Moment Chelsea FC star Marc Cucurella is caught 'using his phone behind the wheel' of his £140k Mercedes G-Wagon
This is the moment Chelsea's Marc Cucurella was apparently caught using his mobile phone while behind the wheel of his £140,000 Mercedes G-Wagon. The 26-year-old Spaniard was said to have been driving the wagon near Dorking in Surrey, when he was caught appearing to be sending a text message. The footage was taken by a British couple as they drove past the left-back at around 6pm on Tuesday, May 20. Eight days later Cucurella was in Chelsea's starting line-up in Wroclaw, Poland, as Enzo Maresca 's men beat Real Betis 4-1 in the Uefa Conference League final. The couple claimed they had noticed the car before realising the driver appeared to be using his phone on closer inspection. One said: 'We looked over to see who it was and I clocked that it was Chelsea's left back Marc Cucurella. 'We drove past him again and I doubled checked to make sure it was him... he was on his phone. 'My partner in the passenger seat was able to get a video and photos.' Cucurella has been a near permanent starter for Chelsea this season in the Premier League, after being part of the squad that beat England in the final of the Euros with Spain in July 2024. The passenger added: 'It was really dangerous and very irresponsible of him, first to be doing it at all.' Drivers caught using a mobile phone behind the wheel in the United Kingdom face being hit with a £200 fine and six points on their driving licence. Cucurella moved to west London from Brighton in a £60million deal in 2022. The Spain international struggled for consistency on the pitch, and later revealed that a number of circumstances away from the game also contributed to his dip in form, including the burglary of his family home. However, as Cucurella settled at Stamford Bridge, the defender became an increasingly vital presence in the set-ups of head coaches Mauricio Pochettino and Maresca. Cucurella also starred for Spain at last summer's European Championship, helping La Roja take him the trophy for the fourth time in the nation's history. He features alongside his wife Claudia Rodriguez in the second season of Amazon's Married To The Game. Cucurella and Rodriguez allowed cameras to follow their daily lives, with the impact of their son Mateo's autism on the family one of the emotional flashpoints of the programme. The reality series also sees Rodriguez open up on the impact of a burglary which the family suffered shortly after the move to the west London club. Cucurella and his family lost £62,000-worth of property in the break-in, including Louis Vuitton bags.

A third penned: 'Wowww looking absolutely stunning as always Michelle'. The popular outfits are part of Michelle's clothing collection with Very, whom she tagged in the post.

Mark recently gushed about his family on his Heart Breakfast show while chatting to his friend and fellow dad, Olly Murs. He recalled the moment he first held his newborn daughter in his arms and labelled his wife a 'superhero'. He said: 'It's the biggest achievement of my life it's all I think about but obviously, hats go off to my wife she is an absolute superhuman, a superhero for bringing this baby into the world '. Adding: 'That moment when I held her in my arms, it gets me emotional now thinking about it... I suppose everything else goes out the window, and it's made me realise what life is all about, and my little baby Palma, I love you so much and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."

I'm spitting image of superstar Ed Sheeran – but I've become a hermit because fans mob me every time I leave the house
AN UNCANNY Ed Sheeran lookalike has been forced to become a hermit because he keeps getting mobbed by the megastar's fans. Ty Jones, who is the spitting image of the Lego House singer, claims that his life is far from Perfect because he has to wear a disguise whenever he leaves his home. 9 9 The 30-year-old professional impersonator, of Manchester, told how meeting Ed face-to-face was like 'looking in a mirror'. He is often forced to wear sunglasses and a hat because he gets stopped every time he goes to the shop. And Ty admitted that he still struggles to convince his two-year-old daughter that the songwriter is not her dad. Speaking to The Sun, he said: "Looking like Ed causes chaos - it's made me a bit of a hermit in my day to day life. 'I met Ed once at the Apollo in Manchester, but I didn't expect us to be the same height. 'I thought he would be a little bit taller, but it was eerily like looking into a mirror. He was shocked by the similarities too. 'Even my daughter she sees Ed and thinks it's pictures of her dad. "I'm still trying to teach her, but it's not easy when I struggle to tell us apart sometimes." Ty continued: "I'm not a very outgoing person and socially I'm not always the best, so it is difficult. It's a blessing and a curse. "Quite often I'll wear a hat and sunglasses when I'm nipping out. Wearing a face mask during Covid was the best time for me, I felt like a normal person for once. 'I realise that I can never take a day off because to everyone else I'm always going to look like Ed. Whenever he gets busy, I get busy. 'It's a job you can't leave and a mask you can't take off - I've accidentally become famous because of how I look!' Ty gave viewers shivers when he sat ringside at the Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn fight in London in April. During fights in the build-up to the blockbuster clash, Ty could be seen between rounds with other celebrity lookalikes David Beckham and Hannibal Lecter. The dad-of-one was invited by Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority to star as a 'tasteful alternative' to classic ring girls. His surprise appearance along with the other lookalikes stunned fans and caused chaos at the venue, with hoards of people crowding him as he went to use the toilet. One viewer said: 'Is that Ed Sheeran? Ed Sheeran is the ring girl. 'That has caught me completely off guard. What's going on here?' It even prompted the Shape of You singer, 34, to come out on social media and clarify it was not actually him. Responding to a viral video of his doppelganger, Ed replied: 'That ain't me bruv.' 9 9 9 Following his success at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, he was invited to appear in New York for the fight between US boxers Ryan Garcia and Rolando Romero just days later. But Ty explained that a number of 'spooky' coincidences have led him to believe that the pair have more in common than just their looks. He added: 'What I find weird is that we had a baby at the exact same time. 'His pregnancy was kept completely under wraps, but my wife had her baby less than two weeks after Ed's wife had hers. It's so spooky. 'I sometimes wonder if I'm a very distant cousin. I would love to get an actual DNA test of me and him. 'I've done a bit of research on where his family comes from and it turns out both of our families are from the same place. 'We have some heavy ancestry originating from the same place in Wexford, Ireland. 'It's crazy to think where the paths have crossed in previous generations, with our ancestors and relatives living in the same place all those years ago.' I gave birth to 'Ed Sheeran's' baby – I was exhausted but still went to the singer's concert hours later By Jon Rogers and Liam Coleman A WOMAN who had a baby with an Ed Sheeran lookalike was at the singer's concert just hours after giving birth. Ty Jones and his partner Amanda Baron welcomed their first child together in June 2022. They called their daughter Cherry Rose - in a nod to Ed's wife Cherry Seaborn - and added the middle names Leigh and Sheeran. And just hours after giving birth, mum-of-five Amanda, from Carrington, Gtr Manchester, was watching her idol in concert. Having had barely any sleep, the couple went to see Ed perform at Man City's Etihad Stadium. Amanda was introduced to Ty by pals who met him at one of the star's gigs. Ty, who looks so like the Shape of You singer that he works full-time as an Ed-alike, said: 'I feel phenomenal. Cherry is beautiful.' And Amanda, who is an Ed Sheeran superfan, said: 'She's perfect.' Cherry Rose, who arrived three weeks early, was born at Wythenshawe Hospital weighing 5lb 6oz at 4.08am. She said of the baby: 'I chose the name Cherry as it's so sweet. 'We also wanted to keep the Ed Sheeran theme in the family.' 9 9 9
