Who is John Delaney's girlfriend? All you need to know about Emma English

Under-fire FAI chief John Delaney has been dating Emma English since 2014.

Delaney, who stepped down from his role as CEO of the FAI in controversial circumstances last month to become the newly created Executive Vice President, first met Emma in 2013.

John took part in a charity dancing event which Emma was organising and following a brief friendship they quickly became an item.

The couple got engaged in New York in 2017 with John reportedly going down on one knee and producing a beautiful diamond for his bride-to-be.

Emma previously told RSVP magazine: “I have met my soulmate. At times, I find it hard to describe or put into words the love we share with each other.

“We are blessed to have found what we have found in each other “It’s unique and that’s a gift in itself.”

Emma is a fashion show producer, events and PR manager.

She was at John's side as Ireland beat Georgia in a recent Euro 2020 qualifier at the Aviva where some supporters vented their anger at Delaney and the FAI by throwing tennis balls on the pitch.
