It’s clear 2023 has been a rather eventful year for Irish footballer, Stephanie Roche.
She made the move from Peamount United to Shamrock Rovers, a serious move in her career.
She also appeared on this year’s season of Dancing With The Stars Ireland.
Her appearance in the dance show gave people the perfect insight into the person beyond the soccer pitch.
Stephanie revealed that her life behind the scenes is just as chaotic as what we’ve seen of her career in the last six months.

The footballer married her longtime partner Dean in a ceremony last year and has just moved in with him and his parents, Garry and Sheila as they attempt to save for a house of their own.
Stephanie has given high praise to her in-laws and the advice and guidance they have bestowed on her and Dean as they attempt to build a life together.
During an interview she told EVOKE: “Myself and Dean are living there since I came back from Italy. And honestly, they are such a dream to live with.”

Regarding their current living situation Stephanie sees themselves as incredibly lucky saying: “It’s a nice little setup, we are very lucky… we have our own little space but at the same time we think we should have our own space.”
She revealed, although they’re excited for kids in the future, she’s got some other things she would like to tick off her life list first.
Revealing a running joke between herself and Dean she says: “Because myself and Dean are sporty we will probably have kids that hate sport because we are so into it but all you want for them is to be healthy and happy.”
