Sarah Beeny discusses her marriage
After previously admitting her marriage to husband Graham Swift was “hanging on by fingernails” while she battled breast cancer, Sarah Beeny has shared a relationship update. The 51-year-old appeared on Tuesday’s instalment of Lorraine to speak about her new book The Simple Life: How I Found Home and clarified the comments she earlier made regarding her marriage.
She explained: “I did a podcast with someone and I told a funny joke, which I thought was a funny joke about marriage.” The property expert insisted that her “hanging on by fingernails” remark was a joke and she didn’t mean anything by it.
However, she did take the time to admit that relationships aren’t easy but she’s fortunate to have a supportive family by her side. She continued: “I’m not going to say it’s easy, because obviously it isn’t easy, but I think I’m very lucky that I’ve got a husband and kids who are so supportive.”
The television personality revealed she had been diagnosed with breast cancer in August 2022 and was seeking treatment for the life-altering illness. She underwent radiotherapy and chemotherapy, as well as a mastectomy to battle the cancer cells inside her body.
Sarah shared the great news that she was cancer-free and given the all-clear in April this year.

In October, the mum-of-four opened up about her cancer battle and said she was “particularly horrible” while she endured treatment, leading to a strain on her relationship with Graham.
Speaking at the time on The Mid-Point podcast with host Gabby Logan, she divulged: “We’re hanging on in there by our fingernails. I mean, it’s not easy is it? Graham always said, ‘the day we have to work on our marriage, I’m going to leave’. And I was like, ‘really?’ But I think he has had to work at it to be honest.
“I was particularly horrible, because I have been a bit horrible in the last couple of years to be honest at times.”
The couple met when she was 18 after the pair were set up on a blind date by pals, they went on to tie the knot in September 2002. The two are parents to four sons, Billy, 19, Charlie, 17, Rafferty, 15, and 13-year-old Laurie.
