Pippa Wetzell: ‘I’ve got a new man in my life’

The Fair Go presenter talks to the Weekly about the new guy on her side.

It’s official; Pippa Wetzell’s new TV husband is her match made in heaven.

“I’ve got a new man in my life,” she confirms to the New Zealand Woman’s Weekly.

The presenter of Fair Go has welcomed a co-star, Hadyn Jones, to the current affairs programme – and he’s apparently fitting right in.

“I feel very relaxed with him,” she says.

“It’s good when you’re presenting with someone else to know they’ve got your back.”

But despite Pippa’s obvious happiness with her new partner in crime, Hadyn is apparently having trouble adapting to having a work wife.

“When you’re co-presenting, you have to stand quite close together – like awkward close – and my boss did say, ‘Hadyn, you’re not used to having an on-screen wife, are you?’ But it already feels a lot less awkward,” Hadyn who, like Pippa, has three kids, explains.

Having previously worked on Holmes, Close Up, CBC Television, 20/20 and One News, Haydn is a well-loved and respected journalist.

He replaces former Fair Go presenter Gordon Harcourt, who left the show earlier this year after eight years.
