Who is Grayson Perry?

Grayson Perry was born on March 26, 1960, in Chelmsford, Essex.

He has presented three seasons of Grayson's Art Club on Channel 4, where he encourages everyone to express themselves in art form.

In 2020, Grayson Perry's Big American Road Trip saw the flamboyant artist travel across the south, east and midwest on a multi-coloured Harley Davidson.

He has also fronted Rites Of Passage, Divided Britain and Who Are You?

In 2016 he explored the concept of masculinity in Grayson Perry: All Man.

Grayson appears publicly as Claire, designing many of her dresses himself.

In 2014 he told The Sunday Times: "I am not pretending to be female, or even some other character, I am a 'me'; a man in a dress."

He added: "People remark that I never seem more masculine than when I’m in a frock.

"Curiously, though, Claire has become my way of controlling my increasing celebrity. When dressed up, I am super recognisable; in civvies I can go about relatively unrecognised."

What his net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Perry is worth around £4.1million.

This worth would have been accumulated by sales of his vases and books.

Perry's vases are often decorated in bright colours and feature his female alter ego "Claire".

Who is Grayson Perry's wife?

Grayson is married to Philippa Perry, a British psychotherapist.

She is also the author of the graphic novel How to Stay Sane.

In 1992 their daughter was born, who they named Florence.

The pair live in London together.

When is Grayson Perry's Full English on Channel 4?

Grayson Perry's Full English will air at 9pm on Thursday, January 26, 2023, on Channel 4.

There are three episodes in total airing on consecutive weeks.

The show will see Grayson travelling around the country in a bid to uncover what Englishness means today.
