JUDE BELLINGHAM’s girlfriend seemed unimpressed by her man’s team as she watched from the stands in the Santiago Bernabeu.
Ashlyn Castro has been seen on a string of dates with the England star.
Now, he’s taken her to watch Real Madrid in action.
The stunning model sat with the midfielder and his family in the stands for the game against Girona.
Bellingham, himself, was sitting the match out as he serves a two-game suspension for an x-rated rant at a referee during a game.
But, she didn’t seem to enthralled at the action – throwing a cursory glance to the sky as he watched all the action.
Bellingham’s mum Denise could be seen in the snap noticing Ashlyn’s disinterest in the match.
The pair started dating after they began liking each other’s social media posts.
ude was said to have been particularly drawn to one in November featuring pictures of Ashlyn in a low-cut dress laying on a bed.
She is from Los Angeles where Jude and Three Lions team-mate Trent Alexander-Arnold went on holiday after the Euros in July.
Ashlyn, who has 252,000 Instagram followers, was rumoured to have previously dated Creed actor Michael B Jordan and was linked with basketball player LaMelo Ball, 23.
She suffered heartbreak in July 2021 when her dad died from Covid, aged 59. In a touching tribute, she described him as “superman to me”.
Ashlyn previously met Bellingham’s mum Denise and dad Mark in the Spanish capital last month.
She also joined them in Real Madrid’s Wags and family box for a Champions League match against RB Salzburg, which the home team won 5-1.
The American beauty even had time to embrace Denise with a hug.
WALES icon Dan Biggar has made a big prediction about what the future holds for Sam Prendergast.
The Ireland out-half has started all three of Ireland’s Six Nations games to date during the 2025 campaign, including yesterday’s underwhelming 28-17 win over lowly Wales.
And the former Wales out-half Biggar has been impressed with the the young Leinster star.
22-year-old Prendergast has earned widespread praise for his performances for club and country since Johnny Sexton’s retirement.
And Toulon ace Biggar reckons the player will start for Andy Farrell’s British and Irish Lions in the tests first match of their Summer Tour of Australia.
Speaking on the Rugby Pod, Biggar said: “This is a big statement, but I think Sam Prendergast will start that first Test for the Lions against the Wallabies.
“I’m saying that based on the belief that Ireland will win the championship and potentially the Grand Slam, and that Leinster will be right in the mix for the big URC matches and in Europe.
“I’ve been really impressed with how Sam has adapted to international rugby. He looks assured and positive.
“For me, in a Lions year, it’s not just about who has the best reputation or skill set—it’s about who is playing the best rugby, performing consistently, and playing with confidence.
“I believe Sam will be involved in big games and will only continue to improve.”
Meanwhile, The Lions face former Ireland boss Joe Schmidt and Australia in July and August during a three-test series.
Schmidt is set to leave his position after facing Andy Farrell’s British & Irish Lions side.
He will leave his role with Rugby Australia (RA) after the confirmed they will begin their search for a new head coach immediately.
The former Leinster boss agreed to stay on longer than his original contract to host the Lions in the three-game test series.
But he will officially then quit the Wallaby role to care for his son Luke, who battles severe Epilepsy.
It means a new head coach will take charge for the end-of-year tour and lead the team into the World Cup on home soil.
Speaking to Stan Sport, Schmidt admitted that while he would have loved to stay longer, stepping away was the right call.
He said: “It’s been an absolute privilege to work with this squad. It’s been a whirlwind but also a lot of fun.”
“It’s disappointing for me, but I know it’s the right decision. If I stayed on after the Lions series.
“I’d have to fly to Johannesburg for the Rugby Championship straight after. That’s not the best way to transition.”
EASYJET passengers heading to Europe next week have been warned of upcoming walkouts which is set to spark flight chaos.
Brits heading to Italy on Monday, 24 February can expect serious disruptions, as pilots launch a strike between 12pm and 4pm.
Strikes could affect flights, trains and buses.
EasyJet said it plans on continuing operations as usual but told customers to check the status of their flights before arriving at the airport.
The airline said: “We plan to operate our full flying programme but we advise customers travelling on 24 February to check the status of their flights on our Flight Tracker page,
“Or manage their bookings using our disruption portal on our mobile app or website.”
The workers are demanding a hike in pay, following growing frustration over contract renewals that they say haven’t been properly addressed.
Anton Radchenko, an expert in aviation, said the protests could lead to widespread travel chaos across Europe.
If a flight departs later than planned, this will have a “domino effect” causing other flight to take off late too.
He told the Express: “If a flight departs later than planned, this can have a domino effect as far as other flights’ departure slots are concerned – causing them to take off late too.
“Strikes like these can have an impact on flights across the world.”
He added that as the summer months creep in, striking will become more prevalent as it’s a period when industrial action can have a greater impact on operations.
If your flight is cancelled or delayed due to industrial action you may be entitled to compensation.
This comes as Brits flying from Turkey learnt they will finally be able to get hundreds of pounds back in compensation if their flight is delayed.
The new rules apply to Turkish-based airlines like Turkish Airlines, Pegasus Airlines and Sun Express.
What are my rights if my flight is cancelled or delayed?
Under UK law, airlines have to provide compensation if your flight arrives at its destination more than three hours late.
If you’re flying to or from the UK, your airline must let you choose a refund or an alternative flight.
You will be able to get your money back for the part of your ticket that you haven’t used yet.
So if you booked a return flight and the outbound leg is cancelled, you can get the full cost of the return ticket refunded.
But if travelling is essential, then your airline has to find you an alternative flight. This could even be with another airline.
When am I not entitled to compensation?
The airline doesn’t have to give you a refund if the flight was cancelled due to reasons beyond their control, such as extreme weather.
Disruptions caused by things like extreme weather, airport or air traffic control employee strikes or other ‘extraordinary circumstances’ are not eligible for compensation.
Some airlines may stretch the definition of the “extraordinary circumstances” but you can challenge them through the aviation regulator the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
Will my insurance cover me if my flight is cancelled?
If you can’t claim compensation directly through the airline, your travel insurance may refund you.
Policies vary so you should check the small print, but a delay of eight to 12 hours will normally mean you qualify for some money from your insurer.
Remember to get written confirmation of your delay from the airport as your insurer will need proof.
If your flight is cancelled entirely, you’re unlikely to be covered by your insurance.
Airlines operating in Turkey must now provide financial compensation when flights are disrupted because of technical or operational reasons.
Passengers on domestic routes that are delayed by more than three hours will be able to claim compensation worth €100 (£82).
Compensation for passengers flying internationally is a little higher.
Depending on the flight distance, holidaymakers will be able to claim either €250 (£207), €400 (£331) or €600 (£497).
