Jonny Wilkinson will forever be remembered as the man who kicked England to World Cup glory in 2003. But there's plenty more to the rugby legend than his famous drop goal.
From meeting his wife in a Magaluf cocktail bar to sharing a house with his rugby-playing brother, Wilkinson has enjoyed a fascinating life away from the pitch.
The former Newcastle Falcons and Toulon fly-half also had some unusual habits during his playing days, including practising his kicking on Christmas Day.
Here are 10 facts you might not know about one of England's greatest-ever rugby players.
1. He met his wife in Magaluf
Wilkinson met Shelley Jenkins in 2005, shortly after splitting from Sky Sports presenter Diana Stewart.
Shelley was working as a cocktail waitress in Magaluf, Majorca, alongside her twin sister Tracey.
The couple began dating and later moved to France together when Wilkinson joined Toulon in 2009.
They married in October 2013 in the French town of Bandol, near Toulon.
The ceremony was incredibly private, with just two guests attending, including Wilkinson's mother, Philippa.
2. He previously dated a Sky Sports presenter
Before meeting Shelley, Wilkinson was in a relationship with television presenter Diana Stewart.
The pair reportedly met while Stewart was studying at Newcastle University.
Their relationship ended in 2005, although Stewart insisted they remained close.
Speaking about their separation, she explained that there was no single reason behind the decision.
Stewart later married professional golfer Nick Dougherty in 2010.
3. His brother was also a professional rugby player
Jonny wasn't the only talented rugby player in the Wilkinson family.
His older brother, Mark Wilkinson, also played professionally for Newcastle Falcons.
A centre, Mark made 16 Premiership appearances for the club between 2002 and 2005.
The brothers even lived together in Newcastle, spending their spare time playing table tennis.
Despite Jonny becoming one of rugby's biggest names, the pair shared a close relationship away from the spotlight.
4. He practised kicking on Christmas Day
Wilkinson's dedication to rugby was legendary.
While most people were enjoying Christmas dinner, the England fly-half was known to head to the training ground.
He would practise his kicking even on Christmas Day.
His relentless pursuit of perfection helped make him one of the greatest goal-kickers in rugby history.
However, Wilkinson has since spoken openly about how his intense standards sometimes affected his happiness.
5. Jeremy Guscott thought he'd won a competition
Wilkinson made his England debut against Ireland in 1998, aged just 18.
But his youthful appearance reportedly caused some confusion.
When England legend Jeremy Guscott walked into the dressing room, he initially thought Wilkinson was a competition winner enjoying a special day with the squad.
Little did he know the teenager would go on to become one of England's greatest players.
6. He once went into a shark tank
Wilkinson enjoyed an unusual experience during the British & Irish Lions tour of Australia in 2001.
Alongside England teammates Richard Hill and Martin Corry, he entered a shark tank.
It was a rather different challenge from facing the Wallabies on the rugby pitch.
The experience became one of the more surprising stories from his early international career.
7. He stayed home to learn chess after an England victory
Wilkinson was never known for wild celebrations.
Following a Six Nations victory over France, he reportedly chose to stay home rather than go out with teammates.
His reason? He wanted to learn how to play chess.
It was another example of the fly-half's quieter personality and his desire to keep his mind occupied away from rugby.
8. He once scored from the halfway line playing football
Wilkinson could have pursued a very different sporting career.
As a youngster, he played football and reportedly scored from the halfway line during his first match.
Despite that remarkable start, he eventually gave up the sport.
He felt he wasn't good enough and believed football was interfering with his rugby.
Interestingly, Wilkinson also became a Newcastle United supporter during his time in the North East.
9. He was terrified of making mistakes
Despite his success, Wilkinson struggled with the pressure he placed on himself.
The fly-half has spoken openly about anxiety, perfectionism and his difficulties enjoying success.
Even winning the 2003 Rugby World Cup did not bring the lasting happiness he had expected.
Over time, Wilkinson began exploring meditation, mindfulness and different ways of approaching life.
He has since become an advocate for mental wellbeing, sharing lessons from his own experiences.
10. He launched his own fashion business
Wilkinson's interests extend well beyond rugby.
In 2011, he launched a menswear brand called Fineside.
The former England star also developed an interest in nutrition and later co-founded the kombucha drinks company No.1 Living.
His life after rugby has included business ventures, television punditry and work focused on personal wellbeing.
