CHRIS OF LIFE Chris Smalling and ex-Page 3 wife Sam left ‘gobsmacked’ after they ‘saw a UFO’ while on holiday in Jamaica

The loved-up pair are currently on holiday on the Caribbean island while they enjoy the off-season.

Chris Smalling and his wife Sam claimed to have seen a UFO in Jamaica

And it appears to be memorable for more reasons than one.

That is because the Roma centre-back and ex-page three wife Sam Cooke were left 'gobsmacked' by their sighting... after reassuring fans they weren't on magic mushrooms.

Sam revealed their experience on Instagram that started: "'Ok so I promise we weren't on magic mushrooms or anything but me and @smalling saw the craziest UFO last night!

"Not like a quick few seconds sighting of something high in the sky that could have enough a plane!

"It flew down low past us and then turned and shot back high up in the sky where it stayed for an hour (maybe longer but we had to leave) it was too small to get on film when it stayed stationed in the sky although Chris could see it rotating with lights flashing all around it, (I could only see the outer lights at this point as my eyes aren't as good).

"We could have got it on camera when it was flying by us as it was clear to see but we were both too gobsmacked to get our cameras out.

"Plus we didn't want to look away and miss whatever it was.

"It looked massive. It didn't look like your typical ufo sightings. It was totally silent."

Chris' wife Sam gave a detailed account of their sighting

She was eager to remind her 39,000 followers that they didn't spot a drone

Before her followers could comment that it could have been a drone, Sam added: "For the record it was 100 billion % NOT a drone.

"It was massive and very sophisticated with faint lights all around the edge.

"It was also an odd shape not like that of a drone. Crazy I know. Also wasn't a plane or anything like that. It was silent. Even drones are loud."

Smalling's Serie A campaign was hampered with a knee injury last season limiting him to just 13 starts.

But with Jose Mourinho coming in as boss on July 1, the England international will be hoping to recapture his form under the Portuguese manager.
