The couple have three children together, ages 17, 12 and 6. Despite his public personality, Mark is known to be a very private person he once said saying, \u201cI know mine The family is very proud of me, but I don\u2019t see what I do as anything special. I\u2019ve got a great career and it\u2019s very interesting, but I don\u2019t go for any of that popular nonsense. I\u2019d much rather have a pint at The Railway any day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The tragic loss of a private family<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarah\u2019s death was a blow to the Chapman family.
