NATHAN Aspinall has managed to create a big name for himself in the world of darts.
But when he’s not travelling up and down the country for tournaments, there’s nothing he loves doing more than spending time with his wife, Kirsty.
Nathan is happily married to his wife Kirsty.
Kirsty tends to stay out of the spotlight and therefore little is known about her.
However, the professional darts player often shares sweet snaps of his wife over on his Instagram.
Back in November 2023, Nathan dedicated an adorable post to his wife, congratulating her on passing her driving test.
He penned: “Just wanna say a massive congratulations to this one on passing her driving test today.
“I know how stressed you’ve been about it but you’ve done it girl.
“So Proud of you well done.
“Now you best get saving for your car xx.”
The couple share two daughters named Brooke who will turn 12 this year (2024) and Milly who is four at the moment.
After finally securing two years of books on the professional tour in 2020, Nathan went and brought his first home for his partner and their children.
“Financially, I don’t have any money problems anymore,” he said.
“I’ve spent my whole life absolutely skint basically, whereas over the past few years, I have won a lot of money.
“It has changed my life for the better, it has set my kids up and it has given me and Kirsty a good life, so I owe a lot to darts so early in my career.”
Aspinall has been involved in the world of darts for many years and first began playing in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events in 2012.
Just two years after turning professional, he became number six in the world.
He qualified for the UK Open for the first time in 2015 but was knocked out in the fourth round, and returned the following year where he was knocked out in the second.
Aspinall won his first ranking PDC title in September 2018.
He beat Ryan Searle 6–4, qualifying him for his first World Championship.
Aspinall has competed at the World Championships every year since.
As of January 2024, he is ranked number four in the world.
He has been reported to have a net worth of just over £3.5million.
This is thanks to his successful darts career and his many sponsorship deals.
The player has been open about his money struggles in the past, revealing he was down to his last £20 before making it big.
He told the The Sun in 2019: “In September (in 2018), I was down to my last £20.
“That’s all I had to my name, I’m not going to lie it was a big worry.
“I’ve two daughters and I was going into games thinking: ‘If I hit this double, I win £1,000 and that pays a month’s rent.’
“That’s how bad it was.”
Aspinall was the winner of the 2019 UK Open and the 2019 US Darts Masters.
He also won the 2023 World Matchplay tournament.
While he may not have walked away the champion, Aspinall has had plenty of success at other tournaments.
These include becoming a semi-finalist at the 2019 World Darts Championships and the 2023 World Series.
