However, Steve Wright and Cyndi Robinson divorced in 1999.
A friend of the radio presenter told The Mirror: "It came out of the blue.
"Cyndi just said, 'That's it. I'm off."
Did Steve Wright have any children with Cyndi Robinson?
Cyndi and Steve had two children together.
Their names are Lucy Wright and Tom Wright.
In 2007, when Tom was 23, it was reported that he was dating Jude Law's ex-wife Sadie Frost.
A friend told the Daily Mail: "Sadie and Tom have known each other for a while through Sadie's ex Kristian Marr.
"Tom has been staying on and off at Sadie's Primrose Hill home because he moved out of the flat his dad bought him after they fell out."
In July 2019, the Mirror reported that Tom presented a music night in Camden, London, and that he was friends with the late great Amy Winehouse.
The same article explained that both of Steve's children lived at home with him — at the time Lucy was 25 and was Tom 32.

"In addition to his son, Tom, and daughter, Lucy, Steve leaves behind his brother, Laurence and his father Richard.
"Also, much-loved close friends and colleagues, and millions of devoted radio listeners who had the good fortune and great pleasure of allowing Steve into their daily lives as one of the UK's most enduring and popular radio personalities.

He went on to explain that the two-hour show would be made up of "the greatest love songs of all time".
