GLADIATORS legend Diane Youdale has married her fiancée Zoe Gilbert in a secret ceremony.
The TV icon, who was known as Jet on the popular 90s show, has told how she and her new wife Zoe, 48, wed last week after a year-and-a-half of dating.
Diane, 53, told Closer magazine: "We're married! We kept it very, very quiet.
"Literally nine people on the planet knew.
"When you're in the public eye – whether it was like me and it was literally last millennium, or in this day and age on social media – things just run away with you.
"I'm in my 50s now and we're both very private people and we thought, 'You know, let's just keep this thing quiet.'

"Over a year later, we’re going to get married. We are what we are.
"It doesn’t matter. And I don’t give a damn.
"I’m safe and I’m loved and there’s no threat to me anymore and that’s what means the world to me."
