She will be leading the Lionesses at the Euros in three weeks but Leah Williamson has made the most of her summer by jetting off to Majorca with close friend, and former Miss USA, Elle Smith.
The two women beamed as they soaked up the sun, went paddle boarding and dined out at high-end restaurants after growing close in recent months.
Ms Williamson and Ms Smith have been sharing photographs of one another – including one where they celebrated the England star’s Champions League win with Arsenal three weeks ago.
Since then, Ms Smith, 26, has also posted on her TikTok, showing them doing various challenges and showing off their holiday outfits.
Ms Williamson also posted snaps from their trip in which her pal commented: ‘Same time next year?’ to which Ms Williamson replied: ‘Yes.’
Although it’s unclear how they were introduced, they seem to have known each other for some months as Ms Smith posted a video of Ms Williamson’s 28th birthday on March 29 saying ‘Happy Birthday my love x’. It showed them floating on a platform in the sea on another holiday.
Ms Smith is based in New York City and London and is signed to the Wilhelmina Models agency.
With over seven million views on TikTok and 122,000 followers on Instagram, she has worked with brands including Kim Kardashian’s Skims, Adidas and Sol De Janeiro.
