Everything You Need To Know Heath Streak’s Wife: Nadine Streak
Heath Streak and Nadine Streak have been married for almost 30 years. With his wife, Heath led a happy married life. Through all of her husband’s ups and downs, she has been his staunchest ally.
When Heath was accused of racism while serving as the Zimbabwe coach in 2018, Nadine defended him. She made a point of mentioning their mixed-race family and defending her husband against accusations of racism.
The Zimbabwe Cricket Board fired Streak and his coaching staff at the moment after the national team was unable to earn a spot in the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup. Board chairman Tavengwa Mukuhlani falsely asserted that Streak was selecting teams primarily based on race in an effort to defend his firing.
Nadine was quite upset by this and claimed in an exclusive interview that her husband was being falsely accused of being a racist despite having adopted a black son named Kevin.
