The woman behind the Mrs Grealish 69 shirt, who became a viral sensation during the men’s UEFA European Football Championship in 2021, has described the “surreal” experience of lifting up the nation – and detailed just what it is exactly that makes Jack Grealish “a national treasure” following his first ever World Cup goal on Monday.
When Darcie Philp, 29, secured a ticket to the England vs Italy Euro 2020 final at Wembley in July last year, she did not expect the shirt she had brought along – originally gifted to her sister, Saskia – would feature on live television and later, have its own novelty mug.
