He got to know her while she was working in his local pub, The Duke William in Ickham, where she met him in 2017 and later quit her job when they became close, according to reports at the time. Their relationship seemed to be moving quickly as Paul bought a £1million home in Kent to share with Summer. But by 2021, they’d split when Summer allegedly refused to sign an NDA prohibiting her from talking about her time with Paul with anybody else. She later branded the entire relationship “disastrous”.</p> <h2>Being part of a ‘homophobic’ joke on Twitter after an alleged feud with Noel Fielding</h2> <div class="embed_container" id="a9a1c2c99766a548b8d5376bcfd029ec"> <div class="lazy-embed lazy-embed--ssr embed-twitter-com" style="" data-url="https://twitter.com/noelfielding11/status/905042244390051840"></p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr">This should put to rest any rumours that me and blue eyes <a href="https://twitter.com/PaulHollywood?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PaulHollywood</a> don't get on 🙂 ha ha ha x <a href="https://t.co/BAfilTUnOf">pic.twitter.com/BAfilTUnOf</a></p> <p>— noel fielding (@noelfielding11) <a href="https://twitter.com/noelfielding11/status/905042244390051840?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 5, 2017</a></p></blockquote></div> </div> <p>When there were rumours of a feud between Noel and Paul Hollywood in 2017 Noel took to Twitter to squash the claims but sparked heavy criticism for alleged homophobia. “This should put to rest any rumours that me and blue eyes @PaulHollywood don’t get on 🙂 ha ha ha x,” he wrote alongside a photo of him bending over in front of Paul.</p> <div>“mmmmmmmmmmmmmm homophobia,” one person replied. “I like you @noelfielding11, but you’ve got some growing up to do.
