Exclusive: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Uilisi Halaholo has had to battle to be here – against the odds of his upbringing, the trials of lockdown & tests of Covid.

He considered retiring in 2020 but Ray Lee-lo helped him recover. Now he’s a humble Welsh hero to be proud of.

On childhood: ‘we went to school with no lunch, would have a couple of pieces of toast & wait for dinner. My dad would work 6am to 6pm in the factory – then we’d eat.

‘People might see it as children not being taken care of but it was normal and we were grateful for it.’ #Wales
On Lee-lo’s help: ‘He didn’t need to, but would take me down to the 4G pitch at the Vale, to run, try and drop the weight and get the knee right. I wouldn’t have been able to make my Wales debut if he hadn’t pushed me.’
