Hannah Hampton had fans rallying around after she revealed she is set to attend a family funeral just days after the Lionesses’ win.
At the weekend, the Lionesses retained their European crowns as they beat Spain on penalties. However, shortly after Hannah shared that her beloved grandfather died a few days before the Euro’s 2025 began.
And on Thursday (July 31) Hannah appeared on GMB in her first live TV interview since the Lionesses’ winning moment. But things took an emotional turn when she opened up about her late grandad.

Hannah Hampton on grandfather’s death
Hannah appeared on GMB this week and chatted to hosts Ed Balls and Kate Garraway.
Talking about the epic penalty shootouts in this year’s tournament, Hannah said: “Sometimes I say I don’t like it and sometimes I say I love it. I think the two penalty shootouts we had, I probably didn’t like it. We made it hard for ourselves, let’s be honest.
“I thought I’ve got to do my bit for the team and save a couple, but the first one against Sweden, it kept going on and on and on – we probably gave half the nation a heart attack.”
