“We’re very lucky”: Zoe Foster Blake on her marriage to Hamish
Zoe Foster Blake has opened up about her marriage to Hamish Blake, giving a rare insight into the relationship of one of the country’s biggest power couples.
Skincare mogul and author Zoe Foster Blake married Aussie comedian Hamish Blake back in 2012. The couple, who are now parents to two beautiful children, have become a dynamic duo in their own right.
Although their careers and business ventures exist very much in the public eye, fans still hold onto the hope that they may get a glimpse into their private lives.
Sitting down with Shameless Media’s Michelle Andrews and Zara McDonald for an episode of their podcast, Zoe spoke candidly about her husband Hamish.
She revealed that her husband is her “best business adviser”.
“He’s amazing – you guys know – he’s incredibly experienced. He’s been in the media for such a long time, he’s ten years ahead of me in terms of that.”
Zoe, who has tried her hand at a number of industries, namely beauty and publishing, said she often asks Hamish for help when she’s needs to workshop new ideas and projects.
“He’s really considered, he’s thoughtful, he’s generous, he’s beautiful. I’m so lucky to have him in my corner. Even like a new book idea, I’ll thrash it through with him,” she told Shameless.
“He doesn’t piss in my pocket, we’re very honest with each other.
And despite their hectic schedules, the doting parents always make time for their children, Sonny and Rudy.
Zoe told the podcast hosts that the husband and wife duo look over each other’s schedules when planning their next career moves. If Hamish is filming, she takes her “foot off work at that time.”
“I’ll know that he’s working 14 hour days, so I’ll be around for the kids.”
But if Zoe has something going on, then she’ll make sure to lock it in when he husband’s schedule isn’t so “full on”.
“We have big meaty chats about career, he’s my best business adviser.”
But everyone knows that no relationship is perfect all the time, but Zoe believes that she and her husband are extremely lucky.
“It doesn’t mean that we don’t have a life and real life struggles and stresses like everyone in the whole wide world.
“But we’re so privileged, so lucky! Healthy children, happy life, best country in the world … like, c’mon? we’re very lucky.”
