Harry Kane is regarded as one of England’s best players.
The 33-year-old has quickly cemented himself as one of the greats, becoming the first English winner of the Ballon d’Or in 25 years after being honoured at the London Palladium on Monday night.
In an emotional speech, the sportsman said: ‘To my wife Kate, my best friend. We’ve been through ups and downs. You are my biggest support and I felt like you wanted this more than me.’
Off the pitch, the Three Lions captain is a devoted family man with childhood sweetheart Katie Goodland and their four children.
Kate is regularly spotted cheering loudly for Harry at his matches, often travelling alongside him at tournaments.
But who is Kate and how did she and Harry first meet?

Kate and Harry are childhood sweethearts who were both pupils at Larkswood Primary in east London.
They went on to attend Chingford Foundation School, where David Beckham had also attended. An old photo during their school days shows the pair meeting the football legend as teenagers.
In 2017, Harry revealed how lucky he felt to have found his childhood sweetheart.
‘If I was single now and meeting people, you’d never know if they were with you for the right reasons,’ he told the Evening Standard.
‘Is it the money? You’d never really know. So I’m lucky that I’ve got a childhood sweetheart.’
In June 2019 they tied the knot in a still unknown location. But they did share several photos from the day alongside a sweet caption.
‘I married my soul mate, one of the best days of my life! Thank you for making my dreams come true, you are perfect,’ Kate wrote at the time.

The couple have daughters Ivy, born in 2017, and Vivienne, born in 2018. They also have sons Louis, born in 2020 and finally Henry, born in 2023.
The couple announced the birth of their son Henry with a heartfelt Instagram post.
‘Welcome to the world Henry Edward Kane. 20/8/2023. Love you baby boy!’ Harry wrote in the caption.
His fellow footballers shared their congratulations in the comment including Harry Maguire and Jack Grealish.
The couple also share two Labradors, Brady and Wilson.
How old is Kate Goodland and where does she live?
Kate is 33 years old and the family live in Germany.
Harry previously played for Tottenham, so the family were based in North London in a £17 million pad that boasted a lavish gym and even a man cave.
Following Harry’s transfer to German team Bayern Munich, they now live in a £30 million hilltop mansion in an area dubbed the ‘Beverly Hills of Bavaria’.
The family joined Harry in Germany earlier this year and are slowly settling in as he told the Guardian.
‘They’re in school now and have been skiing the last couple of weekends. Just having that has been great for them.
‘We’ve met a few of the parents at school and made friends with team-mates’ wives and kids. Slowly but surely it starts to feel like home. People ask what are the big differences, but a lot of the routine is pretty much the same.’
What is Kate Goodland’s job?
After studying sports science, Kate went on to work as a personal trainer, and sometimes shares workout tips and tricks with her nearly 250,000 Instagram followers.
Harry has shared his pride at Kate’s academic ability, once saying: ‘She always wanted to do her own thing. She went to university and worked hard.’
Kate also announced she had collaborated with jewellery brand Loquet London to create a collection in aid of the Harry Kane Foundation.
