KATE Merson is the wife of football legend and Strictly Come Dancing 2024 star Paul Merson.
But who is the footballer’s wife, with whom he has had three of his eight children? Here’s everything you need to know.
Who is Paul Merson’s wife Kate?
Kate is the wife of football legend Paul Merson.
Although Kate prefers to keep her personal life private, Paul has been known to occasionally share a snap of his wife on social media.
Her husband, Paul, is a former star footballer who played with Arsenal for eleven seasons.
Since hanging up his football boots, he has worked as a match reporter and pundit for Sky Sports.
The Celeb Report exclusively revealed that Kate gives her husband an "allowance" in order to curb his spending.
Paul has had a well-documented battle with a gambling addiction that caused him to spend the family’s home deposit during lock-down.
When did Paul Merson marry Kate?
Paul married Kate in 2016, in a family ceremony at a Catholic church.
The nuptials were followed by a lavish reception, which even had a replica double-decker red bus.
This was Paul’s third time at the altar.
His first wife, Lorraine Costin, was his high school sweetheart but their marriage collapsed under the strain of Paul’s drug and alcohol recovery.
Lorraine said that she was "naive" to how much money Paul was losing, because he made £10,000 a week.
His second wife, Louise, has not yet publicly commented on her marriage to Paul.
How many children does Paul Merson share with wife Kate?
Kate and Paul have three children together, with their youngest being born in 2021.
Paul has eight children overall, with five of them being from his previous marriages.
He has three children with Lorraine and twin girls with Louise.
Two of Paul’s children with Lorraine, Sam and Ben, have decided to pursue football themselves.
