Anton Du Beke is best known as a dancer and judge on Strictly Come Dancing – but what’s his personal life like with his wife and children?
Tonight (Monday March 18) he’s back on the box with Strictly pal Giovanni Pernice for Anton & Giovanni’s Adventures in Spain.
But have you ever wondered what Anton’s home life is like?
Anton Du Beke wife
Anton, now 57, met his wife Hannah Summers in 2011.
He’s previously revealed they first encountered one another at a dinner party – and Anton was blown away. So much so, Anton was desperate to grab a chance to speak to her alone, and saw his opportunity as she popped to the loo.
He recalled in 2021: “I knew almost immediately that I loved her.”
And it seems her let her know, too. Anton added a couple of years ago: “She came out [of the toilet], she looked at me and went ‘Have you been waiting outside the ladies’ for me?’ And I went: ‘Yes, it’s because I love you.'”
No messing about!

The couple became parents when Anton was 50, following reported difficulties becoming pregnant. Due to IVF, Anton and Hannah have since become a father and mother to twins George and Henrietta.
The same year their kids were born – 2017 – Anton and Hannah also got married.
An overjoyed Anton has previously reflected: “We had children when I was 50 and it has been the best thing that ever happened in my life.
We did IVF and had the greatest fortune as we became pregnant – we thank our lucky stars.
“We decided to have children and we went down the IVF route. We did it and had the greatest fortune as we became pregnant – we thank our lucky stars. It is the most incredible thing in the world and has been brilliant.”
Meanwhile, Anton also praised Hannah as an “excellent” mother.
Anton previously said while appearing on the Parenting Hell podcast: “
