Van Outen: 'Mead's more mature than me'

Denise Van Outen has claimed that she never notices the age gap in her relationship with Lee Mead.

The 35-year-old, who is currently pregnant, explained that her 28-year-old husband acts older than he is.

"I don't notice the age gap at all," she told Now. "Seven years sounds like a lot, but it's nothing, considering that Lee's more mature than me."

She added: "I've got a bit of a naughty streak. If someone dares me to do something, I'll usually go through with it."

Mead recently announced that he will join the cast of Wicked later this year.
