Noel Edmonds believes that the souls of his dead parents follow him everywhere in the shape of two orbs.
The TV presenter's extraordinary revelation is central to the New Age phenomenon Cosmic Ordering of which he is a follower.
Cosmic Ordering involves writing a wish-list and asking the planets to carry it out.
The 59-year-old said that it was possible to see the orbs which float around him using digital cameras.
He said: 'Orbs are little bundles of positive energy and they think they can move between 500 and 1,000 miles per hour.
'They look like little round planets but they come in all shapes and sizes.'
He added: 'Conventional photography can't pick them up but digital cameras can.
'My belief is that these are something to do with some form of positive energy.
'And possibly because I miss my parents like mad, I like to think they are them.
'I've got loads of photographs of me at home with two orbs that visit me.
'The two that I have are about the size of melons. One sits on my arm and the other is usually in the back of the shot, sitting just over my right shoulder.'
Edmonds' girlfriend Liz Davies, 37, introduced the theory to him after they met two years ago.
Miss Davies worked as a make-up artist on his Channel 4 series Deal or No Deal.
Edmond's 18 year marriage to second wife Helen Soby - mother of his four daughters - ended three years earlier.
Edmonds is thought to be worth about £80 million.
He claimed he is no 'evangelist' but admitted: 'I don't pour scorn on any idea either.
'It's the same with the Cosmic Ordering.
'I've got a few nice little orders in at the moment.
'I've got one in for a friend who would like to meet the man of her dreams.
'And another for a couple who had some difficult financial issues recently.
'I'm confident they will come true.'
