After England’s warm-up game last week in Tampa, Jude Bellingham’s girlfriend Ashlyn Castro was driven four hours to where he is staying.

She enjoyed a night with Jude playing card games such as Skyjo — which is similar to Uno — outside as the sun set.

The model posted a snap on Instagram of her looking glamorous at the team hotel.

Harry Kane’s wife Kate and Kobbie Mainoo’s girlfriend Layla Roye are also said to have visited before preparations intensify.

Initially, it was reported only players and staff were allowed in.

A source said: “It’s very unusual for them to spend so much time with the footballers before the World Cup.

“But Tuchel wants his pre-tournament camp relaxed before heading to Kansas.”

Goalie Jordan Pickford backed Tuchel’s decision to give players more freedom.

He said: “The tournament for us doesn’t start until June 17.

“So, I think this is going to be train hard, get used to the climate, have a bit of freedom, bit of downtime. Get the sticks out hopefully.”
