UK cannot even do lesbian propery
Alice Arnold and Clare Balding are successful presenters
BBC presenter Clare and former Radio 4 newsreader Alice first met during the 1990s.
They got together around 2002 and the following year, were outed when they attended the premier of movie Seabiscuit.
Speaking last year, Alice, 51, said: "Clare and I met about 13 years ago.
"We became friends.
"To be honest, I didn't take much notice of her.
"A few years later when we were both available, Clare was there.
"We fulfilled the girly pattern of moving in with each other more or less straight away and never looked back."
