November 30th 2024.
It's that time of the week again - Saturday night, when we all gather around the TV for some good old-fashioned entertainment. And what better way to kick off the weekend than with the hilarious Michael McIntyre hosting his hit game show, The Wheel? Since its debut in 2020, the show has become a favorite among viewers, delivering not only laughs but also huge prizes for its lucky contestants. And with recent celebrity guests such as Clare Balding, Oti Mabuse, Dermot O'Leary, and Jonathan Ross, it's no wonder The Wheel has become a staple in our Saturday night routine.
But Michael McIntyre is more than just a game show host - he's also a successful comedian and currently on a sold-out tour. While we all know and love him for his stand-up routines, have you ever wondered about the man behind the comedy? Well, let's take a dive into his personal life and get to know him a little better.
First and foremost, let's talk about the woman who stole Michael's heart - his wife, Kitty. The two have been happily married for over 20 years, tying the knot in 2003. And although she may not be in the spotlight like her famous husband, Kitty certainly has her own claim to fame as the daughter of actor Simon Ward and sister of actress Sophie Ward. Unfortunately, Simon passed away in 2012, but Michael has fond memories of him and even considered him a close friend.
But Kitty is not just a famous daughter and sister - she also has her own career as an aromatherapist in London. Unlike her husband, she prefers to keep a low profile, but that doesn't stop Michael from using her antics as material for his stand-up routines. One of his most famous gags is about Kitty struggling to put on her tights, and let's just say it's a relatable struggle for many of us.
Now, let's talk about Michael and Kitty's two sons, Lucas and Oscar. They may be young, but they've already made multiple appearances in their dad's performances. In one of his sketches, Michael jokes about the struggles of putting his sons to bed, saying that he loves them the most when they're unconscious but still breathing. And in another bit, he pokes fun at his son's limited vocabulary, wondering if his next word will be "passport" and hinting at the possibility of a future escape attempt.
But where does the McIntyre family call home? As of 2023, they reside in Hampstead, London, but they also have a house in Wiltshire. And in 2020, Michael treated his family to a new home in the capital, spending a whopping £10 million on an eight-bedroom property complete with a swimming pool, cinema, and even a gym and spa for his post-workout relaxation.
So there you have it - a glimpse into the private life of the beloved Michael McIntyre. And if you can't get enough of him, don't worry, because The Wheel continues tonight at 8.15pm on BBC One.
