Richard Osman has had an illustrious career in television and comedy spanning more than two decades.
After graduating from Trinity College, Cambridge in politics and sociology, Richard produced numerous shows, including Deal or No Deal. But he is perhaps best known for his role on the BBC quiz show Pointless and his gameshow House of Games.
Richard has also made a name for himself in the literary world, breaking records with his debut novel The Thursday Murder Club.

But away from the cameras, Richard who is father to Sonny and Ruby, was previously married but he divorced his wife in 2007. He also owns a cat, Liesl, who he regularly posts photos of on his Instagram account.
Richard is currently dating Doctor Who star Ingrid Oliver, who he has been with since December 2021. The comedian, 44, met Richard during the first lockdown and the relationship blossomed from there, reports MyLondon.
Her mother is a Conservative MP for Stoke-On-Trent Central and has been a member of parliament since 2019. Ingrid has appeared in shows such as Peep Show, Doc Martin, Plebs and Silent Witness.
The couple recently returned from a relaxing getaway in Oman. Posting a series of photos on Instagram, Richard showed off some personal photos of his stay at Six Senses Zighy Bay in Oman.
He captioned his post: "Just back from the most beautiful holiday in Oman. I promise I was writing when I was there. Thank you Six Senses. (This is not an ad, it was just gorgeous)." The first photo shows a gorgeous view of palm trees with yellow sun loungers overlooking a pool.
The other photos show gorgeous rocky mountains, a stunning beach view with blue skies, and an empty stony road leading up a hill.
In a further development, Ingrid recently moved into Richard's newly renovated home in Chiswick, London. He posted a photo on his Instagram profile last year during the renovation with the caption: "New house SO nearly done." The brand-new pad included details of an ultra-modern bathroom, a brand new living space and some of the large bay windows.
One of the photos featured black metal detailing and a roll-top tub, and another photo shows a bathroom fitted with a white ceramic sink and wooden window shutters.
However, Richard isn't the only celebrity in his family. His older brother is musician Mat Osman, the bass guitarist in the hit indie band Suede.
Richard once recalled that he'd hear Mat and Suede singer Brett Anderson recording demos upstairs at home as a teenager. He said on The Douglas Anderson Show: "I have always been a fan. And then it broke for them very, very big in the early 90s, and it was amazing."
