Earl and England look ahead to Rugby World Cup semi-final<\/h3>\n

Alan Shearer’s daughter Holly has been dating England rugby star Joe Marchant since February 2022 – much to the delight of her father, who is just happy she isn’t dating a footballer. The popular Match of the Day pundit appears to have a good relationship with Marchant judging from social media.<\/p>\n

Shortly before Marchant jetted off to the World Cup with his England team-mates, the couple enjoyed a romantic trip to Greece and posted plenty of snaps from their sizzling getaway. The lovebirds filled their followers’ timelines with pictures of sandy shores and breathtaking sunsets but it was Marchant’s swimwear that caught Shearer’s eye.<\/p>\n

Among the collage of pictures was a photo of Marchant relaxing by the pool in some very colourful speedos. Always the joker, Shearer commented: \u201cWTF are the smugglers you have on?\u201d in reference to his turquoise trunks.<\/p>\n

When Shearer was asked about his daughter\u2019s relationship with Marchant, the Newcastle United legend and all-time Premier League top scorer expressed his relief, quipping: \u201cI\u2019m just glad it\u2019s not a footballer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Marchant was in excellent form for England against Fiji last week as he moved from right-wing to outside-centre. The 27-year-old stormed through the Fijian line to extend the Red Roses’ lead to ten points with a sublime try.<\/p>\n

Although Fiji came back late it was not enough to overcome Steve Borthwick’s men, who were able to see off their adversaries thanks to some brilliant kicking from Owen Farrell. After the game, Borthwick gave credit to his players for their hard work on the pitch. \u201cI thought the players were magnificent, the whole squad worked hard to get that result,\u201d he told ITV.<\/p>\n
