A lot has changed between Euro 2016 and Euro 2024 for John Stones. The 2016 Euro saw the English defender stand tall for the Three Lions with childhood sweetheart Millie Savage cheering him on from the stands. However, eight years onwards, while Stones will still try to help his team clinch the European silverware, Savage is unlikely to be anywhere close to the player. Stones and his former girlfriend had a public falling out in 2019.

John Stones and Millie Savage have known each other since childhood, with the pair instantly hitting it off. They started dating when they were just 12 with the couple having a daughter.

However, the couple started growing apart in 2018, with Stones informing Savage he wanted to part ways just days after Christmas. This was massive from the English defender after he had got her face inked on his shoulders just two years before their breakup.

While things seemed quiet initially, the drama got out of hand after Millie Savage accused Stones of spying on her in 2020. Savage in an interview claimed Stones got out of his head after playing for England in the 2018 World Cup and did not seem the same person she once dated. However, the couple has now buried the hatchet. While they may no longer be friends, they still make sure they are the ideal parents of their daughter.
