Rebekah Vardy was left fuming after her flight back to the UK was delayed, with the footballer’s wife blaming the hold-up on the arrival of US President Donald Trump
Donald Trump can now add footballer’s wife Rebekah Vardy to the extensive list of people he has annoyed across the world.
The US president landed at London Stansted airport on Air Force One on Tuesday evening before taking the Marine One helicopter to Winfield House in Regent’s Park, central London, where he stayed the night.
The American leader is being feted with a stay in Windsor Castle during his historic second state visit, where he will be hosted by the King and treated to a ceremonial welcome on Wednesday and later, a lavish state banquet.
But not everyone is rolling out the red carpet for Trump. Rebekah Vardy was less than impressed the president’s official jet in Europe thanks to his travel meddling with her own travel plans.
Rebekah, who is now splitting her time between the UK and Italy due to husband Jamie Vardy’s new job, took to social media on Tuesday night to voice her displeasure at seeing Trump was in town.
After sharing a slew of snaps of herself watching Jamie play for his new club Unione Sportiva Cremonese, an Italian Serie A club, the mum-of-five posted a picture of a shuttle bus at an airport and told her followers: “And back to the UK again [head blown emoji].”
The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star then returned to her Instagram Stories after the sun set to share an image of Trump’s Air Force One plane in the night sky, moaning: “Love a delayed flight courtesy of Donald [crying emoji].”
Before being irked by Trump, Rebekah was all smiles as she watched Jamie make his Cremonese debut on Monday night. The former England ad Leicester City striker failed to find the back of the net during his new team’s 0-0 draw at Hellas Verona.
Rebekah seemingly enjoyed the attention as she watched on from the stands – at one point taking a snap of the photographers on the pitch aiming their cameras at her as she settled into her new life as an Italian WAG.
Fresh from dampening Rebekah’s new La Dolce Vita lifestyle, Trump is set to rub shoulders with royalty today thank to the first full day of his state visit being confined to the private Windsor estate.
Prince William and Kate Middleton will play a key role in entertaining the president, who is known for his love of the royal family, and First Lady Melania Trump.
William and Kate will meet the American couple in the grounds of the Windsor estate later today. Camilla, Queen Consory – who spent Tuesday afternoon resting at Windsor Castle, having pulled out of attending the Duchess of Kent’s funeral on Tuesday after suffering from acute sinusitis – is said to be hopeful she will recover in time to attend the busy run of royal events including the glittering banquet.
The Prince and Princess of Wales are expected to escort Trump and his wife a short distance to see the King and Queen Consort for an open air greeting nearby.
