Bobby Ball - Personal Life

Personal Life

Ball married his first wife, Joan Lynn, in 1964, with whom he had two sons, Robert (born 1965) and Darren (born 1969), who are now a comedy double act in their own right, performing under their surname 'Harper'. Bobby and Joan separated in 1970. He married his second wife, Yvonne Nugent, in 1974 (although some reports say 1971). They have a daughter, Joanne (born 1972). Ball and Yvonne live in Lytham St. Annes, Lancashire.

Ball became a born-again Christian in 1986, as did Cannon in 1992, with their conversion having a lot to do with the re-kindling of their broken friendship.Together they published a book called 'Christianity for Beginners'. They now regularly feature in their own gospel and "An audience with..." show in churches around the country.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “Because one has little fear of shocking vanity in Italy, people adopt an intimate tone very quickly and discuss personal things.”
    —Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    “Yet come to me in dreams that I may live
    My very life again though cold in death:
    Come back to me in dreams, that I may give
    Pulse for pulse, breath for breath:
    Speak low, lean low,
    As long ago, my love, how long ago.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
