Meet Hugh Hanley, Michelle Heaton’s husband
Michelle Heaton is currently married to her husband Hugh Hanley. They are believed to have met after Michelle’s marriage to ex-husband Andy Scott-Lee ended in June 2008 after getting married in October 2006. The couple dated and eventually got married on 19 July 2010.
In July 2022, Michelle paid tribute to her husband on their 12th wedding anniversary. She wrote, “12 years ago today, we said I do on that beach.. on my birthday.”
She added, “12 years ago, we promised to be there for each other for better or worse, in sickness and in health, through thick and thin! What we didn’t know was what was ahead. The addictions I put you through, the life-changing surgeries I went through, the ups and downs of being married to someone as crazy as me 🤪 you’ve been through more than 100 men!”
Michelle concluded, “I thank God every day for you. Not only do I think you are the perfect fit.. 😍 but you are my best friend. My soul mate… I love you more than life itself… Happy anniversary xx.”
Hugh has also been open about his wife’s struggles with alcoholism. In an interview with Lorraine, he explained, “The last three or four years have been really difficult knowing Michelle was there but the addiction has torn her apart.”
“There were times when I could have walked away, it would have been easier,” Hugh added. “There is no escaping it, life with an addict is incredibly difficult. We get second chances.”
The couple talked to ALRIGHT! where they talked about how they coped when Michelle was having a difficult time. Hugh said their marriage has now improved ‘a lot’, adding that it is now much more fun, ‘easy and stress-free’. Michelle claimed that things have improved since then as she believes that fun is the key to a successful marriage, but that has not been the case over the past few years.
“I think, in my mind, fun is the answer to marriage, and my idea of fun hasn’t been fun for the past few years,” says Michelle. “So Hugh is absolutely thrilled that he gets to go to bed early with me, because now I want to go to bed early! There was a part of me that used to dread going to bed because I was afraid I wouldn’t wake up, but that’s not the case anymore.”
She said he was “full of resentment” at first so it was difficult because he was having a tough time. But Hugh said he tried to stay strong because he knew Michelle wasn’t herself.
“We’ve been together for 14 years, so I know who Michelle is and this isn’t her. I just think it’s a wish and a hope to get back to my wife,” Hugh said.
Hugh Hanley and Michelle Heaton Children
The married couple have two children. Michelle and Hugh welcomed daughter Faith Hanley on January 12, 2012. Faith later had a younger brother named Aaron Jay Hanley on February 28, 2014. In September 2022, Michelle posted on her IG, “And they’re gone. Year 6 and year 4. So proud of my kids, so happy they’re turning into strong, confident little adults. And now mommy can start cleaning up the mess at home the last 6 weeks.”
Hugh has made it clear that she has always been there in their two children’s lives, even through the tough times, despite Michelle previously claiming that when she was struggling he felt like a single dad. But Hugh now says it’s the opposite, adding: “I think it’s probably reversed – Michelle does more than me. She’s a super mum. AJ’s personality has improved a lot because he likes to joke around with his mum now.”
Michelle said her daughter, Faith, supported her in everything she had achieved and even pulled her out of the supermarket liquor aisle. She described her daughter as her “biggest cheerleader” and “greatest bodyguard”.
