COUPLE GOALS Jude Bellingham, 22, Gives Rare Look Into Romance with Model Girlfriend Ashlyn Castro, 28, on Her Birthday

Jude Bellingham took to social media to share a series of affectionate photos with his girlfriend, Ashlyn Castro.

The Real Madrid and England star, 22, posted a heartfelt tribute to Castro on Instagram for her 28th birthday, calling her “my love.”

The celebrity couple pose for a selfie

This comes just a week after Bellingham publicly expressed his support for under-pressure Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti.

The couple have been dating since January, and their relationship became public a month later when they were spotted together in the stands during Real Madrid’s 2-0 La Liga win over Girona last season. This occurred while Bellingham was serving a two-match suspension for comments he made toward the referee in a match against Osasuna.

Though they typically keep their relationship private online, Bellingham offered a rare visual glimpse into their romance.

One photo showed Castro sitting by a fireplace wearing a Real Madrid jersey with Bellingham’s name and number on the back.

Another included a selfie of the couple in matching white outfits, while several more captured them dressed up and posing for romantic photos on a balcony.

Castro later shared the photos to her own Instagram story after being tagged.

It’s no surprise Ashlyn Castro has lots of social media followers

The American influencer has 672,000 followers—a small fraction compared to her boyfriend’s 41.4 million.

In September, the couple was seen together on a yacht enjoying the sunshine while Bellingham was sidelined from England duty due to injury.

Three months earlier, Castro posted a birthday tribute to Bellingham on his 22nd birthday, sharing clips of them singing karaoke and dancing together.

Their relationship has not been without controversy.

Earlier this year, Castro was targeted by false claims about her past, with rumors circulating on social media that she had worked as an escort.

Castro was previously linked to Bournemouth co-owner and Hollywood star Michael B. Jordan.

She was also rumored to have dated British Formula 1 icon Sir Lewis Hamilton and famous actor Jamie Foxx.

In an emotional 10-minute TikTok video posted in March, Castro addressed the rumors.

She said, “It makes me super uncomfortable talking on camera about my personal life.

“From every angle you can think of, people have attacked me, harassed me, and been so disrespectful. It’s just been too much.”

Castro also denied infidelity claims and clarified her dating history.

She added, “I’ve had three boyfriends over the last eight years. In 2017, I was in my very first relationship, and because he was a public figure, people made up stories about me.

“Over the last six years, I’ve dated two people. So, three relationships in total.”

Bellingham could be in action tonight. He is part of Real Madrid’s squad for their Copa del Rey round of 32 match against fourth-tier Spanish side Talavera.
