my own after the funeral, everybody had gone.

“The calls dried up. They had nothing to say. That’s when it got lonely.”
