Twink’s ex to have a boy with new partner

PANTO queen Twink’s ex-husband David Agnew and his 29-year-old partner Ruth Hickey are to have a baby boy in the New Year.

Ruth, who is a clarinettist in the National Symphony Orchestra, is almost five months pregnant and is expecting the baby, her first, to arrive at the beginning of January.

Speaking for the first time about her relationship with 45-year-old Agnew, who is a celebrated oboist in the same orchestra, Ruth told me this week that both David and herself are ecstatic at the news.
