Like Dewin, Meg also loved football and watched her boyfriend play.

Meg has never missed the important games played by the soccer player since the beginning of their relationship.

Lilley supported him and posted pictures when the player scored the winning goal in the final and won the FIFA U-20 World Cup in 2017. Not only in Sheffield, but Meg also attended his games at Everton.
