Harry Redknapp was born in 1947 in Poplar, East London. After starting out as a trainee at Tottenham, he signed for West Ham and played for them between 1965 and 1972. He also played for Bournemouth and the Seattle Sounders before injury took him into management and coaching. He has managed at Bournemouth, West Ham, Portsmouth (twice), Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur and currently QPR. He won the FA Cup with Portsmouth in 2008 and took Spurs into the Champions League in 2010. He is married to Sandra and has two sons, Mark and Jamie (who played for Liverpool, Tottenham and England). He is also uncle to Frank Lampard. He has two bulldogs called Rosie and Buster. The former AFC Bournemouth manager and his wife were at Waterstones in Castlepoint on Thursday October 27 greeting scores of people who waited in line to get signed copies of their new book 'When Harry Met Sandra'. They’re so kind and they do so much for the community and I think we are so blessed to have them in our community.” Harry Redknapp is a well known and highly respected face in the world of football. But it wasn’t until his stint in the I’m A Celebrity Jungle in 2018 that he was propelled into a whole new audience along with his loyal wife of 55 years, Sandra.
Viewers instantly fell in love with the couple after Harry regaled tales of their meeting in the Two Puddings pub in Barking, London in 1963. And there was even a new found love for the classic jam roly-poly as Harry fondly revealed it was the dessert she always cooks for him! Another man, who moved to Bournemouth a month ago, said he wanted to come down to see a “local hero”. Sandra’s sister married Frank Lampard [Snr] and Frank knew it was time to go as well. Sandra’s dad was a lovely man called Bill Harris. He didn’t mess around!" This book was such a lovely read. It was as though as I was sat there talking to them. There's chapters from both Sandra and Harry, lots of stories of their life together from when they first met, including plenty of stories of their whole family. Throughout the story it's clear the love between these two is amazing. Also quite comical in places due to Harry's sense of humour, and sad in others. Their love story has captured the hearts of the nation, with their devotion towards one another as crystal clear today as it was when an ambitious 17-year-old Harry first gazed eyes at Sandra at the Two Puddings pub in Stratford.
Now, Sandra is joining Harry in the spotlight as they share their entire love story for the very first time. From their low key wedding, to the births of their two sons Mark and Jamie, Harry and Sandra will reveal the highs and lows of their marriage in their first ever joint autobiography, When Harry Met Sandra.History Makers: Female Writers Dominate the 2023 William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award Shortlist Best Books Set in the 1920s — from Stories That Shimmer with Champagne and Social Change, to Rip-roaring Reads Covering Crime, Colonialism and Beyond.
