The rugby dial resets on Saturday when the Autumn Internationals get underway in earnest and England host Australia at Twickenham. Head coach Steve Borthwick is looking to build on a hugely promising summer tour of Argentina, with a couple of new faces in contention to make an impact. Teenage Saracens star Noah Caluori is one of those names grabbing headlines of late as he looks to make his international bow on the wing. Meanwhile, Harlequins flanker Jack Kenningham is also targeting a first senior cap in the coming weeks. It's not only new players entering the spotlight for the first time either as a host of new wives and girlfriends enter the England camp. And Daily Star Sport has compiled a selection of those names expected to be seen at Headquarters in the weeks to come. One of those new kids on the block making serious waves under Borthwick is Northampton's Fin Smith, who is aiming to make the No. 10 jersey his own this autumn. The Saints star is currently in a long-term relationship with Gracie Hand. She has been with the playmaker for around five years and is understood to be working at Selfridges in London. A close companion to the aforementioned Smith on and off the field, Northampton winger Tommy Freeman has been with partner Ashleigh Inwood for an almost identical length of time. Like Smith and Hand, he and Inwood have been together since their late teens. They currently live together on the outskirts of Northampton. Beautiful blonde Ashleigh holds a master's degree in human resource management and works for Northamptonshire Police. Asked about his bromance with Smith, Freeman once told Mail Online: "Our girlfriends haven't been happy about it because they think we like each other more than them!" Staying in shape off the field shouldn't be too much hassle for Sale winger Tom Roebuck thanks to long-term partner Katy McVitty. Katy is a fitness trainer by trade and regularly posts content of the couple keeping active, even on holidays. Bristol Bears star Ellis Genge isn't the most public of props, so it stands to reason he's gone to lengths to keep partner Megan out of the spotlight. Nevertheless, fans have been given glimpses of his long-term partner, whom he met at Hartpury College and now shares three children with - two sons and a daughter born in March 2025. As far as power couples go within the England camp, fly-half Marcus Smith and Beth Dolling may take some beating. Harlequins star Marcus may not have the best chance at starting minutes at present. But he does have a strong support network that includes girlfriend Beth, a model and singer who is believed to have worked with PrettyLittleThing in the past. One of those new additions to the squad chasing a first cap, Quins star Kenningham also has cause to be happy in his home life with partner Poppy Daniel. Little is known about Poppy, other than she previously attended Bristol University and has worked for The Beach at Bude hotel. Anyone would be hard-pressed to keep up with Harlequins whiz Cadan Murley on the pitch, but that's the task Claire Hunt has agreed to take off it as his partner. The winger's girlfriend regularly posts pictures of the pair on their adventures, as well as updating followers on her home renovation DIY. Another contender for England's power couple, British and Irish Lions captain Maro Itoje tied the knot with partner Mimi, a model and artist, before jetting out to Australia this summer. The celebrity pair met during a modelling shoot and were engaged in 2024 before marrying one year later, and they look every part the iconic duo. One of the longest unions to appear on the list, Luke Cowan-Dickie and partner Chloe Rose are well-known to England fans and share one son, Arlo. Cowan-Dickie could earn his 50th cap against the Wallabies after serious injuries in the past, and Chloe has had to endure a lot over the years, including acceptance of her beau's former gaming addictions. If there were awards handed out to the most beautiful couple, former England Men's Player of the Year Freddie Steward and Madison Woan are hot contenders. Madison has the looks of a model but also holds a master's from Manchester Metropolitan University and is a content creator for a fashion brand. One of the sturdiest unions in the England camp, George Ford and Atdhetare Hoxha met after the latter opened an Italian restaurant in his neck of the woods. Fast forward to today, and the happy couple are married with one child, daughter Alarnia. Hoxha came to England after her family fled the Kosovo War when she was still a child. The couple are now living their best life in Saddleworth. Ford and his brother have since opened their own coffee shop in the civil parish, called Kobe, which is located next door to the restaurant in which the adoring couple first met. There's no shortage of brains in Alex Coles' household considering he's currently dating internal medicine doctor Jemima Sellicks. Jemima is a member of the Royal College of Physicians and works at Northampton General Hospital, while Coles has been tearing it up for the Saints for some time now. It's not enough for Henry Slade to be one of the most technically gifted English players of his generation. Instead, he's gone and cultivated what appears to be the most picturesque white-picket-fence families in the sport. The Exeter Chiefs utility star married wife Megan in 2022, and the pair share two children together. And Megan is believed to run her own business, too, after setting up Devon-based baby and children's online clothing company Olive & Bud in 2020.
