Cole Palmer and his girlfriend are rumoured to have parted ways just days after Chelsea's historic CWC triumph.

This development comes hot on the heels of Chelsea's emphatic victory over PSG in the Club World Cup final.

Fans were quick to pick up on the lack of mutual follows, but equally telling was Connie’s conspicuous absence from Chelsea’s title celebrations at the MetLife Stadium.

She is claimed to have initially accompanied Palmer to the U.S. and was present for the final — yet she didn’t join the on-field festivities after their triumph. 

Cole Palmer was named the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup best player.

Her absence has led many to wonder if tensions began during the tournament itself.

Meanwhile, Palmer touched down in St Kitts and Nevis for a warm summer holiday, where he received a hero’s welcome in his paternal grandfather’s Caribbean homeland. 

Connie, however, did not accompany him.

 Connie previously opened up about their long-term relationship, revealing that they met when they were both 17.  

Speaking in the Amazon Prime documentary titled ‘England’s Lions: A New Generation’, the Manchester-based manicurist and influencer spoke candidly about their relationship, describing Palmer as “warm and cuddly” and admitting, “you’ve got to love him.”

She said: “We met when we were 17. I think he knew me through mutual friends, so I think he probably had his eye on me. Oh, he's warm and cuddly. Well, with me, hopefully with no one else.”  

But now their relationship, believed to be approximately three years old, seems to have ended.
