Cole Palmer and girlfriend fuel rumours with social media antics after 'difficult' admission

Daily Mirror6 days ago
Chelsea and England ace Cole Palmer has been dating influencer Connie Grace, but there has been speculation that the couple have broken up after it emerged that they are no longer following each other on social media
Cole Palmer and his influencer girlfriend Connie Grace have unfollowed each other on social media, prompting rumours that the couple have broken up. Palmer recently won the FIFA Club World Cup with Chelsea, starring in the final as the Blues beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-0.

Palmer had a hand in all three goals, scoring two and notching an assist, but Grace was not among the other wives and girlfriends that joined Chelsea on the pitch at MetLife Stadium to celebrate the victory.

And the couple have now sparked speculation of a break-up by no longer following each other on Instagram. Palmer and Grace have known each other since they were 17, but did not go public with their relationship until November last year when they appeared together at the GQ Men of the Year Awards.

Grace has 38,000 followers on Instagram and runs her own nail salon business in Manchester. Opening up about their relationship in Amazon Prime documentary 'England's Lions: A New Generation', Grace said: "I think we knew me through mutual friends so I think he probably had his eye on me.
"Oh, he's warm and cuddly. Well, with me, hopefully with no one else. When you know how much someone wants something and you know that's someone's dream, you just feel so proud."
Grace continued: "Cole now is still the same Cole that I met when I was 17. Obviously, he's changed, he's grown up, and his life now is completely different, but he's still the same boy, he's still laid-back Cole.

"Cole will adapt to whatever situation he's in. He's not bothered that he's that far from home because all he wants to do is play football and if it means leaving home and being in a place which is completely different to where he's from, he'll do it.
"He's not bothered about the whole fame side of it and he's not bothered what people think of him.
"He is only just bothered about scoring goals and doing well for his team, doing well for his country, and you've got to love him for that."

However, rumours of their breakup comes after Palmer admitted he has been having a "difficult time" recently. After scoring against Palmeiras in the quarter-finals of the Club World Cup, Palmer ran over to the Chelsea bench to celebrate with teammate Tosin Adabioyo.
And when asked about the celebration, Palmer explained: "That's my boy. Obviously, I've had a difficult time these past whatever months on and off the pitch, but he's always been there for me and he's helped me a lot.
"So, yeah, I just thought I'd go over to him."

Lindy Klim makes shock confession about her living conditions after fleeing Bali and leaving husband

Her social media may depict quite the enviable lifestyle, but Lindy Klim also knows a thing or two about 'slumming it'. Lindy, 45, moved back to Melbourne from Bali in October last year after her shock split with her husband of six years, Adam Ellis. Taking to her Instagram Story on Thursday, the Balinese princess revealed that her family had been eating their meals off a cardboard box. She shared one photo that depicted an open-plan living and dining space that offered an enviable view of the Melbourne skyline. Taking pride of place in the image was a stylish circular dining table with a thick, burgundy base, with four matching chairs surrounding it. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Captioning the image, Lindy revealed that the table was a very recent addition to the household. 'I'm so proud of myself,' she wrote. 'I've finally bought a dining table and chairs.' 'We have literally been eating off a cardboard box on the floor for months,' she added, augmenting the quip with a crying-laughing face emoji. Lindy shared a second photo that showed evidence of her low-key dining set-up. The image showed what appeared to be Lindy's new beau, Paul Mullert, sitting cross-legged on the floor with Lindy's youngest daughter Goldie, seven, and two more people, partially shown. Despite the very casual scene, Lindy's innate sense of style still shone through in the photo. 'I made it a little fancy with a tablecloth,' she captioned the image, with another laughing emoji. Lindy moved back to Australia in October after living in Bali for 14 years following her split with husband Adam Ellis. Speculation that her second marriage of six years had ended emerged after Lindy posed for a family portrait with her four children – with no sign of Ellis. After posting the image to Instagram, eagle-eyed followers noticed that Lindy was also no longer wearing her engagement ring. An insider told Confidential that the pair had been well and truly over for some time. 'They have also not been seen together for a number of months,' they told the publication. 'Plus he isn't in any of her social media photographs.' Lindy also teased the move in October, sharing two striking images of a Balinese sunrise with the caption: 'Last few hours in Bali, see you soon Melbourne.' Following her move to Melbourne, Lindy debuted her new relationship with medical tech businessman Paul Mullert in February. 'He's just a normal, nice guy. We've been seeing each other for a few months and just taking it slow,' Lindy told The Daily Telegraph. 'This is a nice little intro into my world.' Mullert was born and raised in Perth and was close friends with late Aussie actor Heath Ledger throughout his childhood. Lindy also revealed the surprising way they met: 'Paul's sister lives in Bali and she said you should go on a date with my brother. It's been amazing back in Melbourne.' Speaking about her return to Australia on the FemmeCon Presents: Modern Woman, Redefined in February, Lindy revealed that she came back Down Under starting from scratch 'I rented a house that's fully furnished, because I have nothing. I arrived in Australia with two suitcases and my kids,' she said. 'I left everything in Bali. I don't even care. I don't ever want to see it again.' Lindy shares three children with her ex-husband, Australian Olympic swimmer Michael Klim, Stella, 18, Rocco, 16, and Frankie, 13, and one with her second husband, Goldie, seven.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce finally go 'Instagram official' with 13 sweet snaps

After months of dating, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have finally gone 'Instagram official' with their relationship, sharing a series of loved up snaps online After months of fan excitement and keeping a relatively low profile about his love life, Travis Kelce has finally taken things to the next level and made his relationship with pop star Taylor Swift official on Instagram. ‌ The Kansas City Chiefs' tight end embraced the modern tradition of confirming a relationship via social media, offering fans a glimpse into their blossoming romance. On Thursday, Travis shared a series of photos documenting their summer adventures together in what marked a huge milestone in their relationship journey so far. ‌ Travis, who boasts 6 million followers on Instagram, posted a collection of snaps from their recent holiday. The images showcased various moments of their relationship, from boat trips to dining at upscale restaurants. ‌ One photo captured the couple enjoying a snowy landscape, while another showed them sharing a moment on an ice rink. In one particularly sweet image, Taylor is seen tenderly holding Travis's face as they pose with friends. Captioning the post, Travis wrote: "Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 100.", reports the Express. ‌ As soon as the post was live, fans and fellow celebrities flooded the comments section, expressing their delight at this significant step in the couple's relationship. Former NBA player Chandler Parsons chimed in with: "the hard post !" acknowledging that this was the first time Taylor had featured on Travis' Instagram feed. Betty Crocker, the baking behemoth, also couldn't resist chiming in, suggesting the post might just "break the internet." ‌ Among the collection of images, one specific photo caught the sharp eyes of fans, as it unveiled that Kelce's phone lock-screen is a snapshot of the smitten pair. In a discreet tribute to TayTay, the post included a total of 13 images, which happens to be Taylor's lucky number. ‌ The 35-year-old pop superstar and American footballer Travis have been an item since September 2023 and it seems they are as hungry for each other as always. The couple have supported each other on the road - with Travis, 35, tailing Taylor on her epic Eras World Tour which finally climaxed at the end of last year, and she attending games he played for his team, the Kansas City Chiefs. The couple have been reasonably happy to talk about their romance - with Travis occasionally talking about his girlfriend on his podcast, New Heights, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce, 37. And Taylor has declared her love to Travis while on stage and collecting awards. However up until now, the couple have never officially confirmed their romance on social media, making Travis' photo carousel all the more poignant.
