Shane Warne kids and family
As far as his personal life is concerned, Warne was married to Simone Callahan between 1995-2005. The couple had three children namely Brooke Warne, Summer Warne and Jackson Warne.
It was only last year that Warne had labeled being a single parent as “difficult but fun”. “I always made their lunches, walked them to school, took them to sport, etc. It was bloody hard – being a single parent is difficult, but fun too. I’m so glad they are 19, 21 and 23 now,” Warne was quoted as saying by The Herald Sun in 2021.
A couple of years after their separation, Warne and Callahan were reported to be getting back together but it wasn’t to be. Warne, who subsequently started dating English actress Elizabeth Hurley, even got engaged to her in 2011. However, the engagement was called-off in 2013.
