‘My father makes a traditional Danish pudding with a cherry sauce that is totally decadent and delicious,’ the Dolce & Gabbana spokesperson said.
‘And, my family cooks a Christmas pudding every year that is like a tapioca sort of a pudding with a cherry sauce, warm fruit sauce.

‘And I know I have more tools to communicate, not just with my partner, but with myself. That’s not necessarily any reflection of who I was married to or what was happening in my marriage, but really where I was in my life.

‘When I was first married, I was much younger. And I have had the opportunity now to work more on getting to know myself. I think that makes you a better partner and somebody who is able to work with somebody and stay in a relationship in the not-romantic moments.
‘I have more patience with myself. I have more patience with my partner. I think that just comes with age, probably.’
Scarlett wed Romain in a private ceremony officiated by Richard J. Miller on October 1 in Philipsburg, Montana. The ceremony took place at the Ranch at Rock Creek.
