Personal Life
His relationship with singer Charlotte Church has been well covered by the media in the United Kingdom. On 20 September 2007, Church gave birth to a daughter, Ruby Megan Henson. On 11 January 2009, Church gave birth to the couple's second child, a son, Dexter Lloyd Henson. Henson was excused from a 13 December 2008 Heineken Cup match against Benetton Treviso because Church was due to deliver about a month prematurely; however, this did not happen. On 31 May 2010 Henson and Church announced that their relationship was over, only two months after they had announced their engagement.
Henson has appeared in advertisements for several companies, including Brits Bingo, Nike pro, Matalan, Nestle and for one of the Wales national team sponsors, Brains.
On 10 December 2007, Henson was charged, along with three other men, with disorderly conduct after alleged "rowdy" behaviour while they were travelling on the 19:37 First Great Western train from London Paddington to Cardiff Central on 2 December 2007. They had been summoned to appear at Cardiff Magistrates Court on 14 January 2008, but the case against Henson was later dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service due to insufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction.
On 1 April 2009, it was reported on the BBC that Henson was cautioned by police "in relation to the incident" following an investigation of assault at a premises in Cardiff's St Mary's Street on 15 February.
Henson chose Carianne Barrow to be his girlfriend on The Bachelor. The couple split in March 2012.

Famous quotes related to personal life:
“The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To ‘see the light’ too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
