The former Savage Garden singer married Richard Cullen three times, first in 2005 and then entered into a civil partnership with him the following year in the UK, and once again in California in 2013.

But despite this, the star has admitted to feeling nervous about displaying affection in public.

The 44-year-old responded to a tweet from US comedian Riley Silverman, who asked: “If you’re an out queer person in a ‘liberal bubble’ city, RT this if you’ve felt uneasy or threatened just for minor PDA with your partner”.

Hayes responded with: “I’m out, I’m married, I’m a ‘celebrity’ and I still feel unsafe holding hands in many public situations. That’s a reality.”
