Who is Lee Westwood’s girlfriend and caddie Helen Storey, and when did they start dating?
LEE WESTWOOD continues to star on the golfing world stage – and he’s aided along the way by girlfriend Helen Storey.
Storey is scared of divots with worms in and doesn’t claim to know much about golf, but is always at her man’s side as she caddies for the Brit star.
Who is Lee Westwood’s girlfriend Helen Storey?
ORIGINALLY from Newcastle, Helen is a fitness instructor who has also worked in consultancy.
Westwood gave her his bag during the Made In Denmark competition in September 2018 after handing usual caddie Billy Foster a week off – and responded with one of his best performances of the year.
Since then, she’s been a regular on the links alongside her man – and will be beside Lee as he goes for glory in the 2021 Arnold Palmer Invitational.
She likes to keep her Instagram followers updated on her fitness exploits, with snaps and videos of her gym exploits posted regularly.
Helen has also proved herself to be handy with a club, with Westwood posting a video of her striking a decent approach to a Par 3.
He captioned it: “Wow! Flush! And she remembered to pick up her tee!”
She was once again by Westwood’s side in Sun City, South Africa, as the English golfer won his first tournament since the Malaysian Open in April 2014, his 26th in all since turning pro in 1993.
When did they start dating?
THE pair got together in 2015.
They were introduced by Westwood’s mate Graham Wylie, who is married to Storey’s sister.
Westwood was formerly married to Laurae Coltart – who he wed in 1999 – but the couple divorced three years ago.
