Clarke is a happy guy also when it comes to dating. Hot model Lara Bingle was his girlfriend for a while. They even got engaged. However, he and Lara ended their engagement in 2010 and broke up. However, he didn’t stay along for a long. He started dating model and presenter Kyly Boldy. They married in 2012.
In 2015, there will be a lot of changes in Michael’s life. He and his wife also listed for sale their huge mansion in Southern Highlands. The asking price is incredible $6.5 million.
