Alex fulfilled his promise to able to stand at the altar as Teigan walked down the aisle in an emotional ceremony in 2017.

He was able to stand at the altar as she walked down the aisle. Alex became a quadriplegic after the Newcastle forward was involved in an awkward tackle against Melbourne in 2014 when he was just 22. Alex and Teigan McKinnon, who wed in 2017 after the former NRL player became a quadriplegic from a tackle, have reportedly separated.

Couple who captured hearts of the nation call it quits (The Sydney Morning Herald)

Alex McKinnon's devastating spinal injury rocked the league world, but out of that came the inspirational story and love that the footballer and Teigan ...

He will be on about a third of his current deal when he joins the Storm, but his desire to get to Melbourne now is the eye-opener. Talakai worked his backside off that pre-season and got a spot in the Sharks’ top 30. The truth is he was on the NRL scrap heap when South Sydney let him go in 2017, before then Cronulla coach John Morris gave him a train and trial deal for 2020. They want an investigation into that and what they say is a collapse of the junior league. I think there’s some blokes doing it at the moment who I can look towards and take a leaf out of their books. It’s not a stretch to say his career was done and dusted in Australia after he fell out with the Sea Eagles, where he was very poorly treated, in 2018. Tariq Sims should never have been made to feel unwanted by the Dragons and is the last player they should be allowing to leave the club early. His family didn’t want him to go to the UK, but his agent, Sam Ayoub, told Jackson and his mum that was his path. He said that he understood the interest in the story, as they had been a very public couple and had received strong support when together. O’Sullivan has a big reputation in the game built up through his media contacts, but the failure to turn the Warriors around, and now missing out on Kalyn Ponga, on top of other big-name targets such as Reed Mahoney, has increased the pressure on him. The rugby league community, and then the nation, got to know the couple through the most unfortunate of circumstances: the tackle in 2014 that left McKinnon with spinal injuries that have confined him to a wheelchair. Alex and Teigan have three kids under three – including twins – and the stress of that took its toll on the pair.
