Speaking to Jonathan Ross, Smith said: “I met him and I just… they say you know instantly. We just clicked and suddenly it just wasn’t difficult any more.”
Smith said she now lives on a farm with her fiance, away from the media glare and the stress of the entertainment industry.
She added: “We’re always working with people in the industry and I wanted a bit of normality.
“I don’t ever get to meet anyone who is not in the industry. Not that that’s bad, but I just really wanted someone away from that and that’s what I’ve got.
“We’ve got our little farm with my donkeys. It’s my little bit of sanity away from the madness, to be honest.”
The full interview is on The Jonathan Ross Show on Saturday at 9pm on ITV.
