David opened up about his relationship with Hermine in a rare post he shared on social media, as his partner prepared to head to Paris to visit her family for the first time in over a year due to the coronavirus pandemic. 

'When I first met Hermine she was wearing a cherry red dress with white polka dots and smoking tobacco from a clay pipe. She told me she was the retired ringmistress of a travelling flea circus I thought she was joking, but it was true. Ça a été un coup de foudre [It was love at first sight],' David wrote. 

Confirming their marriage, he then referred to the couple's wedding rings as his gushing post continued: 'These days nobody smokes and the only rings are on our fingers. 

'These days, sleeping beside her, I wake up laughing in the middle of the night.

'Tomorrow she is leaving for Paris and Provence to visit her family for the first time in over a year, whilst I must remain here in London, hawking fine literature to the masses. I am already a little lost.'

Proving just how smitten he is, David said: ' I feel like one of her poor fleas, off balance and out of control on a flying trapeze, with no net and no one to catch me.

'Hermine is almost packed. "I'll miss you," I say, "and I expect you'll miss me". She smiles and puts on her headphones, as if to say, "Yes, of course I will".'
