Leah Williamson – captain of the England team and player for Arsenal – jetted off for a sweet summer holiday with rumoured girlfriend Elle Smith
The Lionesses are primed to take on Spain in the UEFA Women’s Euro Final 2025 – with captain Leah Williamson, 28, charged with leading her team to try and defeat the world champs.
The final will take place in Basel, Switzerland, and will see the Lionesses defend their massive Euro 2022 win.
With the last two games the England team played in this tournament featuring some dramatic, last-minute wins, the stakes couldn’t be higher for UK football fans – and the final is likely to keep pulses racing.
Before taking on the major challenge of the tournament, captain Leah Williamson made sure to take some much-needed rest and relaxation with a holiday in Spain – ensuring she was fully charged up and ready to go for the professional feat.
Leah went on the trip with former Miss USA Elle Smith, 27, who has long been rumoured to be the England captain’s girlfriend.
The model joined Leah – who posted a series of gorgeous snaps of her holiday on Instagram – for the break in the stunning Spanish island of Majorca.
While they were there, the pair and pals enjoyed the sunshine, went for dinners, lounged on yachts, listened to a piano player by candlelight, and gave paddle boarding a go.
Leah also included a video of herself undertaking some drills while she was away, clearly keen to keep up with her fitness regime ahead of the major tournament.
They looked to have had a great time during their trip, as Elle commented on the post, “same time next year? x” and Leah quickly replied, “yes please.”
Elle, who previously worked as a journalist for WHAS-TV in Kentucky, is signed to the iconic agency Wilhelmina Models, and after winning the beauty pageant Miss Kentucky in 2021, she went on to win the overall Miss USA competition the same year – and came in the top 10 for Miss Universe shortly after.
Earlier this year, Elle posted a sweet birthday tribute to Leah on her own Instagram page, of the pair chilling out on a sea float in the sunshine, and captioning it “Happy birthday my love x”.
Leah replied to the post with a series of emojis, including one of a blushing face hiding its smile – and a series of white hearts.
Elle’s page was quickly flooded with support, with several people noting that the birthday post seemed like something of a relationship “hard launch”.
When Leah, playing for Arsenal, won the Women’s Champions League back in May, Elle quickly posted her support of the football player, sharing a series of snaps. In one, Leah sat on Elle’s lap and showed off her medal, and in another, Elle held the trophy while Leah bit her medal, and the pair both beamed.
