Personal life: Married, Wife, Family

The 77 years old retired Australian journalist's personal life seems barren as he has no any recorded date with anyone. Maybe he kept his career life in high priority than his personal life so that his personal matters seems overshadowed. 

He has not revealed much about him; either he has a wife or a girlfriend. He is not married, so there were no any rumors about divorce and children as well. So he is still unmarried or single, so sometimes people relate him as a gay. But he never admired about the rumors and always ignored the news.

Once he has some stories about the girlfriend, and he was romantically dating with someone. But he never opened about her and also didn’t disclose about his relation. But we hope that he will begin one day why he is still single, and also answered about the being single.
