After being reunited, NRL player Nathan Cleary and Matildas player girlfriend Mary Fowler spend time together.

Nathan Cleary and his girlfriend Mary Fowler enjoyed a romantic lunch date in Penrith after being reunited earlier this week. The NRL star and Matildas player have been cherishing their time together, marking a significant moment in their relationship. Nathan, 26, chauffeured the couple to the venue, engaging in cheerful conversation as they parked the car.

For the casual lunch outing, Mary, 20, opted for a light brown shirt paired with a faded denim miniskirt adorned with a studded belt. She showcased a minimal makeup look, styling her hair in a high bun, and completed the ensemble with white sneakers. Nathan sported a spacious white shirt, loose navy blue shorts, and white sneakers with high socks.

The couple’s reunion took place on Tuesday when Cleary welcomed Fowler at Sydney airport, ending months of separation. Their relationship became public earlier this year during a romantic date in Perth, dispelling ongoing speculation. Cleary was later seen supporting Fowler at the Matildas’ victory over Taiwan, where she delivered an impressive goal.

Since early November, Cleary and Fowler were apart, with Fowler returning to England to play for Manchester City while Cleary enjoyed his off-season with a trip to the United States. The couple celebrated their first Christmas together, as evidenced by a photo circulating on social media of their heartfelt airport reunion on Tuesday night. Despite being known for their privacy regarding relationships, Cleary acknowledged the unexpected intensity of the spotlight on his personal life. He shared that dealing with public scrutiny has been a learning experience, especially as his career progressed.
