Marriage and twins

Hannah and Anton reportedly met at a golf club in 2011 and dated for six years before they wed. In November 2016, Anton posted an adorable picture announcing that they were expecting twins on Instagram.

Apart from a couple of Instagram posts, the couple is very private and isn't often spotted in the public eye. However, fans were given a glimpse into their home and family life during an episode of This Morning in May 2019.

Anton spoke exclusively to HELLO! about how he and Hannah avoid gender stereotyping when raising their twins

Back in 2021, Anton and his family also joined HELLO! for an exclusive photoshoot and chat about their trip to LaplandUK, as well as his time on Strictly Come Dancing. Revealing how he and his wife Hannah have tried to avoid gender stereotyping when raising their twins, Anton replied:

"We've told them, 'You can do what you like, wear what you like,' but George likes Spiderman and Hot Wheels, and Henrietta likes butterflies and unicorns. He crashes around more than she does. But there was no encouragement in either direction."
