Personal Life
From his first marriage Brydon has two daughters, Katie, born August 1994 and Amy, born July 1999, and a son, Harry, born October 1996.
On 6 October 2006 Brydon married Claire Holland, a former producer on The South Bank Show, at Windsor church. They live in Strawberry Hill in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, and have two sons, Tom, born in April 2008, and George, born in June 2011.
A fanatical golfer, Brydon is also a Swansea City fan and is an ambassador to their 1912 foundation.
Brydon has often been mistaken for comedian Ben Miller (and vice versa). As a reference to it, they dressed in similar outfits and shared a narcissistic kiss in the QI episode "Future".
Brydon was made an honorary fellow of the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama where he previously studied.
Brydon revealed himself to be a fairly devoted fan of Elvis Presley on the "XL" version of the sixteenth episode of QI (Series G) by going on at length about several facets of Presley's life and career, including the exact date of his death and the fact that Sam Phillips had attended the first of Presley's Las Vegas shows in July 1969.

Famous quotes related to personal life:
“Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters ‘woman’s peculiar sphere,’ her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.”
—Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
