and his girlfriend  enjoyed a rare public outing together at England's World Cup semi-final match on Wednesday. 

The couple were among the many celebrity fans who had jetted off to the city in the US to watch England take on Argentina.

And during the fiery match, Louis, 34, and Zara, 29, were seen cheering as they watched  score a goal.

But it was Argentina who secured their spot in the final after defeating England 2–1 in a dramatic second half.

Louis, known for his love of football, has been following England's journey in the World Cup since their first match against Croatia last month.

It comes after Zara confessed she struggles to sleep when she is apart from Louis, as the couple juggle the challenges of a long-distance romance.

She has been proudly supporting the singer on his solo tour, but her own work commitments have meant she's been forced to fly back to the UK on several occasions.

Zara has now shared that due to the lengthy flights to and from the US, she can spend hours lying awake in bed when she's away from her partner Louis.

The couple started dating in March 2025, after she split from presenter after five years together. 

Speaking in her latest video, Zara said: 'It is really, really strange. I filmed three shows in the space of a month and I've been to America and back. That's actually insane when you think about it. 

'I would genuinely say my sleep situation, especially this last couple of weeks, has been beyond horrific. I was thinking the other day, this must be what it feels like when you're in the newborn trenches or when you have a child.

'This is the second time in the space of seven nights that I actually have not slept the whole night.

'Like when I say not slept the whole night, I mean I haven't had one second of sleep. I have laid there the entire night. 

'I'm so used to being in bed with my partner as well, we're always together, so when we're not together, and I'm filming somewhere, and I feel a bit discombobulated and I'm all feeling all over the shop, and then he's not there, and I sometimes just lose slight bearings of where I am and I don't have him with me.

But she inadvertently sparked wild cheating rumours among Louis's notoriously fickle fanbase after Essex gave her a parting kiss on the cheek as they exited a wrap party. 

The innocent exchange has also resulted in the emergence of an unsavoury online deepfake featuring Zara and her co-star locked in a passionate embrace. 

Fans subsequently leapt to the TV personality's defence after her social media channels were flooded with unfounded accusations of infidelity. 

The TV personality is thought to have struck up a friendship with Joey while filming Cooking With The Stars.

A source close to the former TOWIE star told The Sun: 'Zara and Joey grew close during filming and have become good friends.

'They got on really well but it's all very innocent. There's nothing romantic there between them.'
