What is Keir Mather’s relationship status?

Keir Mather is openly gay and doesn’t hide his sexuality but it’s unknown whether he’s dating or not or who he’s currently dating at the moment as he has kept that information away from the media.

According to his party biography, Mr Mather was born in Hull and grew up near Selby.

As a child, Mr Mather joined the youth parliament and set up a Labour group for young people in Hull, his mother has said.

“He just loves speaking,” said mum Jill Tambaros, adding that he had studied Speech and Drama in school and enjoyed performing in plays.

“We both just really enjoy politics, it’s just part of our life,” she told BBC News. “If ever I was cross with him he’d go, ‘mummy, shall I put on BBC News?’ – to cheer me up.”

He was named after James Keir Hardie, one of the founders of the Labour party, Ms Tambaros added.

After school, the young Keir went on to study history and politics at Oxford University, graduating with a first-class degree – according to his LinkedIn profile.

The minister for Veterans’ Affairs and Conservative said Mr Mather had been “dropped into” the Selby and Ainsty constituency and “spouted identikit Keir Starmer lines”, after earlier stating: “We don’t want parliament to become like the Inbetweeners.”

Mr Mather will become the youngest MP in the Commons – the Baby of the House – after overturning a 20,137 Conservative majority to win the north Yorkshire seat for Labour.

The Inbetweeners, which aired in the late 2000s, follows four friends at school who end up in awkward and embarrassing situations as they try to enter adulthood.

Explaining his comments to Sky News on Friday, Mr Mercer said: “I think this synthetic outrage, identikit Labour politician is the opposite of what people like me came into politics for.

Mr Mather has previously worked as a parliamentary researcher for shadow health secretary Wes Streeting, and more recently as a senior public affairs adviser at the Confederation of British Industry (CBI).

He also became a political leadership scholar at the Blavatnik School of Government, according to the University of Oxford.

Mr Mather’s mother described her son as articulate, observant and genuine, predicting he will do “very well” in the House of Commons.

“Nothing really fazes him, he doesn’t get stressed… he just takes things in his stride, one step at a time,” said Ms Tambaros.

Asked is he could be a future prime minister, she replied: “Why not? Never say never… he’s 25 and he’s done all of this!”

Labour leader Keir Starmer said the new MP would be a “fantastic MP who’ll deliver the fresh start that Selby and Ainsty deserves”.

Labour’s deputy leader, Angela Rayner, described the result in Selby and Ainsty as a “historic win”, adding she was “pretty certain [Mr Mather]… understands some of the challenges his generation faces”.

Speaking on BBC Breakfast, Ms Rayner said: “Being 25, he’s of that generation that is looking at insecure work, looking at not being able to ever own their own home – and looking at the challenges that they face with cost of living now, that leaves them in this spiral of not being able to get on in life.”

Keir Mather was born in Hull and raised in Bluff, East Riding, Yorkshire. He earned both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Oxford, studying history and politics before earning a master’s degree in public policy (MPP). During his time at Oxford, he was elected to the board of the Oxford Trade Union and was also co-president of the Oxford University Labor Club.

Keir Mather worked for 18 months as a Public Relations Advisor to the Confederation of British Industry before moving to Parliament, where he was Wes Streeting’s Parliamentary Fellow from 2019 to 2020.
