Comedian Alex Brooker shot to fame after showcasing his comedy skills on Channel 4's The Last Leg.
Originally, the show ran alongside the 2012 summer Paralympics, but it was such a hit that it went on to become a weekly show with Alex Brooker acting as co-host and welcoming celebrity guests to discuss an array of topics.
Since then, Brooker has had even more success, presenting shows including The Jump and The Superhumans Show.
Outside of his comedy career, Alex has also been vocal about his life with a disability, as he was born with hand and arm deformities and a twisted right leg that had to be amputated when he was a child.
Last year, he opened up about how much his disability impacts who he is in a documentary for BBC Two titled Alex Brooker: Disability and Me.
But although the presenter is open about many aspects of his life, he's much more private when it comes to his family.
Here's everything we know about Alex's family life.
Who is Alex Brooker's wife?
Alex Brooker's wife is Lynsey Brooker.
Lynsey is an accountant and the couple dated for a few years before getting married in 2014.
Alex and Lynsey have kept their relationship under wraps, but she did appear with him on a documentary about body image in 2013 and they also starred on an episode of All Star Mr & Mrs together.
Alex has previously opened up about how he didn't tell Lynsey about his disability at first.
He told Disability Horizons: "Looking back, that was madness because, inevitably, if things went the way I wanted it to, I wouldn’t be able to hide it forever."
Recalling the first time he took his prosthetic leg off in front of Lynsey, he said: "I was also nervous about taking my leg off in front of Lynsey and in previous relationships. Then the first time I did she didn’t say anything and we never talked about it. The concern was more in my head than hers."
Does Alex Brooker have children?
Alex Brooker has two children with Lynsey.
The couple welcomed their first child together in 2017, daughter Daphne.
They also have a second daughter who arrived not long after their first child, but they've not revealed her name.
Like his marriage, Alex keeps his children's lives fairly quiet, but he does often share some hilarious pictures on Instagram about what life is like as a dad, including his daughters drawing on his face and painting each others' nails.
Previously, Alex has spoken about how he was "terrified" that his children would inherit his disability.
He told What's On TV: "Even though my disability is not genetic I was terrified every time we went for baby scans."
Alex Brooker's 'mortifying affair'
Alex is still married to his wife, but in 2019 things turned rocky for the couple after it was alleged that he'd had an affair.
A source told the Mirror that Alex had a fling with a beautician while filming for his talk show in London.
They said: “Last year was a really tough year for Alex and Lynsey. He was filming in London and she was at home up north. It was a real strain on the marriage.
“He met this other woman while filming in London for The Last Leg. They had a real connection and became really friendly.
“Things turned romantic in July and this lasted for about a month, before she is believed to have ended things in August.”
Despite their issues, the couple worked it out.
The source added: “Lynsey is aware of it and she and Alex are trying to get their marriage back on track. They want to make a go of it.
“He’s absolutely mortified this happened because he’s a dad and he does love Lynsey deeply. He regrets it and wants to move forward.”
