In early March, 2024, Hello! reports that Hoffman and his wife Lisa Gottsegen – whom he married in 1980 – were spotted strolling through London together, sharing some sweet public displays of affection.
Hoffman married Gottsegen added four children to his brood of two that he started with his ex-wife Anne Byrne.
