Jesse Wood reveals financial struggles after separation from Fearne Cotton, citing difficulties in securing employment. The 49-year-old musician, son of Ronnie Wood, disclosed his financial challenges during a court appearance for speeding charges.
Admitting to driving 27mph in a 20mph zone in West London last April, Jesse explained to the court his ongoing job search since his split with Fearne over a year ago. He mentioned relying on his savings for sustenance, expressing frustration over delayed employment opportunities.
With two children with Fearne and two from a previous relationship, Jesse detailed his employment setbacks to the court, emphasizing his current financial reliance on savings. He humbly apologized for his repeated speeding offenses, acknowledging his responsibility for the actions.
The court revealed Jesse’s prior speeding violations, adding to his recent offense, leading to a six-month driving ban and additional penalty points. Magistrate Richard Sanden reduced his fine to £89 due to his guilty plea, with added surcharges and court costs.
Despite his legal troubles, Jesse has found love with Gemma Gregory, a former Made In Chelsea personality. The couple publicly announced their relationship in April 2025, showing signs of a blossoming romance.
Following their 10-year marriage, Fearne confirmed the split from Jesse in December 2024, urging privacy for their family amidst the separation. Fearne herself has moved on romantically, dating Rivals director Elliot Hegarty, as seen in public displays of affection in Soho last February.
