Sarah Beeny on missing her son’s event at CarFest
Sarah Beeny has opened up about the devastating effect that her breast cancer battle has had on her marriage to husband Graham Swift.
The 51-year-old BBC and Channel 4 presenter admitted the pair have only stayed together for the sake of their four children.
Opening up about their relationship on Gabby Logan’s podcast The Midpoint, the property expert admitted: “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 at 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.”

The broadcaster revealed she’s been “horrible” the last couple of years while she battled cancer, but the pair were willing to stay together for their family.
She continued: “He said, ‘You wanna be happy or unhappy, because either way we’re still going to live together’, so I was like, ‘OK we’ll do happy then, shall we?’ he was like, ‘What a good idea’.”
Sarah said Graham asked her to be nicer and she obliged for the greater good.
The television personality went to her elder brother Diccon for marital advice and he convinced her to keep going with her marriage.

She announced she was battling breast cancer in August last year.
Sarah lost her mum Ann to the same disease at the age of 39, when she was a mere 10 years of age.
However, after a tough battle herself, Sarah came out fighting and revealed she got the all-clear in April this year.
Sarah and Graham met when she was 18 after the pair were set up on a blind date by pals.
The couple are parents to children Billy, 19, Charlie, 17, Rafferty, 15, and 13-year-old Laurie.
The family moved to Somerset in 2018 and adjusted to living on a 220-acre sheep farm, which featured on her 2020 Channel 4 documentary New Life In The Country.
