Who is World Cup star Harry Maguire’s wife Fern Hawkins and do they have children together?
HARRY MAGUIRE has battled through the heavy criticism to make Gareth Southgate’s 26-man squad for the World Cup.
And Maguire’s wife Fern has always stuck by the Manchester United star through thick and thin.
SunSport will be delving into who she is and if the long-term lovers have children together.
Who is Fern Hawkins?
Fern Hawkins is Harry Maguire’s fiancée and has a Bachelor’s degree in science and physiotherapy, graduating with a First Class Honours in 2017.
Like Harry, she’s from Sheffield, and the couple have been dating for just over 10 years after getting together on June 19, 2011.
Fern’s footballer beau isn’t the only target of her affections – her social media posts are littered with tributes to their adorable pet dog Simba.
But it seems the England ace has done enough to win her heart.
When did Fern and Harry get married?
Fern and Harry got engaged on February 17, 2018.
Fern revealed that he had asked her to marry him during a romantic getaway to Paris.
She posted on Instagram: “On Saturday night, Harry made me the happiest girl in the world & asked me to marry him in the most perfect way.”
During the 2018 World Cup, she was snapped wearing a stunning engagement ring as she travelled around Russia supporting her husband-to-be.
She was frequently seen in the stands enjoying the Three Lions’ stirring performances with a beer, and Harry sought her out after games to pose for loved-up selfies.
But the long-term lovers officially got married earlier on this year in 2022.

Do they have any children?
Fern Hawkins gave birth to the couple’s first child on April 3, 2019 – naming their new daughter Lillie Saint Maguire.
She came into the world exactly nine months after England beat Colombia on penalties at the World Cup.
That Round of 16 clash sparked huge celebrations, while Maguire was also pictured in a famous photo with the future mother of his child.
In May 2020, Fern gave birth to the couple’s second daughter – Piper Rose.
