“Lil showed us our rooms, she was very serious; I said, ‘Cor! She’s gorgeous!’ But Si thought she was scary.”
The couple found mutual admiration and after six years of companionship, they exchanged vows in 2011 in Dave’s native town, Barrow situated in Cumbria.
The occasion was graced by their loved ones, including Si, who held the honour of being his best man, reports Birmingham Live.
Reflecting on his marriage proposal, Dave humorously told The Mirror: “I didn’t propose.”

He elaborated: “She’s still waiting! There was all this kerfuffle about papers so we talked about it and decided we should get married to secure the relationship. We were dead sure it was right and her mum and dad were coming over so we did it.
“We did end up having 400 people there. It was an epic. It was off the cuff, it just grew.”
Following Dave’s passing, Liliana has taken the reins of his stakes in the ventures he had with his co-presenter Si, who is 57 years old. Their paths first crossed during a shoot for Hairy Bikers in Romania in 2006, where Liliana worked at a hotel.
The duo exchanged vows in 2011, with Dave becoming a stepfather to her two kids. After his death, Liliana penned a heartfelt tribute online: “Rest in peace, my love.
“My wonderful, brave man! Till next time we meet!”
Before his cancer announcement last year, she had been appointed as a director of Dave’s production firm.
Si announced the sad departure of his on-screen companion with a touching tribute on social channels a couple of months ago.
