Phil and Rebecca are thought to have first met at a party when they were teenagers and have been together ever since.
Like Phil, Rebecca is also from Stokport and the pair are thought to be close in age.
Despite Phil’s career in the public eye, Rebecca has largely stayed out of the limelight and keeps her social media accounts private.
Phil has followed suit and she is rarely seen on his Instagram where he boasts 11 million followers.
She became a mother at age 18 when the couple’s son Ronnie was born. Their daughter True arrived two years later.
After Ronnie’s birth, Phil said: ‘I was there for the birth.
‘I walked out of the room, gave it a little tear and then went back in like nothing happened. I’m not one for crying in front of people.
‘I like to be on my own, but I was there in the room, watched it happen and it was a special moment. Your life changes.’

Rebecca lives in luxury in a £2million mansion in Bramhall, Manchester. Phil bought the house when he was just 18 after making his Premier League breakthrough.
The couple announced they were expecting their third child together with a heartwarming social media post.
Rebecca showed off her baby bump in a figure hugging blue maxi dress as she held baby True, who was dressed in a blue sequin dress.
Meanwhile the England footballer and son Ronnie matched in £370 Amiri black T-shirts which they teamed with skinny jeans and white trainers.
The couple posed in front of a large blue and white balloon arch and eye catching LED letters that spelt ‘baby Foden’.
Ronnie, who has his own Instagram account run by his mother, shared an insight into the celebrations on his social media page.
