Jake Quickenden shows off kitchen in new home after splitting from wife Sophie and moving out
JAKE Quickenden has showed off the kitchen in his new home after splitting from wife Sophie and moving out.
Back in May, The Sun revealed the former X Factor and I’m a Celebrity star had split from his wife after four years of marriage.
Last month, it was revealed Jake, 38, had moved out of the marital home and now he has shown his followers a glimpse of his new property.
Standing in the kitchen near a set of double patio doors leading out into the garden, Jake said he wanted to “have a bit of colour.”
He added: “I didn’t want to go boring grey.”
To highlight his point, he showed off green, leather high stools that he had at one end of the kitchen around a table and in front of a large statement clock and funky gold lighting.

At the other end of the kitchen are white units with a gold Quooker tap over the sink which he was impressed with.
He said: “So yeah, this is the kitchen, I hope you like it, I love it.”
In the caption he added: “Kitchen reveal…. I forgot to mention some bits so any info you want just ask in comments.. seriously @quookeruk is a game changer and @babyeleganceire high chair is so cool.
“But yeah been here a week and I feel like I’ve really made it nice for me and the boys…. It’s been stressful and I’ve had ups and downs, esp falling down the stairs and putting a hole in the wall this morning, but this is home now.
“Thanks for being cool everyone have a nice weekend.“
When Jake first shared a post about his new home, he admitted fearing his two sons with Sophie – Leo, five and Kit, one – wouldn’t feel like it’s home when they come to stay.
He added: “I’m not good on my own, never have been but maybe that’s part of the journey to get comfortable alone for a while!
“It’s a strange feeling of excitement and anxiety, looking forward to making it my own but terrified to not be with the boys everyday.”
