Ulrika Jonsson tells Amy Nuttall her ‘7 strict conditions’ for ‘cheating’ husband Andrew Buchan won’t work

Ulrika Jonsson has given Amy Nuttall some advise following reports that the actress has set her husband Andrew Buchan seven severe rules to obey after he reportedly cheated on her with a co-star.

Broadchurch star Andrew, 44, was reported to have left his wife, 41, for Better co-star Leila Farzad, 39, when they were filming the BBC thriller series in February.

Amy, from Emmerdale, has apparently welcomed him back, but he must purportedly follow a tight list of rules, including weekly date evenings and full access to each other’s phones – also known as the 777 method.

However, writing in her column this week, 55-year-old Ulrika said: ‘You might as well slap a tag on his ankle,’ before explaining that cheating on her first husband, John Turnbull, was ‘the dumbest, most selfish’ decision she has ever made.

‘It was just an action of immaturity and greed,’ Ulrika – who shares son Cameron with her ex-husband – continued in the Sun.

Ulrika is sceptical of the 777 technique, which the publication claims comprises going on a date every week, going away for the night every seven weeks, and vacationing as a pair every seven months.

She continued: ‘I don’t think I’d be able to escape the feeling that in your situation, Amy, where someone has betrayed your trust, you’re effectively forcing someone to adhere to such a formal system.’

After the alleged cheating rumours hit the headlines, it was reported that Andrew and Leila were ‘living together’, much to the ‘shock’ of those around him.

Amy shares two children with Andrew, while Leila has a daughter with her husband.

Amy is best known for playing Chloe Atkinson on Emmerdale from 2000 until 2005 and then going on to play housemaid Ethel Parks in period drama Downton Abbey.
