The roots of Michael's career can be traced back to his twenties when he was performing in local comedy clubs. His popularity soared when he featured on Live at the Apollo.

His career spans many stand-up and hosting performances. He even served as a judge on Britain's Got Talent in 2011, along with Amanda Holden and David Hasselhoff.

His love story with wife, Kitty Ward, is as humorous as his jokes. Kitty prefers to maintain a low profile but often forms the crux of Michael's funny stories.

In his 2010 publication, Life and Laughing, Michael writes: 'She was the lady I had been waiting for. In my life's romantic comedy, she would have been the perfect end.

However, Kitty was initially indifferent to Michael, but with perseverance, he managed to win her over.

His family, however, was not too pleased with the development.

Furthermore, not everyone was excited about the new couple. On Desert Island Disks, Michael disclosed that his granny wasn't impressed with his new girlfriend. Initially, it was humorous but eventually, it turned into an unbearable situation.

Despite all the obstacles, the couple got married in 2003. Kitty now works as an aromatherapist while maintaining a low-key life. She is renowned as the daughter of deceased film star Simon Ward and the sister of actress Sophie Ward, famous for her role in Young Sherlock Holmes.

The couple are parents to Lucas and Oscar, and Michael's comedic performances often include anecdotes about his experiences as a father.

Michael's high-status BBC shows and Netflix partnership have boosted his net worth to around £75 million.

In celebration, he bought an impressive £10 million house in London.

The residence boasts eight bedrooms, an indoor pool, and an impressive cinema room. When he's not relaxing in his secondary Wiltshire home, he can unwind in his spa or exercise in his gym.
