England rugby legend Lawrence Dallaglio reveals he was in therapy after becoming consumed by 'self-pity' following collapse of his marriage which left him bankrupt

Former England rugby captain Lawrence Dallaglio has spoken openly about the personal and financial turmoil following the collapse of his 20-year marriage to model Alice. The couple, who have two daughters and a son, announced their divorce in early 2025 after enduring multiple challenges, including allegations of infidelity. Shortly after selling their family home in Richmond for £2.4 million, Dallaglio was declared bankrupt due to unresolved financial issues related to his sports company, which had already entered liquidation in 2023. During an interview on The High Performance podcast, Dallaglio described feeling consumed by self-pity and retreating into isolation during the crisis, acknowledging that his personality as an extroverted individual made the emotional impact more severe. He reflected on whether the struggles were due to personal failings or external factors, but did not specify any particular course of action he might have taken differently.
