Rebekah Vardy was all smiles as she joined husband Jamie to help his team celebrate their promotion to the Premier League.
The 42-year-old reality star joined her 37-year-old husband - and had her kids in tow - as they joined hundreds others in celebrating Leicester City. The football team will play in the Premier League next season after securing promotion thanks to an away win at Preston North End on Monday.
Rebekah donned a football strip and joined Jamie on a bus which drove through Leicester city centre and past huge crowds. The mum-of-five waved to the crowds and took snaps for social media showing her cheers-ing with a drink and throwing herself into the celebrations.

They wed in 2016 and share daughters Sofia, 10, and Olivia, four, and son Finley, seven, together. She also has a 19-year-old daughter named Megan a son named Taylor, 14, from previous relationships. She is also step-mum to Jamie’s daughter, Ella, who he shares with an ex.
In the past, Rebekah has said that she has tried to deter her kids from following in Jamie’s footsteps to become a professional footballer. She told The Times back in 2018: “Taylor wants to be a footballer and I told him ‘mate, you’re not going to make it as a footballer. It’s not in a million years going to happen’. And do you know why I tell him that? Because there’s such a small chance he will actually make it. OK, Jamie did, but if he hadn’t, there was nothing for him to fall back on… I refuse to let my son grow up without something to fall back on.”

The supportive wife has also explained that sometimes following Jamie around the world when he plays football internationally isn’t as fun as some might expect. Indeed, she said being in Russia for the 2018 FIFA World Cup was a bore-fest. Opening up about the event at the time, the Dancing On Ice star complained: “All the other World Cups that I have experienced have been back home on the television, and when you’re actually there where it’s taking place… well, there is no atmosphere. You lose the whole buzz, the excitement, the sense of the whole country getting behind the team.
“I was being sent videos from mates in England and I was like ‘God, I wish I was back home’. The stadiums were alright but obviously the English fans had been put off travelling to Russia because of the anticipation of friction and trouble. But I didn’t see any of that. There was nothing. Everyone was really well behaved.”
