Olivier Giroud and Jennifer Giroud married in 2011 after knowing each other for several years. Jennifer, aged 33, is notoriously private but has been known to open up on Twitter now and again. Some might say the fact that Jennifer remained tight-lipped after Olivier was spotted inviting a model to his hotel room prior a Premier League match in 2014. But actually it’s more likely the fact Jennifer was blamed for denying Olivier a move from Arsenal to Everton last summer.
And she also dug her heels in when Giroud looked like becoming the makeweight in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s transfer to the Gunners from Borussia Dortmund in January. “I think Giroud will do very well in Germany if he ends up there. I didn’t ask Jen, his wife … if she really didn’t want him to move to Everton, for example, because she didn’t want to move away from London to go to Liverpool I’m not sure what she’s going to feel once she discovers Dortmund.” It was later revealed that Giroud actually turned Dortmund down because of the imminent birth of his third child.
Jennifer and Olivier have a daughter named Jade who was born in 2013. Their son, Evan, was born in 2016 and last year they announced they were expecting a third child.
