Is Peter Bone married?

Peter Bone married Jeanette Sweeney in 1981 and they had two sons and a daughter together, but in 2018 he left her for a physio Helen Harrison. Peter and Jeanette (Jenny), are divorced. The Sun reported in 2018  that “Tory MP Peter Bone, famous for mentioning wife Jenny in Parliament, has left her for a married physio 20 years his junior. Mr Bone, 65, had been entertaining 45-year-old Helen Harrison at his luxury taxpayer-funded £1.5m apartment in Westminster at least twice this week.”

Mr Bone later said in a statement: “My wife and I have been living apart for more than two years, during which time I have formed a relationship with Helen Harrison."

“Neither Helen nor I intend to make any further comment about this matter.”
