The Lionesses did England proud back in 2022 when they brought home the UEFA Euros Cup and the team will be looking for the same result at this year's tournaments. One of the pivotal players of the squad at the time was goalkeeper Mary Earps; however, she surprised many when she stepped away from the game last month.
While their football talent takes the team across the globe, the Lionesses have surprisingly down-to-earth lives with their partners and families back in the UK - and occasionally they share glimpses via social media so fans can admire their private homes.
Mary usually shares very little about her private life on social media, but from what she has shared, it's clear to see the talented footballer is incredibly proud of her home.

We wish we could sink into Mary's plush cream cube sofa, which she thanked Swyft Home for shortly after moving into her new home.

Bedroom

The sports star admitted that off the pitch, property is her secret passion as she shared a snap from inside her minimal, modern new home.

Whatever the discipline, whatever the dream, there are no magic beans or shortcuts to success — just a hell of a lot of hard work, resilience & determination in the face of adversity, and many many sleepless nights! Manifest it," she wrote, after revealing her passion for property development.

There's something about Mary
© DeFodi ImagesMary Earps was voted the world's top female goalkeeper at FIFA's The Best ceremony in February, a billing she more than lived up to in Australia this summer. Her acceptance speech demonstrated the same passion she exhibits week in week out on the pitch, with a rallying cry as roar and emotional as the one that followed her incredible penalty save in the World Cup final.
"This is for anyone who has ever been in a dark place, just know that there's light at the end of the tunnel. Keep going, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Sometimes success looks like this, collecting trophies, sometimes it's just waking up and putting one step in front of the other. There's only one of you in the world, and that's more than good enough. Be unapologetically yourself."
There truly is something about Mary.
