Similarly, one of the BBC insiders revealed:
“Hazel is really friendly and gets on great with everyone but she keeps her personal life to herself.”
Moreover, other insiders said:
“She only talks to close friends about that sort of thing so even people who work with her didn’t know about the wedding until after it happened. She seems really happy and all her colleagues are delighted for her.”
Hazel feels that this was the right time for her to get married. Before even if she was committed, she did not feel right to exchange vows and get hitched spiritually as well as legally.
Adding:
“Hazel is dedicated to work which can make relationships difficult, but she has been with her partner for quite a while and they just decided it was the right time to get hitched.”
Similarly, the first female sports presenters of Scotland are on the verge of giving birth to a child in the spring of 2009. And said:
“My husband and I have a new arrival coming in the spring – which is going to be a drain on my own profits.”
In one of the interviews on July 13, 2014, she revealed much about her personal life and said:
“look at my daughter Gina.”
Whereas, she opened up about her husband’s romantic things and said:
“buy me a padlock. For a shed.”
She also revealed on their perfect Sunday saying:
“a family swim, then going out for some spaghetti bolognese and a walk in the park.”
She is a career-oriented woman and she does not like limiting herself only as a wife and mother.
