Personal life

Grealish has worked as a self-employed driver, driving an articulated truck. However, in 2022, he was banned for driving for two years for a second instance of driving without insurance.[4] His solicitor explained to the court that his own truck was insured but that, mistakenly thinking he was covered by that insurance, Grealish had been caught the second time while using his brother's vehicle with the intention of collecting a takeaway meal he had ordered for consumption elsewhere.[4] However, the judge was obliged, under the law, to disqualify Grealish from driving for two years, and to issue a fine of €200.[4]
