Jim Davidson, 72, Dating Maria Rice-Mundy, 60, Weeks After Calling Off Sixth Wedding

Jim Davidson, 72, is reportedly dating Maria Rice-Mundy, 60, a former beauty pageant contestant and television personality who previously dated Simon Cowell. The news comes just weeks after Davidson called off his sixth wedding to fiancée Natasha, who is 23 years his junior.

A source told the Daily Mail that Davidson and Rice-Mundy have been on several dinner dates and that he has posted a picture of her on his Facebook page. Rice-Mundy, who also co-hosted the TV game show 'Sale Of The Century,' reportedly dated Cowell in the late 1980s.

Davidson had announced his split from Natasha in early September, canceling a wedding at Hampton Court Palace for which he had paid a £10,000 deposit. He cited clashing schedules as the reason for the separation, describing it as a "grown up separation" with "no bad blood."

This marks the latest in Davidson's well-documented marital history. He has been married five times previously. His first marriage, to Sue Walpole in 1971, resulted in a daughter and ended a year later. He married Julie Gullick in 1981, divorcing five years later. His third marriage, to journalist Alison Holloway, lasted less than two years. His fourth marriage, to model Tracy Hilton from 1990, lasted a decade and produced three children. His fifth marriage was to Michelle Cotton, whom he wed in 2009 and from whom he announced his split in April 2023 after 14 years together. Davidson revealed in an interview posted on his streaming platform, Ustreme, that his fifth divorce had been finalized and a house he shared with Cotton was being sold.

Davidson had become engaged to Natasha, 49, after splitting from Cotton. He had publicly expressed his devotion to Natasha, even renaming his yacht 'Lady Natasha' after her. The couple had been seen together at Nigel Farage's 60th birthday party, where Davidson reportedly spoke enthusiastically about his fiancée.
