She is a sexual abuse survivor. Now, the Australian is an advocate for people suffering from sexual assault. She has been working on empowering and educating women and eradicating the victim-blaming practices in society.

Currently, Heery and Tame are in the media after taking a witty dig at PM Scott Morrison moments before she is announced Australian of the Year.

Who Is Grace Tame Husband/Partner Max Heerey?

Max Heerey is the Manager at The Grace Tame Team organization. He is the husband/partner of activist Grace Tame. In an interview with The Project, Heerey revealed that the two met about a year ago through a runner-out jog.

In the same interview, Tame stated that Max was his soulmate. She further said in their first night; they were already finishing each other’s sentences.

They started going out officially 2 weeks after the interaction. The couple shared a long embrace after Grace was announced 2021 Tasmanian Australian of the Year.

Following that, Heery appeared on The Project broadcast wearing a t-shirt with Tasmanian written on it. This goes to show how supportive he is as a boyfriend. 

The two of them have started a new project that will focus on changing and formulating laws surrounding sexual assault and grooming.
