Susie Burrell Husband: Who Is Chris Smith?

Chris Smith is the husband of Susie Burrell, a Dietitian, Nutritionist, Speaker, Author and Lego Lover.

Smith, an Australian talkback radio broadcaster and former presenter of the 2GB Sydney afternoon show and Burrell have been married for many years.

Smith and Burrell are paents to twin boys: Gus & Harry.

Burrell’s husband has admitted to having alcoholism and mental health issues and he has addressed those challenges on several occassions.

In 2009, he was suspended indefinitely from his role at the Macquarie Radio Network, following an incident at a 2GB party where he:

• Exposed himself to several women at the party,
• Attempted to kiss a female colleague and
• Indecently assaulted Network 10 journalist and meteorologist Magdalena Roze, after drinking for “an extended period of time”.

He admitted to misusing anti depressant medication, drinking heavily and claimed to have no recollection of the events.

In December 2009, despite the concerns of several female staff, he was reinstated and his contract extended.

In a shocking twist of events, Smith later denied the assaults on air when questioned by a listener, asking him “where did you make these facts from?”

In December 2022, Smith was suspended by Sky News after he was accused of behaving inappropriately toward colleagues at a Christmas party.
