Brendan Gallagher, a right winger for the Montreal Canadiens, is one of the most cherished players of ice hockey. However, not many know what he does off the rink.

Gallagher has been in a relationship with Emma Fortin, with whom he got engaged last summer. Fortin hails from Sainte-Julie, an off-island suburb of Montreal.

Fortin holds a Bachelor of Arts degree and Master of Science degree and is currently pursuing a Doctorate in Management and Strategy. She is working in HEC Montréal as a Research Assistant.

She has been with Gallagher for two years. Not much is known about Fortin’s family background, as they lead a private life.

Fortin and Gallagher appeared for an interview on canadiens.com. When the staff asked Emma about their first date with Brendan, she said,

"To start, I'd say he was shy. Then, he let down his guard and we haven't skipped a beat ever since."

Also, she revealed about their activities,

"We do everything; whether it's going for walks, going out for breakfast or dinner… We're always together."

When it comes to competitiveness, Fortin said,

“When we're together, I'd say I'm more competitive. It's as if he can't reach my level of competitiveness, so he's more calm.”

On July 7th, 2023, Gallagher proposed to Fortin during their vacation in British Columbia.

Although Gallagher and Fortin have not made their wedding date public, it is widely anticipated that they will marry soon. This upcoming marriage will be a personal milestone for the captain of Montreal.
