Former A Question of Sport captain Matt Dawson announced in 2020 that he and wife Carolin Hauskeller had separated after 11 years of marriage.
The rugby star took to social media, stating that their relationship had “taken a different path.” Despite the split, Dawson assured fans that they remain committed to co-parenting their two sons, Alex and Sami, and will continue to support each other as friends.

A Premier Signing: Sami Joins Brentford
In a proud moment for the family, Dawson's son Sami recently signed with Premier League club Brentford.
This achievement is especially significant given Sami's remarkable recovery from bacterial meningitis as a toddler. Diagnosed at just two years old, the illness left the Dawson family grappling with an uncertain future.
“Tackle Meningitis”: Dawson’s Campaign for Awareness
Following Sami's recovery, Dawson has dedicated much of his time to raising awareness about meningitis. Partnering with GSK's Tackle Meningitis campaign, he's used his platform to educate others about the dangers of the illness.
Reflecting on that challenging time, Dawson described the harrowing experience of watching Sami in an induced coma, where the outcome was far from clear.
"You have the immediate worry and not knowing what's around the corner," Dawson shared. "It was mentally tough, but we're some of the lucky few."
Life After the Split: Dawson Moves On
Since his separation from Hauskeller, Dawson has found new love with personal trainer and social media influencer Elizabeth Kelly.
Known for her motivational posts, Kelly's Instagram bio reads: "There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living."
