The 51-year-old TV presenter has recently been spending time with his father in Barbados following the death of his mum Nanette, who passed away at the age of 85 after suffering a stroke and battling with dementia.

A source said: "Nan had been unwell for a long time, and she was in her eighties, but it doesn't make it any easier for the family to come to terms with."

Jeremy has endured a particularly tough few months, after he also recently divorced wife Carla Germaine, 41, after 13 years of marriage.

Since the collapse of his marriage, Jeremy has been dating Vicky Burton, who used to serve as the nanny to his three children, and it has been speculated that the duo could soon tie the knot.

However, Jeremy is not thinking about marriage for the time being and is instead focused on the wellbeing of his father.

The source told The Sun newspaper: "Marriage is the last thing on the agenda at the minute.

"Jeremy has had an awful couple of months coping with the passing of his mum who he was extremely close to.

"That's why he took his father away on holiday - he needed the chance to relax after everything a traumatic period and he felt his dad needed a break too."

Meanwhile, Jeremy spoke about his burgeoning romance with Vicky for the first time in February, admitting she represents a "new chapter" in his life.

He shared: "It's a new relationship, a new chapter. I'm very happy thank you very much, let's move on with our lives."
