Turner-Hall is known to be good friends of Harlequins team mates Danny Care and Mike Brown, whilst Danny Cipriani and renowned veterans Peter Shinnick, Tani Fuga and Willy Baker are also on his list of close acquaintances. Aside from playing rugby, Turner-Hall spends a lot of time in the gym, and practicing his street dance skills, while he spent his younger days playing American football with the likes of Nick Ashburn and Charlie Canrac, who both went on to play professionally for the Miami Dolphins. Turner-Hall was known as 'The Bull' in his football playing days, and it is his hefty frame that can at times make him one of the most brutal attacking forces in the Premiership today. Turner-Hall's career has been a fledgling one so far, but honours such as representing Harlequins 1st XV at 17 years old, and playing for the England under 20s on a regular basis have already come before him.
