The former glamour models followed the same career path in the noughties, gracing the covers of lads mags including, FHM and Nuts, while partying hard and hitting all the headlines.The pair were some of the most papped celebrities of the day, however, away from the camera, Jodie, 47, was reportedly livid with Rhian, 39, for having a fling with her husband.Revealing that she hasn't spoken to the Fripps Farm owner for 19 years, Rhian admitted she was seeing Jodie's then husband, Matt Peacock, 42, but insists she didn't know they were married.While appearing on The Option One podcast, she was asked which celebrity she would get into the boxing ring with. Rhian responded: “Jodie doesn’t like me so maybe Jodie Marsh.”She continued: “She got married for a TV show to a guy called Matt Peacock, he ended up seeing me on the side, which I didn’t know he was married. I thought it was all for a TV show but they actually got married.”Back in 2007, when Jodie was still a sought-after showbiz personality, she had her own reality show called Totally Jodie Marsh: Who’ll Take Her Up The Aisle?The nine-part series saw the Essex Wives star audition potential husbands all across the UK and she ended up plumping for Matt in the final episode after she picked him to be her husband. However, the marriage was over before it began with Jodie declaring she was single once more after just three months.Model Matt, who is now married with a daughter, was no stranger to the glamour world after dating Jordan star Katie Price in 2002, who Jodie had a highly-publicised feud with for two decades.Speaking after his split from Jodie, Matt blamed his relationship with Katie for the break-up, musing: “I think the fact that I’d been out with [Katie] must have done it for Jodie.“She’s obsessed with her. She’s a sandwich short of a picnic.”Jodie went on to marry James Placido in 2015, but they called it quits after a year. The former bodybuilder, who now owns at animal sanctuary in Essex, is currently single and has stated she is “done with men” following her breakup from her builder boyfriend Mark in 2024.Meanwhile, Rhian is married to Coronation Street star, Oliver Mellor.
