Overview
- James Lewis, in interviews published Friday, confirmed he quietly married colleague Ed Otter in September 2025 in a small ceremony.
- His ex-wife was identified as Annabel, and his 17-year-old daughter Arabella attended the wedding and now calls Otter “dad.”
- Lewis said he has survived two cardiac arrests, has a defibrillator fitted, and saw his heart rate surge to over 250 beats per minute on his wedding day.
- Otter works as the Toys, Trains and Juvenalia specialist at Lewis’s auction house, and Lewis said working with him is easier than with Annabel.
- Details first appeared in a Mirror interview and were expanded by other outlets, which also noted his BBC presenting career and long charity work with Born Free.
