The Lionesses have been met with an outpouring of love and appreciation from their nearest and dearest following England’s victory at the Women’s Euros 2025 Final.
After remaining at loggerheads with old rivals Spain for much of the match, the squad finally brought football home with a 3-1 win during penalty shootouts.
This was second time lucky for the Lionesses, who were previously beaten by Spain during the 2023 World Cup.
Things got off to a shaky start with a missed kick from Beth Mead, but England managed to forge ahead thanks to some sterling work from goalkeeper Hannah Hampton.
This gave woman of the match Chloe Kelly the chance to catch up, scoring the winning spot-kick.
As the country celebrates, the Lionesses’ partners have joined the nation in sharing their pride.
Chloe Kelly
Woman of the hour Chloe is married to groundsman and greenkeeper Scott Moore, having reportedly met while she was playing for Everton and married in 2024 after five years of dating.
Scott’s Instagram account is private, but Chloe reposted his pride-filled Instagram tribute to her own Story after the match ended.
‘Speechless once again,’ he wrote in the accompanying text, along with two silver heart emojis.
‘I’m so grateful to have you by my side,’ Chloe added below Scott’s picture and words.
Leah Williamson
Women’s England Captain Leah Williamson’s biggest cheerleader was partner Elle Smith.
The former Miss USA winner showed her support in a t-shirt emblazoned with the slogan ‘Live, Laugh, Leah.’
Although the pair have never confirmed that they are dating, they appeared to ‘soft launch’ their relationship this year in a series of loved-up social media posts.
Leah’s supportive partner previously showcased her pride after a match back in May, sharing a black-and-white selfie in which Elle wrapped her arms around Leah from behind.
Lauren Hemp
Ashley Hodson, partner of Lauren Hemp, celebrated the team’s win by sharing an Instagram Story and a series of pictures to her account.
‘Champions babyyy! So proud 🫶🏴🏆’, she wrote in the caption to her post.
In these pictures, she and Lauren could be seen standing side by side, with a grinning Ashley holding up the freshly won medal.
Meanwhile, in her Instagram Stories, Ashley described Lauren as her ‘inspo,’ sharing a picture of Lauren holding the trophy aloft.
Another image also depicted Lauren mid-celebration, roaring in victory in the wake of the team’s win.
Lauren has been dating Sheffield United midfielder Hodson since 2023.
Ella Toone
At the end of a Heineken-filled day, Joe Bunney, boyfriend of Ella Toone (and footballer for Stalybridge Celtic), shared footage from her joyous victory celebration.
‘Words don’t describe how proud I am of you,’ he wrote in one Instagram Story.
In the next, he shared a selfie with Ella, writing ‘BACK 2 BACK’ in the caption, along with two trophy emojis and two red hearts.
Beth Mead
Vivianne Miedema, the girlfriend of Beth Mead, shared a selfie with partner Beth and Australian footballer Steph Catley.
‘Proud proud’ the Dutch footballer wrote in the accompanying caption to her Instagram Stories post.
She then echoed the sentiment in a post to her main Instagram feed, sharing a snap of Beth sitting on her lap in the wake of the match.
‘🥹 proud of you,’ she wrote in the accompanying caption.
In the comments below, Beth responded: ‘Love you ❤️’
The football power couple first met while playing for Arsenal and have been together ever since.
