World Cup 2022: Three Lions stars share kisses with their WAGS in the stands ... trends now

Loved-up WAGs smooched their England heroes after Gareth Southgate's Three Lions tore Senegal to shreds in Qatar.

Wives and girlfriends wearing the side's football shirts went wild as the England squad ripped apart their World Cup rivals in Doha, with Captain Harry Kane sharing a kiss with wife Katie Goodland and Bukayo Saka embracing girlfriend Tolami Benson after the 3-0 win.

Footballers Conor Gallagher, Luke Shaw and Kalvin Phillips were also seen kissing their partners Aine May, Anouska Santos and Ashleigh Behan in the stands of the Qatari stadium last night.

England will now face defending champions France at Al Bayt Stadium in the quarter-finals this weekend.

Phil Foden's partner Rebecca Cooke leapt up from her seat as England took the lead - while Jack Grealish's girlfriend Sasha Attwood and Jordan Pickford's partner Megan Davison smiled and clapped. 

Other WAGs who celebrated from the stands included Harry Maguire's partner Fern Hawkins, Eric Dier's fiancee Anna Modler, Declan Rice's partner Lauren Fryer.

England wonderkid Jude Bellingham, who at 19 is the youngest member of Southgate's squad, posted a selfie with his father Mark Bellingham - a former West Midlands Police sergeant who scored more than 700 goals in around 900 appearances at non-league clubs including Leamington, Stourbridge and Sutton Coldfield Town - and mother Denise.

Teenage midfielder Bellingham, who set a world record for a 17-year-old when he moved from boyhood club Birmingham City to Borussia Dortmund for £22.5million in 2020, is coveted by several top Premier League sides.

But he owes his love of football to a star of the lower reaches of the game – his father.

Mark Bellingham, now 46, scored more than 700 goals in around 900 appearances, making him a sort of non-league Cristiano Ronaldo.

Bellingham senior juggled stints at clubs including Leamington, Stourbridge and Sutton Coldfield Town with his day job as a sergeant with West Midlands Police.

In his pomp, he earned only around £200 a week from football. His son takes home around £2.5million a year in Germany and would more than triple that with a move to an English club or to Spain – Real Madrid are said to be interested in signing him next summer.

And although Jude admitted he later grew to idolising the likes of Wayne Rooney, it was Bellingham senior's action on the pitch that made him Jude's first footballing hero.

'We talk about footballing heroes, and my dad was like my first,' Jude told The FA in an interview.

'When you go and watch him play every week in non-League, you know it's not the Premier League or anything, but seeing the way that he played and the atmosphere, it made me fall in love with football so he was probably my first hero.

'After the first few times of going, I'd start to pay a bit more attention to the games and stuff, the atmosphere and he's scoring goals so you see him celebrating and stuff like that - you want that to be me.

'Growing up, he'd always give me tips on what I could do and now it gets to a certain age and it sort of flips and that's brilliant because we have that sort of relationship like father and son and then as I got older, like coach and player.'

Jude broke into the England side ahead of last year's Covid-delayed Euro 2020 championships, making history as the tournament's youngest-ever player, and is now a regular first choice. His brother Jobe, 17, is also a professional on Birmingham City's books.

Their father hung up his boots at the age of 41 in 2017 and is believed to have retired from the police. He declines to discuss his son's achievements.

Jude told The Guardian in 2020 how his mother Denise took him to watch his father play: 'It's where I started to get that love for football. I think you can see in the way I play that I've watched the game from a young age.

'That non-league style of toughness and being gritty when you need to be... I do think that comes from watching my dad play – even though he never tackled!'

Leamington FC chairman Jim Scott described Jude's father as a 'goal machine', adding: 'He was in great demand, a good player who was extremely dedicated, particularly when you consider his demanding career. [He] could have played at a higher level. You can see where Jude gets his talent from.'

Jude, who plays his club football with Borussia Dortmund, says his mother Denise stays with him in Germany where she keeps him 'grounded'.

'My mum keeps me grounded, she's always there for me and I can't thank her enough for everything she's done for me,' he added during an interview with The FA in May 2021.

Despite his multi-million pound contract, Jude has tried to downplay his prowess.

He told NLP in 2016: 'I've always said I'm not that great a player. I think I owe my team-mates over the years a lot more than they owe me.'

Kane hailed a 'really good day' for the team, saying on ITV1: 'It was really tough, knockout games are never easy.

'I think we've showed great maturity through the tournament, and 3-0 against a really good side, credit to the boys, the mentality was top from the beginning and we took our chances when they came.

'We feel good, we've got good runners, good players getting forward, and it's solid at the back, three clean sheets in a row is really important. A really good
