Vanessa Feltz reveals her heart has shattered 'into a million pieces' following her shock split from Ben Ofoedu.

She’s missed so much – now I might start crying and I hope I don’t as that would be very unprofessional," she told viewers.
"So, when I lived to be older than my mum, and I am older, I’m 60, I’ve been so grateful to be alive. I’ve been so grateful, because I didn’t
