England and Manchester United goalkeeper Mary Earps graced the cover of a leading women’s lifestyle magazine in a stunning photoshoot that showed off her relaxed side.
Earps, 30, had a stellar 2023 as she was one of the stars of England’s World Cup campaign, where they reached the final before losing to Spain, and was crowned BBC Sports Personality of the Year in December. She also won the Best Women’s Goalkeeper award at the FIFA Best Awards.
She is known for her leadership on the court and her fierce attitude, but she recently let herself down during a photo shoot Women’s Health Britain.
Earps poses in a green Umbro football shirt, which she lifted to reveal part of her torso, a green dress, a red dress and a chic leather jacket.
The Lioness, winner of the Golden Glove at the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, will also open a major interview with the magazine.

It comes after Earps shared photos from a recent holiday to Barbados last month, posting photos of her lounging in a hammock, enjoying a well-deserved glass of bubbly and pottering around a phone booth.
Earps won hearts across the country with her World Cup performances and an impressive off-field campaign to have her jersey sold in stores to fans and celebrate her SPOTY gong in style in the Caribbean.
“Barbados, you were a dream. A much-needed refresh and the most perfect way to end 2023 and start 2024,” she wrote on Instagram.
During the World Cup, Earps was at the center of a fierce debate surrounding the availability of her England goalkeeper stopper.
It is understood that Nike had initially decided not to sell Earps’ shirt for commercial reasons, but in August they made an about-face when they announced that they would be selling limited quantities.
Reflecting on the incident to Women’s Health, Earps said, “It was personally sad that my friends and family couldn’t buy my shirt, but it wasn’t about me.
‘I think it was more about the message that was sent mainly to young children, but (also) to a whole group of people who have a huge passion and interest in goalkeeping. I felt like they were being avoided.”

She continued, “Ultimately the end goal was to get the shirts on sale, and I think we accomplished that.
‘(Hopefully) it encourages kids to keep going, pursue their dreams and play the position they want…
“I’ve always been a big believer in leaving the game in a better place and leaving that legacy behind.
‘Of course you always want to do that, the way you play football… But the shirt, I mean, I don’t think I’ll forget it, and I hope no one else will forget it.’
