Fatboy makes plea after reunion with Zoe

DJ Norman Cook confirmed today that he and wife Zoe Ball are back together.

Speaking from the couple’s beach front home in Hove, Norman, 39, whose stage name is Fatboy Slim, asked to be left alone so he and Zoe, 32, can begin rebuilding their marriage.

Zoe walked out last December and later had a relationship with fellow DJ Dan Peppe, prompting fears that her marriage to Fatboy was over.

But the couple, who have a two-year-old son called Woody, were pictured on Brighton seafront at the weekend. Both were wearing their marriage bands and appeared close once more.

Today Norman confirmed that he was back with Zoe, who presented her radio show last night, but added: “Our private life is our private life. We just want to be left alone to get on with our lives now.”

It is not thought Zoe was at the couple’s luxury home in Hove this morning.
