UK House Of Common Speaker's Wife Admits She Is A 'Terrible Wife' After Accusations She Had An Affair With His Cousin

The wife of House of Commons Speaker John Bercow has admitted she is a "terrible wife" after being accused of having an affair with her husband's cousin who she said left her "fucking heartbroken". Sally Bercow said she and Alan Bercow "got on like a house on fire" but refused to comment on claims she had a relationship with him, saying simply that he was a "great friend and a great support".

The affair is said to have begun at the start of the general election campaign. While the Speaker campaigned in his Buckingham constituency, his 57-year-old cousin moved into a £1.2 million mews house in Battersea that he and Mrs Bercow jointly owned. On Sunday Mrs Bercow was at the address alone with her three children.
