Cheryl Denyer: Who is Grant Denyer’s Wife?

All about Chezzi!

When talking about Cheryl Denyer, Grant Denyer’s wife, it’s tempting to roll out the old phrase “behind every great man is a great woman”. True, Grant is pretty, well, great, but the thing that strikes me about their marriage is the true sense of equity and partnership.

Cheryl, or as she prefers Chezzi, (pron. Shezzi), is one hell of a ‘doer’. She’s a strong independent woman, successful in her own right. She and Grant are each other’s greatest supporters in a way that goes far beyond commercial gain.

Together they’ve ridden through the highest of highs and kept on punching through the lowest of lows. Any couple knows when you come out the other side of ‘the good the bad and the ugly’, your gratitude, love and respect for your partner goes through the roof.

In February this year, Chezzi and Grant celebrated 8 years of marriage. Here is just a snippet of what they had to say on social media:

Chezzi on Grant:

“8 years ago today, we both said I do. I never could have imagined that life or love could be this good. ‘I love you more and more every single day.Two beautiful, gorgeous little girls, that look and act like parts of both of us perfectly blended. A dream come true!”

Grant on Chezzi:

“It’s been an amazing 8 years, a lot of magical moments and yes, a couple of hard times along the way that I couldn’t have survived without your love & joy for life.And what a little family we’ve got! Two of the most spectacular kids anyone could dream of. Choc-a-block full of as much spunk, compassion, tenderness & humour as their gorgeous Mum.”

Now Grant, let me take the wheel for a moment to tell the world some cool things about your Chezzi they may not already know.
