Partey and Janine’s relationship history
Janine and Thomas reportedly began their relationship in 2022, opting to keep it low-key in the early days, according to The Sun.
Their bond became more visible when Janine travelled to Ghana in June 2023, where she was introduced to Partey’s family.
By October 2023, the couple’s romance took centre stage as Janine announced her pregnancy via Instagram.
On January 23, 2024, they welcomed their first child together, a baby girl. Her name, however, has not been made public.
Three months later, in May, the couple marked another major step when Thomas proposed, sealing their commitment after the arrival of their daughter.
Thomas Partey’s performance before his charges
While their personal life reached joyful milestones, Partey continued to thrive professionally.
The midfielder helped Arsenal to a third consecutive runner-up finish in the Premier League and guided them to their first Champions League semi-final in over a decade.
He was later named Best Ghanaian Male Footballer for the 2024/25 season at the Ghana Football Awards.
According to Transfermarkt, Partey featured in 52 matches, scoring four goals and providing three assists during the campaign.
Away from the football pitch, however, serious legal trouble has clouded Partey’s future.
The 32-year-old is currently in the UK, where he faces five counts of non-consensual acts and an additional charge of sexual assault.
His lawyer, Jenny Wiltshere, has strongly denied the accusations on his behalf and stressed that her client is prepared to clear his name through the legal process.
According to the BBC, he is scheduled to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, August 5.
Partey faces life in prison if found guilty
In an earlier report, YEN.com.gh revealed that Thomas Partey could be handed a lengthy prison sentence if convicted of the sexual offence charges against him.
A Ghanaian legal expert weighed in on the matter, stressing the seriousness of the allegations while underscoring the importance of a fair and unbiased judicial process.
