Jason Cundy has dated –
- Lizzie Cundy – He first met socialite, television personality, model, radio host, and showbiz reporter Lizzie Cundy in the year 1990. When they met, Lizzie was a budding model and Jason was playing regularly for the English professional football club Chelsea. The duo eventually started dating and then tied the knot in 1994. They welcomed their first child together, a son, in 1996. The next year in February, Jason was diagnosed with testicular cancer and Lizzie helped him get back to health. They were blessed with their 2nd son in 2000. Jason’s cancer resurfaced in 2003 and he underwent life-saving radiotherapy, which made him infertile. After around 3 months, they renewed their wedding vows in a Bollywood-themed ceremony held at the Taj Hotel in London. However, after some years, he met opera singer Hannah Pedley on a train while returning from Cheltenham races in 2010 and they reportedly had an affair, which Lizzie eventually found out about after she saw a suggestive text on his mobile from Hannah. Following the events, she moved out of their family home in October 2010 and he tried to win her back. Initially, she yielded but then found that he was still secretly seeing Hannah. The marriage subsequently ended in divorce in 2012.
- Hannah Pedley – After being romantically involved for some years, he married Hannah Pedley in June 2015. The couple had started their romance while Jasdon was still married to Lizzie Cundy. They have a son together who was reportedly born using the sperm that Jason had frozen when he was first diagnosed with testicular cancer 18 years earlier.
