Do Matt Hancocks wife Martha and Gina Coladangelo know each other?
MATT Hancock was caught snogging his close aide Gina Coladangelo despite the pandemic - and being married to wife Martha for 15 years. The beginnings of the high-profile love triangle are said to go back 20 years. Here is what we know about the trio. Matt Hancock, his wife Martha and newly exposed mistress Gina Coldangelo all attended Oxford University more than 20 years ago. Like Hancock, Gina studied philosophy, politics and economics (PPE) at Oxfords Exeter College between 1995 and 1998. Friends say the future Health Secretary, now 42, and glamorous young Gina were inseparable while working together on the universitys student radio station Oxygen FM. Gina took on the role of news reporter while Hancock was on sport. But while studying, another young student caught Hancock's eye - his future wife and osteopath Martha, now 44. The pair married in 2006  the same year Gina tied the knot with property lawyer Glynn Gibb. However the couple split within three years. Years later, when Hancock appointed Gina as his unpaid adviser, she was described as his closest friend at Oxford. It is not known how well Gina and Martha knew each other at Oxford, if at all, but the pair are said to have graduated around the same time. They are also friends on Facebook, the Mail reports. And Gina and her husband Oliver Tress - the founder of Oliver Bonas - celebrated Christmas at parties with the Hancock family, it is claimed. According to The Sunday Times, Martha had no idea her husband was having an affair until he broke the news and announced that their marriage was over. Hancock reportedly raced home after being told about The Sun's revelations - which included pictures and video of him and Gina in a passionate embrace. He then delivered the bombshell news to Martha, who believed that their marriage had until that moment been "happy and stable". Family friends told the Daily Mail that the revelation had come as a shock to Martha, who is said to have had no suspicions over Gina. Hancock even woke up the couple's youngest child, aged eight, to break the news he was leaving.
