The couple have been dating since early 2018 and moved in together during the first Covid lockdown in 2020. They also share a dog together named Kevin.
Murray previously told RTÉ’s Ray D'Arcy Show that Cooper moved in fully at the start of lockdown, “which has been brilliant”.
"Thankfully we were planning it anyway, Joanna was due to move in at the end of the Six Nations back in March, it was happening anyway."
Murray played an integral role in Ireland’s Six Nations campaign which wrapped up last Saturday with Ireland beating Scotland 26 to 5 in the Aviva Stadium, which meant they secured the Triple Crown.
