Real Madrid ace Jude Bellingham is dating Dutch influencer Laura Celia Valk, according to reports.
The news comes after the England star, 20, called time on his relationship with Ghanaian model, Asantewa Chitty, last year. Laura, 25, is now said to be smitten with the footballer and regularly stays at his luxury pad in Spain, with Jude preferring to keep the romance under wraps.
The duo, who both follow each other on Instagram, got tongues wagging last week when Laura dined at swish restaurant in Spain The Madrid EDITION hotel with a mystery companion. She shared a whole host of sultry shots while on her secret date as fans quickly tagged Jude, speculating that he was her anonymous companion.
Speaking out about their relationship, a source said: "Laura was quite loose in telling all the make-up artists about seeing him during her latest job. Practically everyone on set knew about it by the end of the day," reports The Sun. Laura's representatives declined to comment when contacted by Mirror Online.
Laura, who regularly posts snaps of herself modelling for brands including PrettyLittleThing - as well as staying in luxury hotels around Europe - studied creative business at Amsterdam University of Applied Science. She is represented by modelling agency The Four Models, based in Manchester, and is also reportedly the owner of her own social media consultancy agency.
Jude was said to be dating Ghanaian model Asantewa before meeting the influencer, but she kept the relationship private and never shared photos of the player on her social media pages. The ex-Birmingham City player has also been linked to US TikToker Azra Mian.

The Sun previously reported that Jude is entirely focused on his football, however, not another romance. Speaking about his commitment to the game, a source said: "Jude is all about football, that's his main focus. But he's still keen to meet someone to settle down with. He's been in London to see pals before the season heats up again. Jude is taking his time after the break-up."
The Stourbridge-born star is already destined to become one of Real Madrid's all-time greats, according to Raul. The Spanish striker, who is one of Los Blancos' all-time great goalscorers, was speaking in the aftermath of the England midfielder's last-gasp winner in the El Clasico, which ended 3-2.
Jude has made a storming start to life in Madrid after snubbing interest from elsewhere to join the Spanish giants. And Raul has already seen enough to declare that Bellingham will go on to become a Bernabeu legend.
