Nathan Cleary joins Marlee and Me

At just 26 years old, Nathan Cleary already boasts three premiership titles, state and national representation, and is widely regarded as one of the best in the game. In this final episode of Marlee and Me Season 1, Nathan welcomes us into his childhood home, which he purchased from his parents a few years ago. Growing up with a father who was an NRL coach and quickly catching the attention of fans, Nathan has been in the spotlight since his teenage years. Surprisingly, he opens up more than expected in this conversation, offering a rare, candid glimpse into his life. Throughout this podcast series, it has become clear that family plays a central role in shaping the greats, and Nathan is no exception. The lessons from his parents and the deep love and responsibility he feels for his siblings provide insight into his drive to succeed. You will also hear about the unexpected emotions Nathan experienced during his recent hamstring injury and the pressures of having the country invested in his relationship with Mary Fowler.
