After Michael Martin resigned in June 2009, John Bercow ran successfully to replace him as president. As president, he was forced to leave the Conservative Party and remained independent throughout his term. He was re-elected without opposition at the start of legislatures in 2010, 2015, and 2017. This made him the first president since World War II to be elected four times, as well as the first president since then to serve alongside four prime ministers.

In 2022, an independent Commons complaints body found that John Bercow had repeatedly bullied staff, verbally abused them for more than a decade, and at one point made undisclosed discriminatory comments highway. The body concluded that it would have recommended Bercow’s expulsion had he remained an MP and that he should never have been allowed into the parliamentary estate. The Labor Party subsequently suspended him. As of 2023, he is the only living former Speaker of the House.
John Bercow married Sally Illman in 2002 after 13 years of an on-and-off relationship and they have three children. Their eldest son, Oliver, has autism. Sally had an affair with Bercow’s cousin in 2015, but Sally later returned to the marriage; Bercow said he had to bear some responsibility in the matter for not giving his wife enough time.
His wife, who had been a Conservative, switched to the Labor Party, campaigning both personally for her husband and the Labor Party in the 1997 general election. John Bercow and those close to him rejected the idea and said that she had a special influence on policy change. He and his wife both abstain from alcohol.
