Former Docker and Perth PR maven quietly call it quits

They have been regulars on the Perth social circuit for more than five years, but former Fremantle Dockers star player Ryan Crowley and PR maven Lauren Dunn will now be stepping out solo.

Sources have confirmed to PerthNow the well-heeled couple quietly called it quits last month after a romance that spanned half a decade.

They were last pictured together on May 18 at a party to celebrate the re-opening of Cottesloe wine bar MAS, and prior to that were regularly photographed at some of WA’s most exclusive events.

Dunn would not comment on the split, other than to say she and Crowley remained on good terms and the relationship had simply run its course.

As a master tagger for the Dockers, Crowley played 10 seasons with the club and claimed the 2012 Doig medal for being Fremantle’s best and fairest on the field.

He moved to Essendon in 2016 before hanging up his boots the following year, and now works as an AFL commentator and business development manager.

Crowley was previously engaged to model Samara Tugwell — another high-profile pairing that ended in late 2017.

Meanwhile, Dunn is one of Perth’s fastest-rising entrepreneurs as the head of public relations firm LCD Consulting, steering a growing list of Western Suburbs and inner-city hospitality clients.

She is also a popular food blogger under the alter-ego So Cooked, where she posts humorous recipe videos and reviews.
