Billie Faiers’ husband shares epic 11-year throwback snaps from their first dates

Billie Shepherd, née Faiers, and her husband Greg are celebrating their 11-year anniversary today.

The 32-year-old mum-of-two has been married to 37-year-old businessman Greg since 2019 after eight years of dating, and they currently star together in an ITVBe reality show titled Billie and Greg: The Family Diaries.

Greg has taken to Instagram to commemorate their over-a-decade relationship with a series of epic throwback snaps from their first dates.

Billie, 32, looked worlds away from how she does currently as she and Greg posed with a can of Strongbow at what looked like a wedding.

The baby-faced pair grinned as the cuddled in close for the picture in the early days of their relationship.

Billie still sported her signature dyed blonde locks but her face looked wildly different to how it does now.

Other snaps in the sweet video, which played to the sounds of Damien Rice’s The Blowers Daughter, included one from their stunning wedding day in the Maldives.

Fans will recall that their nuptials drew negative attention from around the world as their 100-strong ‘yobbish’ wedding party turned a luxury resort into the 'Costa Del Sol,' according to disgruntled holiday-makers.

Greg also included snaps of the happy couple with their two children; Nelly, eight and Arthur, five.

Another snap showed the family paddling their feet in the sea while little Nelly planted a kiss on her mum’s pregnant belly.

“Love these pics of our 1st dates not a worry In the world apart from my teeth,” Greg wrote, joking about his wonky smile from before he had veneers fitted.

“Happy anniversary @billieshepherdofficial 11 years of putting up with me” [sic]

Billie has been having a rough time of it lately as she and her sister Sam Faiers revealed their mother was hospitalised when a water infection developed into sepsis.

Sam and Billie explained that Suzie, 53, started feeling unwell last week and she started deteriorating 'massively'.

Our mum wasn’t very well. It started last week, she had a water infection and it got worse and worse which resulted in going into mum’s kidneys," they said on The Sam & Billie Show.

"So we took her to A+E because she massively deteriorated.

"She had antibiotics and it wasn’t working. I managed to speak to a doctor and I told him all of her symptoms so he told me to take her to A+E because she needs medical attention. Basically the water infection had got so bad that it turned into sepsis."

Their mother was feeling 'so poorly' and was 'feverish, being sick, weak' and had 'pains in her back and was delirious'.

Suzie is now back home and has 'recovered so well'.
