Green’s first wife Anna died after complications from eye surgery in May 2019. 

A week after Anna’s death, Brad spoke of his heartbreak at losing his beautiful wife.

‘Our lives are changed forever, but you will live long in our memories,’ he said, according to The Herald Sun.

He also spoke of the love she had for their two boys, before adding at how ‘amused’ she’d be that the service was being held at a football ground.

‘I can hear Anna say these words now: ”Brad, why is my funeral service at the bloody football ground? Again, football has taken over my life”.

‘I would have said: ”Well, my darling, we needed to find a venue big enough for your family and beautiful friends to come along”.’

The couple grew up together in Tasmania, but only started dating in 2002 when they reconnected in a chance meeting and caught up over dinner.

They married on December 28, 2013, the year after Green retired from the AFL.
