She temporarily restricted access to her Instagram account, further shielding her off-field relationships. Pulse Sports understands the pair have been together since 2025, though exact details remain undisclosed. Their connection appears to stem from shared experiences in the international football world, with Jones now based in Australia following his retirement.

Jones, who represented Australia at international level, began his professional ascent with Middlesbrough in 2006, where he accumulated nearly a decade of appearances in the Premier League and Championship. His move to Liverpool on loan in 2010 became permanent, positioning him as a reliable backup to first-choice goalkeeper Pepe Reina.

Although his opportunities were limited by the team's depth, particularly during the 2014/15 season, when injuries to others provided starts, Jones contributed effectively in domestic cups and select league matches.

After departing Anfield, he secured the Eredivisie title with Feyenoord in 2017 before joining Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League from 2018 to 2021, where he recorded 43 clean sheets across 105 outings.

Jones retired in 2021 at the age of 39 and has since focused on coaching and development roles.

Was Brad Jones previously married?

Yes. Before his relationship with Onyinye Salome Zogg, Brad Jones was previously married to Dani Rose, a former model and physiotherapist. The pair got married in 2015.

In August 2025, Dani Rose revealed that their decade-long marriage was over, responding to a fan who quizzed her on social media.

She didn't answer the fan's question, instead correcting him on their marital status, simply responding: 'Ex-husband,' as reported by Daily Mail. It was the first time Dani publicly acknowledged the end of their marriage. The report does not reveal what caused the split as details of their separation is still unknown.

Brad Jones and Dani Rose also listed their home for sale in the riverside suburb of Applecross in October 2024. The pair had purchased the Duncraig Road property in 2020 for $3.9 million and sold it for $6 million earlier in 2025.

Brad Jones and his ex-wife Dani Rose raised three children before their split. The former spouses have both moved on with their new partners.

Her time at Young Boys Bern from 2018 to 2021 included a domestic league and cup double in the 2019/20 season.

After stints with Servette, Soyeaux and Turbine Potsdam, Zogg sealed a transfer to Perth Glory in Australia's A-League Women in the summer of 2024, where she has become a regular starter.

On the international stage with Nigeria's Super Falcons, Zogg's contributions have been hampered by injuries, limiting her potential impact.

Widely regarded for her athleticism, Zogg made her Super Falcons debut in June 2021 against Jamaica and featured prominently in qualifiers for the 2022 Women's Africa Cup of Nations under coach Randy Waldrum.

In May 2024, photos of Zogg wearing the Spain national team kit prompted speculations that she applied to switch allegiance. However, she confirmed that she wasn't and it was just part of modelling work she did for Adidas.
