Tuipulotu was born into a rugby-playing family in Newport, Wales and started his rugby
journey at Cwmbran RFC. His older sister Sisilia and cousin Carwyn are professional players
and counts the Vunipola brothers and Taulupe Faleteu as cousins. Kepu looks up to Malcom
Marx, Dan Sheehan and Carlos Spencer as inspirations.

progressing through the London Irish Academy and says the school's coach James Melville
was one of the most inspirational so far. He joined Bath Rugby's set-up in 2024 and made his
Gallagher Premiership and Champions Cup debuts this season.
He made his England U20 debut in the 2025 U20 Six Nations after progressing through the
U18 programme, earning a Player of the Match performance against Scotland at Kingston
