Football superstar Jude Bellingham is accused of trying to make a move on NRL ace Nathan Cleary’s girlfriend Mary Fowler
- Real Madrid has reportedly split from girlfriend
- Fowler and Cleary looked loved up in Perth
- Fowler has since returned to England, with Bellingham quickly acting
NRL superstar Nathan Cleary has dominated rugby league but he may face some serious competition in his love life, with speculation swirling that England football superstar Jude Bellingham is making a move against Matildas chief executive Mary Fowler.
The duo have had a whirlwind romance Down Under in recent weeks as the Penrith Panthers halfback traveled to Perth to spend time with Fowler during the Olympic qualifiers.
Fowler has since traveled to England to rejoin Manchester City in the FA Women’s Super League after signing a four-year deal in March this year.

Cleary quickly took off his shirt during their date in the park when the pair were seen holding hands and cuddling
She has since posted a series of photos to Instagram, including one of her relaxing in a park, with the caption “To the small moments.”
Eagle-eyed followers then noticed that Bellingham ‘liked’ the series of photos very quickly, with one noting that the England star pressed the heart button just four minutes after Fowler posted them.
The post has since been liked by a host of Matildas teammates, Cleary himself and even a cheeky like from Broncos star Reece Walsh, who lost to Cleary and the Panthers in the NRL grand final.

Bellingham moved to Real Madrid this season on a big six-year contract and has established himself as one of the best young players in the world
Fowler’s followers have warned Cleary to be careful after seeing Bellingham like her post just minutes after she posted it
It remains unknown who took the photos of Fowler in the post, which also included photos of a sunset, a thumb with a love heart engraved on it, and a dog that bears more than a passing resemblance to Cleary’s own pet.
“Jude Bellingham liked this post within four minutes,” one enthusiastic observer wrote.
“Honey, drop it, Jude is right, thurrrrr,” another added.
Real Madrid signed Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund on a $217 million, six-year deal this season, and he has established himself as one of the best young stars in the world.
It has also reportedly meant that the 20-year-old has left his girlfriend.
Bellingham has reportedly been dating Ghanaian model Asantewa Chitty, although she has apparently kept the relationship private and not shared any photos of the player on her social media pages.
Fowler also posted this image of her thumb with some peeling skin that had formed the shape of a heart
Cleary has also since liked Fowler’s post, along with Bellingham, Matildas teammates and Brisbane Broncos star Reece Walsh
However, the star midfielder was spotted in a series of images on celebrity dating app Raya in June, shortly after announcing his move to Real Madrid.
The ex-Birmingham City player has also been linked to American TikToker Azra Mian.
However, The Sun has reported that Bellingham is completely focused on his game – and not on a new key player.
“Jude is all about football, that’s his main focus. But he still wants to meet someone to settle down with,” the source said.
‘He’s been in London to see friends before the season starts again. Jude is taking her time after the breakup.”
Meanwhile, Cleary is back in Australia preparing for another pre-season with Penrith after shedding the knee brace he wore during his time with Fowler in Perth.
The Panthers playmaker suffered a suspected ligament tear just nine minutes into the NRL grand final.
Cleary also previously posted a photo on social media of the dislocated finger he suffered on the eve of the preliminary final.
