He welcomed a daughter, Mila, with his long-term girlfriend Sasha Atwood nearly a year ago. When she arrived Jack called it ‘the most special moment of my life’
The players ongoing commitment to a boozy night out has seen him labelled early on as a ‘party boy’ while breaking into the first team as a young footballer at Aston Villa.
Despite ever dazzling performances on the pitch, his time at the club was marred by allegations of taking ‘hippy crack’ and photos of him lying sprawled across a road in Tenerife following a night of heavy drinking.
In 2022, footage emerged of the ex-Man City player apparently being refused entry into Manchester bar Albert Schloss for being too intoxicated.
In a clip shared on TikTok, Grealish was seen on the night out with former team-mates Kyle Walker and Riyad Mahrez, with another member of the players’ entourage supporting an unsteady Grealish.

When she arrived Jack called it ‘the most special moment of my life.’
However he also reflected on the year as one of the hardest of his life after he sat on the bench for City for multiple games.
‘Last year, the whole year itself, it was weird because my little daughter was born, but apart from that it was one of the most difficult years – probably the most difficult year of my life for many reasons, on and off the pitch.
‘I found it really difficult. But it’s a new year, a sort of fresh start, and hopefully I can kick on from here.’
