Sir Cliff Richard, at 83 years old, is not married and does not have a wife. Despite decades of public interest and speculation surrounding his personal life, Cliff has chosen to remain unmarried and childless, focusing instead on his music, his Christian faith, and a close-knit circle of friends and companions.
Throughout the years, Cliff has addressed rumors with honesty and grace. He once said, “I’ve had girlfriends. I’ve had crushes. But I’ve never felt the need to marry.” His most notable relationship was with former tennis star Sue Barker, and he has also spoken fondly of Jackie Irving, an actress he once considered marrying. However, those relationships did not lead to marriage.
In his 2018 autobiography, “My Life, My Way,” Cliff shared that he is perfectly content living a private, peaceful life—often between his homes in Barbados and the United Kingdom. While he enjoys companionship and the love of friends and fans, he has made it clear that he has never had a wife and continues to live independently.
So, any reports or claims stating that Cliff Richard now lives with a “new wife” are unfounded. He remains a cherished solo figure—a man who has lived life on his own terms, and whose story continues to inspire admiration and curiosity.
