Who is Liz Hayes’ partner, Ben Crane?
Liz Hayes has been with Ben Crane since the early 2000s, but not much is known about their relationship.
He’s a former sound recordist on 60 Minutes.
They are rarely seen in public together, nor does Liz talk about him in the media.
Speaking with Stellar Magazine, Liz shared that she values her privacy and finds the coverage about her love life, especially her past marriages, “soul-destroying.”
“You could go knock on everybody’s door and say, ‘Well, can I give you a bit of backstory?’ You can’t do that, so you just have to accept that that’s the deal,” she said.
“But frankly, it’s a bit soul-destroying to have seemingly the world telling you, ‘Yep, you’re a dud.’
“It’s hard. I defy anybody, and those people who write those stories, to sit there and hear and see that written about them.”
