This Morning's Ben Shephard shared a rare glimpse at his beautiful wife Annie as he celebrated 22 years of marriage with the love of his life.

Taking to Instagram to post the snap, Ben wrote: "So 22 yrs today @mrsannieshephard said: 'Oh, go on then,' and that was that! It might have taken me 9 yrs to realise it and to ask her to marry me but she's still the best thing to happen to me. Followed closely by Mark Noble (obvs)," referencing the West Ham football legend.

Ben's podcast co-host commented: "This is THE BEST," as his This Morning co-star Cat Deeley wrote: "Oh go on then, The Marvelous Mrs Sheps."

The couple tied the knot back in 2004 in Salcombe, Devon after they met as students in Birmingham.

Ben recently spoke to Daily Mail's Weekend Magazine and adoringly explained: "She has been through everything with me, the highs and lows. Shes exceptionally patient and Im very patient with new shoes. What I really think is that we were great mates when we got together."

"Annie has been brilliant at allowing me the space to go off and do the job I do. Shes been the most important factor in our lives as a family; this amazing influence who created the home for our boys to become who they are and certainly made me better at being a dad."

The couple share two sons, Sam and Jack. Sam is studying at university while Jack is working and saving up to go travelling, so the Shephards are preparing for the boys to fully fly the nest anytime soon.

Ben said: "Both of us feel like this next stage is really exciting. We do live quite separate lives. Im off working, she has her job, which is garden and interior design."

"If Ive got spare time I want to do something physical: play golf, go for a run, go to the gym, see some football or rugby. She wants to go to an art gallery or see a garden. Its about finding things that work for both of us, but as I say, that feels really exciting."
