Luxmy Gopal is no new face if you’re a fan of BBC morning shows. The talented presenter regularly fills in for other presenters, and this time she’s here to replace Sally Nugent on the iconic BBC Breakfast show.
But today we are not discussing Luxmy’s on-screen achievements. Instead, let’s learn about her spouse and parents as this short biography continues.
Does Luxmy Gopal have a spouse?
It has not been confirmed, but Luxmy Gopal is said to have a partner named Martyn Williams. Rumors about the couple started after they were often spotted together, attending many public and private events together.
The last time we saw them together was when the couple attended a friend’s wedding in 2019.
Luxmy even took to her IG at the time to upload a few posts featuring her alleged partner. In one post titled, “Posing like you own the place,” the two were seen wrapped up in each other’s arms; this even caught the attention of Welsh journalist Owain Wyn Evans when he commented with a love eyes emoji.
Additionally, another post captured Martyn happily wrapping his arms around Luxmy with the caption: “You know you’re old when the friend you never thought would grow up is all grown up (or maybe!) and married.”
Who are Luxmy Gopal’s parents?
Born to Indian parents, Luxmy Gopal has made quite a name for herself on Britain’s biggest broadcaster. She first joined the BBC as an investigative journalist in 2011, and now hosts BBC Breakfast. However, this isn’t her first time on the morning show. Back in 2016, she also hosted the popular weekend show from 6 to 9 for quite a while.
Besides his parents, this talented journalist also has his sister to thank for all her encouragement.
Also, we can’t forget her adorable cat, who is not just her pet. “Cosmo the Maine Coon” is Luxmy’s son. He has his own IG @mainecosmo with over 300 followers and 294 posts.
But while Luxmy may be a cat lover, she also loves dogs. She often volunteers as a dog sitter for her family’s German Shephards.
