As for George's own home, he lives in a stylish London property along with his wife and three children. The TV star likes to keep his private life out of the spotlight but has previously revealed his desire to get his children involved in architecture and DIY, too.
He told Lorraine Kelly on her show back in 2020: "I've almost thrown them in at the deep end to be honest with you. I think the sooner you get your kids building and doing stuff, the better."
