Is Richard Hammond married?
Richard Hammond is married to Mindy Hammond, who has written many columns for the Daily Express over the years. He has since announced their separation in a candid tweet shared on X (January 9).
He wrote: “A little update from us; this Christmas we were together as a family and this year we will still be a family but just structured a bit differently. Our marriage is coming to end, but we’ve had an amazing 28 years together and two incredible daughters. We will always be in each other’s lives and are proud of the family we created.”
“We won’t be commenting further and sincerely hope that our privacy and that of our children will be respected at this time.”
He signed off: “With Love, Richard and Mindy.”
