price and Hayler’s tumultuous relationship was frequently documented in the media. They married in January 2013 at the Sandals Royal Bahamian luxury resort in the Bahamas, after first meeting in 2012 and becoming engaged on Christmas day of that year. Their marriage was marked by multiple allegations of infidelity. Price publicly forgave Hayler after discovering affairs with Jane Pountney and another friend, stating in 2017, “He’s proved himself…I have actually said to him, ‘I now forgive you, I do forget’, because I got to a point where I don’t have to worry about him.I trust him.” He later admitted to an affair with their nanny in 2017, initially denying it despite Price’s confrontation. The couple renewed their wedding vows twice, in 2015 and 2017, but ultimately separated in 2018.
Divorce proceedings were initiated in May 2018, with the split finalized in 2021 after pandemic-related delays. Hayler stated at the time he would not seek financial support from Price.
The Metropolitan Police investigation began following reports of alleged offenses and has culminated in these charges. Further details are expected to emerge during the court proceedings.
