Fred Sirieix tied the knot earlier this year to wife Fruitcake – with the happy occasion following his previous split from his partner of 12 years.
The First Dates host – the subject of Who Do You Think You Are? tonight (May 27) – has tried to keep his love life as quiet as possible. So much so that we don’t even know the real name of his wife. Instead, Fred only publicly refers to her as Fruitcake.
Three months ago, Fred Sirieix and wife Fruitcake officially said ‘I do’ in a lavish wedding in the Caribbean. The pair may have met a decade ago, but they didn’t go official until 2018. And then two years later, they were engaged.
But before Fred and Fruitcake were together, he was in a long-time relationship with Alex Spendolini.

Who was Fred’s partner before Fruitcake?
While the star has remained tight-lipped about his ex of 12 years, the pair have two children together.
Their son, Lucien, remains largely out of the public eye. But their daughter, Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix, won bronze at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games for diving. And she credits her parents for her love of diving.
After the Olympics, she said: “I didn’t want to start diving. My mum forced me to start. They would watch three-and-a-half-hour training sessions. So they medals that I have, I bring back and give straight to them because, I’m competing but I want to give back as much as I possibly can to my family.”
While Alex used to be the director of Fred’s AOS company, she resigned in 2018 – before the company dissolved in 2019. Now, according to her Facebook account, she is a strength and conditioning personal trainer.
