Andy Robertson has recently got married to his wife Rachel and some of the wedding pictures were circulating on the internet. Rachel’s social media presence is private and Robbo has shed some light as to why they keep it that way.
“It was something we kind of both decided to do. It was important that we try to live our private life in a very public world. We can’t stop me getting recognised or you can’t stop people wanting pictures. But we can control people not knowing really who Rachel is, and especially our kids,” Robertson told The Athletic.
“It was more kids based. As soon as Rachel fell pregnant, we wanted to protect the kids from everything. Some people do it, some people don’t. I just wanted my kids to live a normal life and not a life in the public eye. So far we’ve successfully done that, and hopefully it stays that way.
“Obviously, one of the wedding pictures came out. I’m not really sure where from. People follow Rachel’s friends or my friends to try to get pictures, but we’re very conscious of it. When you come to a club like Liverpool, there are more eyes on you. That’s why we decided for Rachel to go a bit more private. We don’t want her getting any unwanted abuse for absolutely no reason or for me not doing my job properly.”
