Vanessa Feltz has revealed that her first kiss was with none other than iconic DJ Pete Tong at the tender age of 10.
The broadcaster, 62, appeared on pal Kate Thornton’s White Wine Question Time podcast after opening up about her life in new memoir Vanessa Bares All: Frank, Funny and Fearless.
Former X Factor host Kate, 51, admitted she was stunned to read that her long friend shared a smooch with Pete, 64, after they met in Mallorca while on holiday with their families in the 1970s.
Vanessa recalled: [It was] my first kiss and he I can’t deny it. However much he wishes he could deny it, he can’t. Because it is true’.
The former Celebrity Big Brother star went on to reveal that she and the hitmaker even stayed in touch after returning home to the UK.

Saying: ‘I think I went to his house once and his mother was really, really a pretty, pretty lady and so sweet and nice. And, you know, she was happy to bring him to drive all the way to Totteridge’.
‘I can’t remember where they lived, but far away somewhere or other…but obviously it petered out. But he was a very lovely guy and very fond memory’.
Sharing further insight into the kiss she quipped: ‘There were no tongues, there were lots of lips. There was a great deal of lips, but not really tongues’.
‘I was just a bit too young for that. But he was such a lovely boy. He was so handsome. And I honestly think he had violet eyes’.
She went on: ‘I don’t know if he really did, but to me, they look violet in that beautiful light of the four star Toucan Hotel in Cala d’Or in Mallorca. I just thought he was divine’.
However Vanessa said that despite hearing the world class DJ’s music ‘every single second’ and both being huge stars they have never met again as adults.
MailOnline have contacted Pete’s reps for comment.
Vanessa previously spoke about her and the DJ’s childhood kiss on This Morning in 2018 during a side-splitting travel segment in Magaluf.

Pete has won numerous awards and is known for his performances at nightclubs and music festivals, he has also entered the lexicon thanks to the phrase ‘It’s all gone Pete Tong!’
The presenter revealed the island holds a special place in her heart as she brought viewers on a tour of the holiday destination, visiting the town’s famous strip to interview revellers about their love lives and chat to more low-key holidaymakers.
She was joined by then fiancé Ben Ofoedu, 52, with whom she split last year after 16 years together when she discovered he had been unfaithful.
In the clip they enjoyed a sun-soaked dinner as they opened up about their own memories of the beautiful isle.
Ben said to Vanessa: ‘It’s the most amazing thing that I had one of my first gigs abroad here, and you actually had your first kiss here.
Happy to discuss the memory further, she shared: ‘I did, I did have my first kiss here!
‘I was only 10-years-old, and years later I realised that that Peter Tong I was kissing, and who was kissing me, was actually THE Pete Tong!’
The blonde beauty left her other half Ben shocked by the admission and asked him whether he ever found love during his time on the island.
Yet, the Turn Around hitmaker confessed that his time on the Island never matched hers.
Following the confession, gobsmacked viewers took to X in their droves as they processed her hilarious memory.
