Jude Bellingham’s romance with WAG Laura Celia Valk is a ‘pretend’ stunt

The love affair between Jude Bellingham and Laura Celia Valk was an elaborate stunt, sources claim.

While other WAGs have gathered to support their beaus during the Euros, the Dutch babe has been notably absent. As her supposed honey scored the winning goal in England’s opening game against Serbia on Sunday, Valk’s Instagram account revealed the stunner was enjoying a glam break in Paris.

The 25-year-old was still hanging out in the French capital yesterday, as the Real Madrid star faced off against Denmark.

Jude Bellingham
A source claimed the pair’s ‘romance’ was a PR stunt

As questions start to arise over the couple’s “romance”, it’s now been revealed that their relationship was a publicity stunt, reports MailOnline. A source claimed the stunt was concocted by an executive at clothing company Pretty Little Thing, where Valk models.

The paper reports the model confided in make-up artists and hairdressers that she and the 20-year-old footballer had become close during lingerie shoot in Madrid.

It’s understood clothing brand Pretty Little Things, where Valk models started the rumour

Pretty Young Things leaked gossip that Valk was “completely smitten” by Bellingham and had spent time at his home in Madrid to the media. It was also claimed she had seen him play at Real’s Santiago Bernabeu Stadium

Neither Valk or Bellingham have commented on their reported relationship, and still haven’t been seen together two month’s on from the lingerie shoot.

It’s believed Bellingham still has a profile up on the A-lister dating app Raya. The source said when Pretty Little Things bosses overheard Valk saying that she knew Jude, a member of staff contacted the tabloids.

Makes sense, as while Bellingham headed to the Euros, Valk was nowhere nearby

They said: “It was one of those rumours that grew legs and there doesn’t seem to be an awful lot to it. But what was evident from the leak is that it got Pretty Little Thing a lot of publicity.

“The story that Laura and Jude were dating went everywhere, and each time the story was repeated, PLT got a mention. It’s quite clever, really.

“The world has been waiting for a glimpse of Laura but it doesn’t look like that is going to happen, she seems to be doing her own thing in Paris and having a jolly old time, too.”
