Five years after their engagement, former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has married her long-term partner Clarke Gayford. The top-secret ceremony took place under high security in the popular Hawke’s Bay wine region on the North Island, New Zealand media reported.
Ardern wore a long white halter dress and a bridal veil, Gayford wore a black suit and tie. According to the New Zealand Herald newspaper, only family members, friends and some politicians were invited.
Something that takes a long time …
The couple announced their engagement in May 2019, a year after their daughter Neve was born. The wedding was planned for January 2022, but due to the strict requirements during the corona pandemic, the wedding had to be postponed indefinitely. “That’s life,” Ardern said at the time. TV presenter Gayford (46) and Ardern (43) are said to have met at an official event in Auckland in 2012. But they didn’t become a couple until some time later.
Jacinda Ardern was Prime Minister of the Pacific state from 2017 until her surprising resignation at the beginning of 2023. She said at the time that she didn’t have the strength to carry on. When she took office, she was the youngest head of government in the world at the time. Because of her empathetic nature, the politician had also made a name for herself internationally. Her handling of the Christchurch attacks in 2019 in particular brought her a lot of recognition.
