In a remarkably honest revelation that's sending shockwaves through the rugby community, Camilla Kershaw, wife of former England captain Chris Robshaw, has admitted to developing feelings for one of her husband's closest teammates during their relationship.
The Startling Admission
Speaking candidly in a new interview, the 32-year-old jewellery designer didn't hold back when discussing the challenges she and Robshaw faced early in their marriage. "I had a crush on Danny Care," Camilla confessed, referring to the Harlequins and England scrum-half who shared countless pitch battles with her husband.
Rugby World Cup Strain
The couple's relationship was put to the ultimate test during the 2015 Rugby World Cup, where Robshaw faced immense pressure as England captain during their disappointing home tournament campaign. "It was a really tough time," Camilla revealed. "We were going through a rough patch, and I found myself developing feelings for someone else."
From Crush to Confidante
In a surprising twist, Camilla and Danny Care's wife, Jodie, have since become close friends, with the two couples even holidaying together. "It's ironic how things work out," Camilla reflected. "Jodie is now one of my best friends, and we can actually laugh about it now."
Marriage Stronger Than Ever
Despite these early challenges, Chris and Camilla's relationship has emerged stronger than ever. The couple, who tied the knot in 2018 after eight years together, recently welcomed their first child. "We've worked through our issues and come out the other side," Camilla shared. "Our marriage is now in a really good place."
A Story of Resilience
This candid confession provides a rare glimpse into the personal lives of sporting celebrities, showing that even rugby heroes face relationship challenges. The Robshaws' story serves as a testament to the power of communication and commitment in overcoming marital difficulties.
