Cameron Green’s Personal Life
Cameron Green was born in Subiaco, Western Australia, and grew up with a serious kidney condition that has been part of his life since before he was born. Doctors diagnosed him with stage-two chronic kidney disease during prenatal scans. The condition means his kidneys filter blood much less efficiently than normal, and he has been monitored since childhood with regular hospital visits and ultrasounds. His parents were once told he might not live past age 12, but he grew up healthy enough to play professional cricket.
Green said his mother prepared kidney-friendly meals throughout his childhood. He manages the condition as an adult with the help of his girlfriend, Emily Redwood, who is a nutritionist. She helps plan meals that suit his medical needs, and Green has credited her support many times. Redwood also works in another professional field, and she is often seen cheering him on during matches.
