Demi Stokes/Katie Harrington

Man City star Stokes became a mum recently, when fiancee Katie gave birth to their first child.

Just two months ago, the NHS worker welcomed Harlen Harrington-Stokes, who was conceived by IVF.

But it wasn't always easy.  

Stokes revealed: "In our head, it was a case of: ‘we’re just going to go down to the clinic and then it will work and we’ll have a baby’... but it wasn’t as simple as that, and we had to learn."

Alex Greenwood/Jack O'Connell

Greenwood, another City star, has dated long-term love Jack since they were at school.

They crossed paths at Savio Salesian College in Bootle, Merseyside before falling for each other.

Jack is a professional footballer too - and plays for Sheffield United in the Championship.

Alex is said to be the glamour puss of the Lionesses. She's “very big into her heels, her dresses and her eyelashes," according to Jordan Nobbs.

Last year, Bright called him her "King" in a gushing message on social media celebrating his 30th birthday.
