Carol Vorderman has said she has no desire to settle down and feels content living life on her own terms. At 65, she says she enjoys her independence and does not feel the need for a traditional long-term relationship.

Vorderman has previously revealed that she has five “special friends” with whom she has ongoing relationships. She has made clear that she does not do one-night stands and prefers open, honest arrangements that suit everyone involved. All of her partners are single, and she says the setup works well for her.
She has explained that jealousy is not an issue for her. If any of her partners were to meet someone else and move on, she says she would be happy for them. For her, respect, honesty, and enjoyment matter more than exclusivity or commitment.

Vorderman also challenged the idea that women need a man to feel fulfilled. She said women can travel, enjoy life, and be happy on their own. In her view, choosing independence is not anti-men but a positive statement about women’s freedom.
She says her main goal in life is happiness, not being in love. At this stage, she values the ability to choose what brings her joy and to live freely, without pressure to follow traditional expectations.
