Jamie Theakston says Beyoncé tried to matchmake him once

Jamie Theakston has revealed that Beyoncé once tried to set him up with her Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland.

The Heart Breakfast host was chatting on-air with co-hosts Amanda Holden and Ashley Roberts when he recalled the unexpected moment.

While interviewing Destiny’s Child during a Top of the Pops appearance, Jamie says Beyoncé asked if he was single and then suggested he and Kelly would be a great match.

“She said, ‘Oh, Kelly’s single, you two would make a fantastic…’ and I went ‘Oh stop it!’” he told his co-hosts, laughing.

Amanda responded with “The name drop!” while Ashley said, “My jaw is on the floor,” as Jamie added, “How different my life would have been.”
