Lia Lewis Gribius (born 9 July[1] 1997) is an English freestyle football competitor and association football global ambassador who was raised in France. Having trained in dance most of her youth, she took up freestyle football in her 20s and became a world champion.
According to her talent agency profile, Lewis was born in London and raised in the Brittany region of France.[2] She was a competitive dancer from approximately 2010 to 2018.[3] Since her mother wanted to raise bilingual children, she moved with her parents, Stéphane,[4] a businessman,[5] and Karen (née Lewis) Gribius, an interior designer, to Baden near the Gulf of Morbihan in 2001. She has two siblings, Emily and Alexander. Her maternal grandparents are Irish (grandmother) and Welsh (grandfather).[4] Her father is French.[3]
