Thorgan Hazard's Wife Marie Kindermans: Who Is She?

Marie Kindermans is the wife of Thorgan Hazard, the Belgian forward who returned to RC Lens in July 2026 and the younger brother of Eden Hazard. According to Belgian daily La DH, the couple have been together since 2008, and they married at Christmas 2016, as Sporza reported at the time.

Marie keeps a very low profile, and we could not find an interview she has given to the press. In this guide, OhMyFootball sets out what reliable Belgian sources say about Marie Kindermans, corrects some of the claims copied across the internet, and brings the couple's story up to date for November 2026.

Who is Thorgan Hazard's wife?

Thorgan Hazard's wife is Marie Kindermans, his partner since their teenage years. Belgian daily La DH dates their relationship to 2008, when Thorgan was 15 and a player in the Lens academy.

One thing to clear up straight away: Marie is not Eden Hazard's wife. Eden, the former Chelsea and Real Madrid star, is married to Natacha Van Honacker, and you can read their story in our article on Eden Hazard's wife Natacha Van Honacker and their five sons. Marie is married to Thorgan, the second of the four Hazard brothers.

As far as is publicly known, Thorgan and Marie are still together in 2026. We found no report of a separation in the Belgian press.

Who is Marie Kindermans?

Marie Kindermans is a private person who has stayed out of the spotlight throughout her husband's career, from Zulte Waregem and Borussia Mönchengladbach to Borussia Dortmund, PSV, Anderlecht and now Lens.

Very little about her background is documented. Some websites publish a birth year, a birthplace and details about her parents and brothers, but we could not trace any of it to Marie, Thorgan or a mainstream news outlet, so we do not repeat it here. What the Belgian press has reported is the length of the relationship, the Christmas 2016 wedding and the couple's two daughters.

Marie Kindermans age and birthday

Marie Kindermans' date of birth and birthplace have not been published by a reliable source, so we cannot give her age, her birthday or where she was born. The figures that circulate on celebrity-profile websites cite no source, so we do not repeat them.

Thorgan Hazard was born on 29 March 1993 in La Louvière, so he turned 33 in March 2026.

How Marie and Thorgan met

The couple's story goes back to their teenage years in Belgium. La DH says they have been a couple since 2008, which means they were already together when Thorgan made his professional debut for Lens in 2011, when Chelsea signed him in 2012 and when he became one of the best players in Belgium during his loan at Zulte Waregem.

We could not find an interview in which Thorgan or Marie explains how they first met, so the details often found online (a school romance, a meeting through friends) are guesses. What is documented is the length of the relationship: by the time they married, they had been together for about eight years.

Thorgan Hazard and Marie Kindermans' wedding

Thorgan and Marie married at the end of December 2016. Sporza, the sports service of Belgian broadcaster VRT, reported on 29 December 2016 that Thorgan had married his girlfriend Marie Kindermans at Christmas.

According to Sporza, the guest list included plenty of football people: his brothers Eden and Kylian, and former teammates from Zulte Waregem. There was little time for a honeymoon, because Thorgan was about to leave with Borussia Mönchengladbach for their winter training camp in Marbella.

A wedding photo was shared on Instagram at the time, but that post can no longer be viewed. We could not find a reliable report of where the ceremony took place.

Marie Kindermans and Thorgan Hazard's children

Thorgan and Marie are parents. La DH lists two daughters born to the couple, in 2013 and 2016, so they were already parents when they married.

In March 2026, Thorgan told La Libre that he was almost 33 and had four children. He said it while explaining that he would only travel with the Belgium squad to play a real role, not to make up the numbers. The family has not shared details of the other two children publicly, and OhMyFootball does not publish the names or birth dates of Thorgan's children.

Thorgan does talk about fatherhood. In a 2026 interview with the Belgian Pro League, filmed when he won the league's Fantasy Player of the Month award for February 2026, he explained that his goal celebrations are often chosen by children, his own or his brothers' kids, when they come to watch him play. He also said he cooks regularly at home, and that the kids are always asking him to make French toast or eggs for breakfast.

In the same video he admits he hates karaoke, even though some of his family love it, and that if he had to sing, he would pick old French songs by Jean-Jacques Goldman.

Marie Kindermans family and the Hazard family

Marie has kept her own family out of the news, and we could not find reliable information about her parents or siblings.

By marriage, Marie joined one of the best-known families in Belgian football:

Thorgan's parents, Thierry and Carine, both played football and later worked as physical education teachers;
Eden Hazard, the eldest brother, played for Lille, Chelsea and Real Madrid, and retired in October 2023;
Kylian Hazard is also a footballer;
Ethan, the youngest, did not make a career in football, according to La DH.

In October 2025, Thierry Hazard told La DH that he could see Thorgan becoming a sporting director, rather than a coach, once he stops playing, possibly starting at Tubize-Braine.

Marie Kindermans education and job

We could not find a reliable source for Marie Kindermans' education or profession. The claims on some websites that she was a top student or that she is a model have no traceable source, so we have removed them from this article, along with the height and weight figures that circulate online.

We could not confirm any public Instagram, Facebook or X account belonging to Marie Kindermans. Accounts using her name should be treated with caution.

Thorgan Hazard is on Instagram as @thorgan10, a verified account with about 589,000 followers in November 2026. It focuses mainly on his football, and his bio now tags RC Lens.

Who is Thorgan Hazard?

Thorgan Ganael Francis Hazard was born on 29 March 1993 in La Louvière, Belgium, and grew up in Braine-le-Comte. Lens spotted him while he was playing for Tubize, and he joined their academy in 2007, at about 14. He has played on the wing, at wing-back and as a false nine. In 2026 he said that the only positions he had never played were centre-back and goalkeeper.

His career at a glance:

2011 to 2012: RC Lens, his first professional club
2012: signs for Chelsea, but never plays a competitive game for them
2012 to 2014: on loan at Zulte Waregem, where he wins the Belgian Golden Shoe for 2013 and the Belgian Professional Footballer of the Year award for 2013/14
2014 to 2019: Borussia Mönchengladbach, first on loan, then on a permanent deal from 2015
2019 to 2023: Borussia Dortmund, who paid a reported €25.5 million; wins the DFB-Pokal in 2021
January to June 2023: on loan at PSV Eindhoven, winning the Dutch Cup
September 2023 to June 2026: RSC Anderlecht
July 2026 onwards: back at RC Lens, on a contract until 2028

The video above is a French-language interview from February 2014 by Belgian broadcaster VOO Sport, in which a young Thorgan talks about his Golden Shoe and his time at Zulte Waregem.

Thorgan Hazard in 2026: from Anderlecht back to Lens

Thorgan's time at Anderlecht had a hard middle chapter. In April 2024 he injured his right knee against Union Saint-Gilloise and needed surgery, which kept him out until the end of that year. He has said that it took a lot of work to come back from such a serious injury.

The 2025/26 season was a revival. Playing in a more central attacking role, he scored 15 goals in all competitions, including a hat-trick at his former club Zulte Waregem in February 2026, and he was named player of the month for February. His contract ran out in June 2026, and talks over an extension stalled: in March he told La Libre that a one-season extension did not appeal to him.

In July 2026, RC Lens announced his return on a free transfer, with a contract until 2028. La DH reported in April that Lens had offered a salary well below what he earned in Brussels, but still more than a million euros a year before bonuses. Lens sporting director Jean-Louis Leca described the return of a former academy player as a beautiful symbol.

After a slow start, Thorgan came off the bench in Lens's 2-1 comeback win over Paris FC in October 2026, scoring one goal and setting up another. In the interview below, recorded after that match, he explains that never giving up is one of his strengths.

Thorgan Hazard and the Belgium national team

Thorgan won 47 caps and scored 9 goals for Belgium between 2013 and 2022. He was part of the squad that finished third at the 2018 World Cup, and his best-remembered goal for the Red Devils came at Euro 2020, when his long-range strike beat Portugal 1-0 in the round of 16 in June 2021. He also played alongside his brother Eden, and with former Dortmund and Belgium teammate Axel Witsel, whose wife you can meet in our article on Axel Witsel and Rafaella Szabo.

He has not played for Belgium since 2022, and he was not in Rudi Garcia's squad for the 2026 World Cup, announced in May 2026. Before that, he told La Libre in March 2026 that he would never turn down a call-up, but that he would rather stay at home than join the squad for ten days just to make up the numbers.

Marie Kindermans net worth

Marie Kindermans' personal net worth is not publicly known, and the figures published by some websites have no reliable basis.

Thorgan Hazard has earned well over a long career at clubs such as Gladbach, Dortmund and Anderlecht, but his exact salary has never been officially confirmed. The most recent reliable indication is La DH's April 2026 report that his Lens contract is worth more than a million euros a year before bonuses. Older figures quoted online, including the ones that used to appear in this article, were estimates and are now out of date.
