Overview

  • The Crown Prosecution Service discontinued proceedings against Keating and her mother, Nicola, after finding insufficient evidence.
  • In June 2024, a crash in Manchester led officers to discover nitrous oxide canisters in Keating’s car, resulting in possession charges.
  • Nitrous oxide was classified as a Class C drug under the Misuse of Drugs Act in November 2023, criminalizing its possession for psychoactive use.
  • Keating said she was relieved by the decision and reiterated that she had done nothing wrong.
  • She is set to travel to Spain as Hannah Hampton’s backup keeper in England’s squad for the European Championship.
