Personal Life
In the 1980s, Davies lived with and was engaged to Neil Adams, who had won numerous Olympic and World Championship medals in judo, until he suddenly left her to marry a hairdresser.
Davies then married physical training instructor John Crisp in West Sussex in 1987; they were divorced in 1991.
In 1992, she met athlete Derek Redmond at the Barcelona Olympics. In 1994 they were married in Northampton, and had two children together: Elliott Anthony (born 1993, Northampton) and Grace Elizabeth (born 1998, Gloucestershire). They were divorced in 2000.
Davies's third marriage was to British Airways pilot Tony Kingston. They were married in 2002 in Gloucestershire. In autumn 2006, she announced that she was three months pregnant after IVF treatment, having been trying for a baby for four years and suffering two miscarriages. During a Sport Relief event in Devon, she said: "We’re very optimistic and happy but we're cautious, too, because of what we have been through. Giving birth at 43 doesn’t worry me. I'm in better shape than most women 15 years younger. So many women go through this as they leave it later to have babies." Davies gave birth to her third child and second son, Finley John Kingston-Davies, on 30 January 2007. She split up with Kingston after seven years of marriage. Davies currently lives in the Grade II listed Berryfield House in the Wiltshire town of Bradford on Avon.
