Personal Life
Harmison currently lives in Ashington with his wife Hayley and their three daughters Alice, Abbie and Isabel, and their son, Charlie. A family man by nature, Harmison admitted to homesickness and missing his family each time the England team went on tour; in an interview with The Independent in 2005, he stated:
"I have a family. I have kids that need me around and they will dictate the decisions I make on my career....My international career will finish when my family needs me to be around a bit more."
He still remains a huge fan of football, and is a life long supporter of Newcastle United F.C.
