Relationship Status: Single?
When it comes to her personal life, Lisa Aziz prefers to keep the details of her relationships private. She has, however, been unable to stop herself from hiding information about her children.
In an interview with Dailymail on February 24, 2010, about her leave from ITV for personal reasons, she revealed that she has two children named Jacob and Leah.
She has settled in as a single mother with two children. Jacob is 20 years old, and Leah is 24 years old. Despite revealing the existence of her children, she has not revealed pictures of her young children.
Furthermore, there is no evidence about her married life, so the truth will remain unknown until the news anchor makes another revelation.
