Hear'Say star Danny Foster posts tribute to his stunning wife Victoria as they celebrate 23 years together

Hear'Say star Danny Foster has shared a sweet tribute to his wife Victoria Goddard to mark 23 years together.

The singer, who is reuniting with his band for a nationwide tour next year, posted a message to his wife of ten years alongside a photo of the two dressed up for some recent celebrations. 

'Grateful for you @victoriagoddard1 I knew the moment I saw you… 23 years later here we are. Thank you for an amazing couple of days… beyond love ♥️ x' 

Danny, 47, and Victoria, 41, who is also a singer, married in 2016 and perform together in their soul group, Big Soul Corporation.

The couple have weathered some tough times during their 23 years together. In 2021 Victoria was diagnosed with breast cancer.

 In a 2024 Instagram post to mark three years since her diagnosis, she explained: 'Thankfully I found it and caught it super early & I had a lumpectomy & radiotherapy.'

'So if I ever come across as super annoyingly positive & grateful it’s because I am! Super grateful for every single day!' 

As well as singing together, the couple share a love of travel, developing a love of meditation and yoga after spending time in India. 

After spending time with monks and staying in ashrams Danny went on to found Love Includes You, described as a 'meditation, self love and personal development platform'.

The initiative promotes community events, daily practices and meditation inspired by the wisdom imparted on him from the monastic brotherhood. 

Danny is back in the spotlight again after Hear'Say confirmed last week that they are teaming up with Liberty X for a huge arena tour, 25 years after both bands shot to fame on TV talent show, Popstars.

The two bands will perform together for the first time ever on a 13-date arena tour in 2027, with shows in cities including Dublin, London, Manchester and Leeds.

The Hear'Say reunion features four of their original members: Danny Foster, Kym Marsh, Suzanne Shaw and Noel Sullivan, and Liberty X return with their entire original line-up: Michelle Heaton, Jessica Taylor, Tony Lundon, Kevin Simm and Kelli Young.

Myleene Klass has opted not to join Danny and her bandmates, insisting she is too busy to fit the two week tour into her schedule. 

Hear'Say were one of the earliest major UK TV-created pop groups, formed through ITV's Popstars in 2000-01.

The band were selected from thousands of applicants, with the formation of the band being documented on television.

Their debut single, Pure and Simple, was a phenomenon and went to No1 in the UK selling 549,823 copies in its first week, setting a record at the time for a debut single.

Kym left the group in January 2002 and was replaced by Johnny Shentall. The new lineup released Lovin' Is Easy, but it didn't reproduce the group's earlier success.

After being formed on Popstars in 2001, Liberty X released their debut single Thinking It Over, which reached number five in the UK charts.

But it was their third single Just A Little that turned the group into global stars as it reached number one in the UK and became the ninth best-selling single of 2002.

The band split in 2007 after their final album failed to make an impact, though they did reunite as part of ITV show The Big Reunion in 2013. 

Both bands also sat down for an interview with The Sun, and Kelli admitted the idea to reunite was something they came up with themselves.

She said: 'Jessica and Michelle came up with the idea and then we took it out there. I started talking to a few people, but actually, really, thought it was best to just approach the guys ourselves.

'We slipped into the DMs of Suzanne first and then Noel, and then it rolled away — we kind of got it going ourselves, to be honest.'

Referencing Liberty X's famous PVC outfits and sexy routines, Kym added: 'I'm a 50-year-old grandmother, so for me to be doing those kinds of dance routines that we used to do...

'They may not be as energetic as they used to be, but there will be a nod to it, for sure.'
