What nationality is Jeremy Hunt’s wife? Lucia was born in 1978 in the city of Xi’an in China and migrated to the UK prior to meeting the Tory MP and holds British citizenship.
Jeremy and Lucia’s first meeting was in 2008, when she was working at Warwick University recruiting Chinese students for the university. They tied the knot in July 2009, and they have a son and two daughters.

She regularly appeared on Sky TV’s China Hour, and presented her own show called Signature Flowers Of China.
Lucia has been very supportive of her husband’s politcal career and in 2019, she watched her husband launch his bid to become the leader of the Conservative Party and was dubbed his “secret weapon”.
She again supported him as he launched his bid for the Tory leadership in 2022, but he ended up being knocked out in the first round.
On Friday, Oct. 14, 2022, Lucia celebrated a big win as her husband was appointed as Chancellor after Kwasi Kwarteng was sacked from the role.
