Holliman married Spandau Ballet bassist and singer Martin Kemp, and retired from steady performing after the birth of her daughter.
Holliman had met Kemp through mutual friend George Michael, and the pair married in St. Lucia in 1988.
They went on to have two children: daughter Harley Moon Kemp (born August 1989), and son Roman Kemp (born January 1993).
Holliman and daughter Harley had brief roles together in the Spice Girls video for "Mama".

After Holliman took time out from work to care for her husband through his illness with brain tumours, she was declared bankrupt in September 1996, and the family moved from Hampstead Heath to Muswell Hill to allow Kemp to recover.
Holliman then went to work managing Aegean, a business associated with music and entertainment production.
