Gorry met her fiance in Sweden when she relocated to the northern European nation to play football with Swedish club Vittsjo GIK where Markstead was a striker.

Markstead helped Gorry and her young daughter Harper find a home and the pair struck up a friendship before they went on their first date in May 2022.
