While staying at the Longleat Forest
Center Parc, Lynda and 12-year-old Robbie
enjoyed a range of sporting activities.
Robbie¹s 17-year-old brother Michael was
away camping with friends.
“It’s not fair for the children if I discuss it,”
says the actress, best known as the mum in the Oxo advertisement for 16 years,
“because they then have to respond to people reading this. What I’ve
always tried to say to the children is that their father and I haven’t
split up amicably and that might always be the way things are.”
Lynda is always busy, for not only is she about to start filming the
second series of At Home With The Braithwaites, but she has scheduled an
appearance at the Venice Film Festival for her role as the Tsarina Alexandra in
a film called The Last Days Of The Romanovs. “If I have to work
away, I do,” says Lynda. “The boys spend some of the time with their
father. Otherwise I do the school run and have to work my life out between 9am
and 3pm. At times I feel as though I¹m hurtling from pillar to
post.”
There is no man in Lynda’s life at the moment, but she’s not worried.
³The press are obsessed with finding me a new man. But I don’t get
lonely at all. The upside of my life is that I’m so busy but,
equally, I wouldn’t wish to live the rest of my life at this level.”

takes a much-needed break with
youngest son Robbie and talks of life as a single mother
| Actress Lynda Bellingham had a well-earned break recently when she
and her youngest son Robbie headed off to Longleat forest to spend a few
carefree days at Center Parcs. For the actress it was a much-needed opportunity
to relax and de-stress after all the recent tensions in her life. In January,
her ex-husband Nunzio Peluso, was charged under a section of the anti-stalking
law and ordered to stay away from Lynda and her home for seven years so
it’s no wonder she’s been feeling under pressure. |

“I had a fantastic time,”says Lynda
of her holiday. “I’m incredibly fit
now. There are no cars on site, so
you get a bike on arival and there
were a couple of hills which made
things interesting!” |
"When we were cycling along in
the beautiful wild forest, we saw
rabbits and deer" says Lynda. |
