Jack Grealish and his long-term partner Sasha Attwood have built a surprisingly grounded family life despite the intense scrutiny that comes with elite football, recently revealing that vegetable gardening has become a regular shared activity at their Cheshire estate. The couple, who welcomed daughter Mila Rose recently, continues managing the tension between public visibility and private family routines as Grealish navigates his loan spell at Everton from Manchester City. Their relationship demonstrates how high-profile athletes and their partners create normalcy within extraordinary circumstances, balancing multi-million pound property investments with simple domestic activities and managing occasional controversy around lifestyle choices.
Recent planning applications and Christmas celebrations have provided windows into how they structure their lives when Grealish isn’t performing on the pitch.
Jack Grealish disclosed through planning application paperwork submitted to Cheshire East Council that he and Sasha Attwood regularly spend time cultivating vegetables in allotment-style gardens at their property. This revelation surprised many fans who associate Grealish primarily with his on-field flair and high-profile lifestyle rather than horticultural pursuits.
The application sought a Lawful Development Certificate confirming that specific activities on their nearly 10-acre estate don’t require planning permission. In the submitted documents, Grealish detailed how various sections of the property are utilized, explicitly stating that he and his family “cultivate vegetables in the allotment sections”.
This hobby represents a grounding activity that contrasts sharply with the pressure-filled environment of professional football. From a practical standpoint, the vegetable gardens provide a controllable, low-stakes activity where outcomes depend on consistent care rather than match-day performance or media narratives.
The planning application received support from the property’s former senior gardener, who dedicated 27 years to the estate, as well as from the previous owner. These endorsements strengthen the case that current land use, including vegetable cultivation, aligns with the property’s historical purpose and established patterns.
Grealish’s Cheshire property covers nearly 10 acres and includes multiple recreational features beyond the vegetable gardens. The estate contains a Japanese water garden, a boating lake, tennis court, putting green, and expansive grassy areas designed for both recreation and relaxation.
In his planning application, Grealish described various family activities: “Since I acquired the property, my family and I have engaged in golf practice, as well as boating and fishing on the lake”. He further explained that outdoor areas serve as a social hub, stating “We have used the lawns for gatherings with friends and general leisure activities”.
The property also accommodates their dog, with specific garden spaces designated for pet use. This level of detail in the application provides unusual transparency into how wealthy athletes actually utilize their properties rather than just acquiring them as investments or status symbols.
Cheshire East Council is expected to evaluate the application and issue a decision, which if granted will officially allow Grealish and his family to continue using the gardens and allotment areas without requiring further planning permission. The bureaucratic process reveals how even routine property use by high-profile individuals requires formal documentation and approval.
Grealish resides at the estate with Sasha Attwood, and the couple welcomed their daughter Mila Rose recently. The arrival of their child has shifted priorities and created new dimensions to how they approach both public visibility and private time.
On Christmas Day, Attwood shared a family photo on Instagram showing the couple with Mila Rose in matching festive pajamas, specifically tartan-patterned sleepwear. This type of curated social media content allows controlled sharing of family moments while maintaining boundaries around what remains private.
The estate functions as their primary residence while Grealish continues his professional career, currently on loan at Everton from Manchester City. This arrangement provides stability for Attwood and their daughter even as Grealish’s club situation involves temporary moves and potential long-term career decisions.
The gardens appear to play a meaningful role in their family routine rather than existing merely as landscaped features of an expensive property. This practical use of the grounds suggests deliberate choices about how to structure family time and create normalcy despite the unusual circumstances of elite sports careers.
Recent reports indicated that Grealish spent approximately £20,000 on a Christmas party that concluded at a London strip club around 4am. The event took place during approved time off following an Everton match, with the squad granted a day of rest before their next fixture.
Grealish reportedly traveled to London for the festive gathering, meeting former Manchester City teammate Kyle Walker, with both seen together in the VIP section of Winter Wonderland at Hyde Park. The evening progressed to a strip club where the total bill reached £3,500.
Sources emphasized that Grealish behaved respectfully throughout the evening, was not interested in private dances, and acted as a “perfect gentleman,” with celebrations occurring during permitted time off and no club rules breached. This framing attempts to preempt criticism by establishing that the activity, while attention-grabbing, didn’t violate professional obligations.
Both Grealish and Walker adhered to club regulations during their night out and were expected to be available for the upcoming weekend match. The incident illustrates ongoing tension between personal freedom during scheduled breaks and public expectations about appropriate behavior for high-profile athletes.
The contrast between the Christmas party headlines and the family photo Attwood shared on the same day reveals the complexity of managing public perception. One narrative emphasizes nightlife and lavish spending; the other presents wholesome family moments in matching pajamas.
Both elements are presumably accurate representations of Grealish’s life, yet they create competing narratives about priorities and lifestyle. The vegetable gardening revelation adds yet another dimension—the grounded, patient activity that requires ongoing care and produces tangible results unrelated to football or celebrity.
For Attwood, navigating this environment means managing her own visibility while supporting Grealish’s career and protecting their daughter’s privacy. The strategic decisions about what to share, when to share it, and how to frame family life all contribute to reputation management in an environment where every action generates commentary and interpretation. Grealish’s attention now turns to upcoming football commitments, with the Everton loan aimed at securing consistent playing time as he contemplates longer-term career direction.
