In a recent interview with Lorraine, Lisa admitted that she reckons she’ll have trouble keeping her husband-to-be out of the kitchen on their wedding day.
She joked, “I think I will have to be making sure that he has not gone off to the kitchen to check on stuff. He did say, ‘The night before, I think I will cook this,’ and I was like, ‘You are not cooking anything!'”
