The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Leader of the Conservative Party will soon be Mary Elizabeth Truss.
She has held both roles in the past. Since 2021, she has held the position of Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Affairs, and since 2019,
she has also held the position of Minister for Women and Equalities. During the general election in 2010, Truss won the election to represent South West Norfolk.
She served in multiple Cabinet positions under the leadership of David Cameron, Theresa May, and Boris Johnson as Prime Minister.
Between the years 2012 and 2014, Truss held the position of Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Childcare and Education.
In 2014, David Cameron chose her to fill the position of Secretary of State for the Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs in the Cabinet of the United Kingdom.
During the referendum in 2016, Truss supported the Britain Stronger in Europe campaign, which advocated for the United Kingdom to remain a member of the European Union; however, he supported Brexit after the result was announced.
Who is Liz Truss’ Husband Hugh O’Leary?
In the year 2000, Truss tied the knot with Hugh O’Leary. Hugh O’Leary has a background in accounting. The couple is the parents of two little girls.
Ms Truss and Hugh O’Leary first became acquainted with one another at the 1997 Conservative Party conference and soon after went on a date.
The current Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has previously discussed the couple’s first date, during which she stated, “I invited him ice skating and he sprained his ankle.”
However, he was unfazed by the incident, and just three years after it took place, he and his partner tied the knot and moved in together in Greenwich, which is located in southeast London.
After completing his education at the London School of Economics in econometrics and mathematical economics, Mr O’Leary is now practising as a chartered accountant (LSE).
These days, he is the househusband of their two daughters, Frances and Liberty, and he works from home as a houseworker.
