Introduction :

Mindy Hammond is a British columnist. She is also the wife of Richard Hammond, one of the presenters of TV shows Top Gear and The Grand Tour.

Personal Life : Parents, Family and Education

Mindy Hammond was born Amanda Etheridge on July 6, 1965, to mother Pat. Initially, she was named Alana.
Due to the young age of Mindy’s mother (her mom was nineteen) and the influence of her grandmother, Mindy was put for adoption. She later reunited with her birth mother, Pat.
Mindy has three half-sisters through her birth mother – Sara, Nicky, and Marianne.

She grew up in the countryside in Gloucestershire, near to Cheltenham.
Mindy met TV presenter Richard Hammond while they were both employed by the same company in London.
Richard proposed when Mindy was already expecting her first daughter, Isabella, by writing ‘Will you marry me?’ in a notebook that he presented to her.

Richard Hammond and Mindy got married on May 4, 2002, at the Prestbury village church. The couple’s daughter, Isabella, was a bridesmaid.
Together they have two daughters: Isabella ‘Izzy’ Hammond (20 years old, as of 2021), and Willow Hammond (17 years old, as of 2021).
On September 20th, 2006, Richard Hammond was involved in a severe crash while filming for Top Gear and suffered a brain injury that affected his short-term memory and caused mood swings and depression. He ultimately recovered from his injuries, and Mindy was very involved in helping with his rehabilitation.

Mindy lives with her family in the Herefordshire countryside, in a mock castle. She also owns property with Richard in London and France. Mindy and Richard have several animals at their country home – a turkey, peacock, rabbit, some sheep, geese, ducks, five cats, four dogs, and eight horses.

Career, Income, Salary and Net Worth :

She then quit her job and dedicated herself in full to raising her family and maintaining her big home and grounds.
Mindy had also been a columnist for the Daily Express since 2008, publishing frequent and popular snippets about her family’s life.

Interesting Facts, Height and Trivia :

Mindy loves horses and is usually in charge of taking care of her family’s eight horses at home. She was almost late for her own wedding because she stopped to admire the horses that had pulled her carriage!
In November 2017, Mindy’s husband Richard had another high-speed crash, this time while filming for his new show The Grand Tour. He managed to get out of it with only a broken knee, but he vowed to never race again out of respect for his children and family’s wellbeing.
A big fan of the Swedish band ABBA, Mindy attended the premiere of the 2018 movie Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again with her two daughters, who have inherited this particular passion.

Mindy first met her birth mother, Pat, when she was in her twenties, having hunted down her original birth certificate.
