Personal Life
Simpson was born to English and Jamaican parents. Simpson has a daughter called Skye, born three months prematurely in mid-2011. Danny lives in Ponteland, Northumberland. Danny Simpson was in the tabloid headlines on 16 November 2012, as a result of his link to Tulisa Contostavlos while claims his ex girlfriend Stephanie Ward was three months pregnant.
In April 2011, Simpson was caught doing 60 mph in a 30 mph zone in his Audi R8, hence adding four points to his driving license, which already had nine points on it. Under the totting-up scheme, Simpson should have been banned immediately. But pleading "exceptional hardship" at Newcastle Magistrates Court, he explained that he did not see paying for a chaffeur a good option, and allowed his lawyer to appeal the decision.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“What had really caused the women’s movement was the additional years of human life. At the turn of the century women’s life expectancy was forty-six; now it was nearly eighty. Our groping sense that we couldn’t live all those years in terms of motherhood alone was “the problem that had no name.” Realizing that it was not some freakish personal fault but our common problem as women had enabled us to take the first steps to change our lives.”
—Betty Friedan (20th century)
“It is not enough that our life is an easy one. We must live on the stretch, retiring to our rest like soldiers on the eve of a battle, looking forward to the strenuous sortie of the morrow.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
