COMMONS Speaker John Bercow has patched up his marriage and moved love cheat wife Sally back into his lavish Westminster home.
They are living as a couple again after they kissed and made up on a make-or-break family holiday.
Friends say John, 52, agreed to give their relationship a final chance after Sally, 45, vowed to keep a lower public profile.
The pair are now said to be “loved up” and devoting extra time to being together as a family.
“I’ve never seen John so happy and relaxed and Sally seems radiant with happiness.
“They’re like a pair of newlyweds all over again. It’s marvellous for both of them — not to mention their three kids.”
Their 13-year marriage hit the rocks in May after we revealed Sally’s affair with John’s lawyer cousin Alan Bercow.
The fling led to Alan, 57, moving into the Bercows’ £1.2million flat in Battersea, South London, while John was campaigning for the General Election.
John was on the brink of filing for divorce when the cheating pair split after a series of rows.
Alan returned to his wife Erica, while Sally said she had been a “terrible wife” and said that John would be “crazy” to take her back.
single life “excruciatingly painful”.
He agreed in July to give the marriage “one last chance”.
But he insisted that Sally, a former housemate of TV’s Celebrity Big Brother and a compulsive tweeter, focus on being a good wife and mother.
Now she has returned “lock, stock and barrel” into the Westminster apartment she loathed.
Her car is parked back in the usual place in the Commons and the pair take the kids for normal family outings.
Pals have been stunned by the couple’s unexpected reconciliation, but are delighted for them.
One said: “It’s the happiest I’ve seen Sally since this sorry affair began. John looks pleased to have her back around the house.”
Sally’s friendship with rising Tory star John began when they met at a Conservative student conference in 1989.
They married in 2002 but she then became a Labour activist.
She made headlines in 2009 after using her Twitter account to label David Cameron “a merchant of spin”.
Two years later, a controversial appearance in a newspaper, clad only in a bed sheet with Parliament in the background, put her firmly in the public eye.
Last night the Speaker’s office declined to comment.
