Who is Louis Theroux's partner Nancy and when did they get married?

Louis Theroux has made a name for himself by showcasing a whole world of oddities and more to the general public – from America’s Most Hated Family to giving us the first glimpse of the Tiger King himself, Joe Exotic.

And his current series, Life On The Edge, continues on BBC Two tonight.

But what about the man himself – what do we know about Louis Theroux’s personal life?

Is the documentarian married and does he have any children?

Who is Louis Theroux’s wife, Nancy Strang?

Louis Theroux is married to television producer Nancy Strang.

Strang has a successful 20 year-long career in television, having worked on several award-winning productions, including Timewatch and Imagine.

Back in 2019, she co-founded the production company Mindhouse Productions alongside husband Theroux, where she also works as the director of development.

Speaking to Who Magazine, Theroux opened up about the dynamic with his wife.

He said: ‘Nancy thinks that (I will retire soon), and I don’t know that I have the heart to tell her that I don’t see it on the horizon.’

When did they get married?

They got married in 2012, after nearly 10 years of dating.

Theroux met Strang back in 2002 whilst they were both working at the BBC, and eventually tied the knot a decade later in 2012.

Speaking to Clara Amfo on her This City podcast, Theroux says how he began spotting Strang ‘around London’ and being stunned by her beauty.

‘She was sort of fashionable, but sort of not aggressively stylish. People didn’t really say “hipster” in those days, but she had a touch of hipster,’ he told Amfo.

The pair first spoke at an office Christmas party, and ‘went from there,’ he said.

Do they have children?

Theroux and Strang have three children together – sons Albert, Frederick, and Walter.

Before his marriage to Strang, Theroux was married to writer Susanna Kleeman for three years from 1998 to 2001.

Louis Theroux: Life on the Edge continues tonight at 9pm on BBC Two.
