Lisa Snowdon has admitted she has ‘reservations’ about marrying George Smart eight years after they got engaged. 

The model, 53, and communications firm founder, 44, first dated more than 20 years ago when she was a DJ at MTV and he was the channel’s head of events. 

The lovebirds rekindled their romance a decade ago and got engaged in 2017.  

When asked when they’re going to tie the knot, Lisa admitted she has a ‘tiny hint of reservation’ that marriage will ‘change’ their relationship.

‘Deep down I do know it wouldn’t, but then I think, “Well my mum and dad’s marriage didn’t last,” and some people say, “Don’t do it because it changes things,”‘ she told The Mirror.

‘So there’s 90 per cent of me that knows nothing would change, but a tiny hint of reservation where I think it would.’

The model, 53, said she’s worried marriage will ‘change’ their relationship 

George, however, said he has no hesitation and would marry Lisa tomorrow if they could get their friends – who are ‘dotted around the world’ – all together. 

He told the outlet he ‘knows nothing would change’ and is ready to ‘have that bravery’ to take ‘the next step’.   

When asked what she’s excited for about getting married, Lisa said: ‘Being able to call him “my husband” and saying, “My husband’s coming soon, I’m just waiting for my husband!” I think I prefer “my husband” to “my fiancé” – I’d love it!”

The couple, who recently enjoyed a trip to the Caribbean to celebrate Lisa’s 53rd birthday, are planning more travel in the future to Chile, Peru, Thailand and Guatemala.

As for TV work, they said they’d love their own travel show, with George joking it should be called ‘Couples Travel’. 

The former Britain’s Next Top Model previously revealed she had early menopause and has ‘made peace’ with the fact she will never have biological children with George.

‘We’d discussed it in the past but hadn’t started trying, so I knew we’d have to explore other options in the future if we did want to become parents,’ she told The Sun in 2021.

‘George was brilliant about it and told me we could look into alternative ways in the future. It was a lot to come to terms with.’

Lisa also revealed that year that she was prescribed antidepressants after experiencing low moods and anxiety as a result of early menopause.

The presenter, who suffers from endometriosis, started experiencing depression around 10 years ago but had no idea her symptoms were a result of the perimenopause.

Appearing on Lorraine at the time, she explained that her 2016 appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! was worsened by ‘debilitating’ periods, low energy and ‘brain fog’.

The model said she relied on the pill to stop her irregular cycle.

It wasn’t until being prescribed Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) that Lisa was able to ‘take ownership’ of her health.

She hailed the treatment as a ‘game-changer’ and insisted she ‘wouldn’t be without it’.

‘When I look back it did creep up on me, it wasn’t a definite pinpoint the actual day I knew I was going into perimenopause,’ she said.

Now Lisa takes HRT for her symptoms and says that she no longer has ‘rages’ or ‘screams’ at George.

‘I am on HRT I’ve been on it for about four years and I wouldn’t be without it, It’s changed everything. It’s been a game changer,’ she said.

‘I feel like myself again, I’m not screaming at my partner, I don’t have rages.

‘I feel like I recognise myself again and I’ve been able to take ownership of looking after my health.’
