Boris Johnson, the former British prime minister, appointed Priti Patel as home secretary in July 2019. But the question everyone wants to know is: Is the Conservative politician still married to her husband, Alex Sawyer?
Is Alex Sawyer Still Married to Priti Patel?
Alex Sawyer and his politician wife, Priti Patel love is still going stronger after 18 years of marriage. The couple is still married and has a son named Freddie Sawyer.
Alex Sawyer, a marketing strategist, became Ms. Patel’s husband in 2004. The two of them worked in public relations together and eventually became acquainted.
Mr. Sawyer is a member of the Conservative Party and serves as Cabinet Member for Communities on the council of the London Borough of Bexley. In addition, Mr. Sawyer is employed by the NASDAQ stock market in the United States.
From February 2014 to August 2017, he also served as her office manager on a part-time basis.
After receiving feedback that she was hypocritical for employing her husband and paying him £25,000 despite the fact that he was also working two other jobs, Ms. Patel decided to terminate their working relationship.
According to the register of MPs’ interests, Mr. Sawyer ceased working for his wife following the General Election in June 2017, which took place in the United Kingdom.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority has created a rule that prevented parliamentarians from working for “affiliated” parties in any capacity.
