Competing in the biggest tournament of her young career, Lilli Ives Campion had to deal with more than just a Rugby World Cup when her granddad passed away.
The Red Roses lock opens up on the grief she dealt with during the 2025 tournament, her family’s reaction and how she told the squad as they were in the middle of preparations.
Ives Campion also talks about life growing up on a farm where she would ride horses and help with lambing, the importance of a notebook with Sarah Bern and how her match day make-up is an important part of her routine.
In this podcast you will also hear from Lilli’s mum Becca, her childhood friend Izzy Maguire-Evans and Red Roses players Jade Shekells and Lucy Packer.
This podcast was recorded in August 2026.
