Tirohia te wāhanga i raro nei, kātahi ka whakautu i te pātai i muri mai i te reo kotahi me te wāhanga:  Ka noho a Hopkins ki Malibu, California. I neke ia ki te US i mua, i te mutunga o nga tau 1970, ki te whai i tana umanga kiriata, engari i hoki mai ki Ranana i te mutunga o nga tau 1980. Heoi, i whakatau ia ki te hoki ki te US whai muri i tana angitu i nga tau 1990. I te pupuri i tana taangata Ingarihi, ka riro ia hei tangata whenua o Amerika i te 12 Paenga-whawha 2000, me te kii a Hopkins: "He taangata takirua taku; he mea noa kei te noho au i Amerika".Kua toru nga wa i marena a Hopkins: ki a Petronella Barker mai i te 1966 ki te 1972; ki a Jennifer Lynton mai i te 1973 ki te 2002; a, mai i te 2003, ki a Stella Arroyave. I te po o te Kirihimete 2012, i whakanui ia i tana huritau marena 10 ma te manaaki i tetahi ratonga motuhake i te Whare Karakia o St David, Pembrokeshire i te pito hauauru o Wales. He tamahine tana, he kaiwhakaari me te kaiwaiata a Abigail Hopkins (whanau i te 20 Akuhata 1969), mai i tana marena tuatahi. Kua wehe atu te tokorua, i te pātai mēnā he mokopuna āna, ka mea ia, "Kāore he whakaaro. Ka wehe te tangata. Ka wehewehe ngā whānau, ā, e mōhio ana koe, 'Kia haere tonu ki tōu oranga.' Ka whakatauhia e te tangata. Kaore au e aro ki tetahi ara, ki tetahi atu ranei. "He haurangi a Hopkins e whakaora ana; kua noho ia i te wa i mutu ai tana inu i muri noa iho i te Kirihimete 1975. E ai ki a ia, 35 tau ki muri, "I eke au ki te taumata nui i taku tono āwhina. I kitea e au tētahi mea, ā, ka kōrero mai tētahi wahine ki ahau, ka mea mai, whakawhirinaki noa ki te Atua. Na ka mea ahau, pai, he aha e kore ai?" I te pātai, "I tino inoi koe?" Ka whakahoki a Hopkins: "Kahore, kaore. Ki taku whakaaro na te mea i tono ahau mo te awhina, he momo inoi tera". I roto i te uiuinga ki a Larry King i te 2016, i whakaahua a Hopkins i a ia ano he agnostic ka kii "i whakapono ia ki te kaha o te ora" ana kei kona tetahi "whakaaro nui i roto i a tatou katoa". Kua whakamarama atu ia, "Kare au e mohio ki taku e whakapono ana, ko au ake... Ko te tino he hoariri. "I whakarerea e ia te momi hikareti ma te whakamahi i te tikanga a Allen Carr. I te tau 2008, ka tīmata ia i tētahi hōtaka whakaheke taumaha, ā, i te tau 2010, kua ngaro ia i te 80 pauna. I te marama o Hanuere 2017, i roto i te uiui me te Desert Sun, i kii a Hopkins kua kitea ia he Asperger...  Pātai: he aha i neke ai a Hopkins ki te US i nga tau 70?
