Cleary and Fowler Celebrate Relationship Milestone

Penrith Panthers coach Ivan Cleary has expressed how happy he has seen his son Nathan Cleary, attributing this to Nathan's relationship with Matildas star Mary Fowler. The couple, who went public with their romance a year ago, have been sharing their experiences from a recent trip to Europe, where Nathan postponed shoulder surgery to spend time with Fowler. While the surgery was delayed due to the surgeon's availability, it has raised questions about whether Nathan could have returned to Australia sooner for the procedure. Ivan acknowledged that although the timing of the surgery was not ideal, Nathan's happiness is crucial. Meanwhile, Fowler has publicly declared her love for Nathan through creative Instagram posts, further indicating the strength of their relationship. As Nathan prepares for rehabilitation, he faces a tight timeline to be fit for the 2025 season opener.
