England will compete in Tokyo on June 22, marking former coach Eddie Jones’ first game in his second tenure leading Japan.
Steve Borthwick’s team will then face the All Blacks in two tests in New Zealand: in Dunedin on July 6 and Auckland on July 13.
Below, we take a closer look at some of the players’ glamorous partners who will undoubtedly be cheering them on from the sidelines this summer.
#1. Katie George
Katie is the wife of Jamie George, the hooker for Saracens. The couple tied the knot in 2020 after being in a relationship for six years. Elliot Daly, Jamie’s teammate, had the honour of being the best man at their wedding.
Katie is a project manager consultant for KS TWO Consulting Ltd.
#2. Tess Boagni
Flanker Ethan Roots, originally from New Zealand, is romantically involved with Tessa Boagni, a prominent basketball player representing New Zealand in the women’s national team, the Tall Ferns.
Together, they joyfully embrace parenthood with their two sons, Noah and Benji.
A delightful glimpse into their family life was captured in a recent Instagram post, where Tessa and Ethan charmingly posed with their kids, all donned in matching red pajamas for their annual Christmas card. The caption affectionately read, “Roots/Boagni family Christmas card 2023.”
