Relationship With Wife

The author seems to have no intention of hiding his relationship status. He can be seen with his wife in plenty of events and further, he has mentioned the name of his wife in lots of interviews.

In an interview published by Ibtimes on 12th September 2015, he labeled himself to be lucky to have a wife who has helped him to become a fantastic person despite having insane work and hectic working hours on the job. He said:

“Having known each other as long as we have has insulated me from what this job can do to you. She’s by far the most accomplished person in our household. Everything that I am as a human being has been constituted by that relationship. I often think about the stress of the job and that the crazy psychological effects of being on television would easily drive a person insane, or make them into a monster, in the absence of having an amazing relationship. I’m lucky.”

Well, looking at their strong bond it's quite sure that the couple is a match made in heaven. They share a healthy relationship like in this picture below where they are enjoying quality time together.
