Read to find out what Graham Norton's current relationship status is!
Graham Norton is an Irish comedian, actor, and television presenter who is widely known for hosting The Graham Norton Show, a talk show featuring celebrity interviews, musical performances, and comedy sketches. With his witty sense of humor and affable personality, Norton has become one of the most beloved presenters in the United Kingdom.
That being said, Norton is also very secretive about his love life. What do we know about his current relationship status?
Previous relationships
Norton is a private individual when it comes to his personal life, and he has not been very vocal about his past relationships. However, it is known that he dated Trevor Patterson, an Irish software designer, for two years before they broke up in 2013. He also had a brief relationship with the music marketing consultant Andrew Smith.
Norton has also been linked to a number of other men over the years, but he has never confirmed any of these rumors. In an interview with The Guardian in 2017, Norton stated that he prefers to keep his personal life out of the public eye, as he believes that his relationships are nobody else's business.
Despite his reluctance to discuss his romantic history, Norton is open about his sexuality and has been an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights for many years. He has used his platform to support numerous charities and organizations that work to promote equality and acceptance for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
The effects of fame
In interviews, Norton spoke candidly about how his fame has affected his personal relationships. He has mentioned that his high-profile status has made it difficult for him to maintain romantic relationships, as his partners often feel overshadowed by his success.
Norton has revealed that his boyfriends in the past have loathed attending events with him, as they felt they hadn't 'earned it for themselves.' He has explained that the pressure and attention that come with being in the public eye can be overwhelming, and it takes a certain kind of person to be able to handle it.
Speaking about being single, Norton said:
There’s a weird thing that happens in your life that the older you get the less right you have to be picky, but the pickier you become. And your dating pool becomes smaller and smaller — but that’s because you want it to be.
He added:
When you’re young it’s the opposite — you know you could be picky, but you’re not. So I think that’s what probably changed things. And, you know, I prefer to be unhappy alone. That’s the bottom line. And I’m not even unhappy."
Cemented relation
Norton has always been private about his personal life, but rumors have circulated that he tied the knot with his current partner in a quiet ceremony in Corke, with about 120 guests in attendance.
Although the comedian hasn't confirmed any details, it's been said that Lulu performed at the wedding. This is not the first time that Norton has been linked to a romantic partner, as it was reported in 2018 that he was secretly dating a crew member of The Graham Norton Show.
However, Norton has previously spoken about how his high-profile status has made it challenging to maintain relationships, and he values his privacy when it comes to his personal life. Despite this, Norton remains a popular figure in the entertainment industry, and his loyal fans continue to support him in all of his endeavors.
