Last year, Ollie received his first England call-up from head coach Gareth Southgate for their first World Cup qualifiers against San Marino, Albania and Poland.
Celebrating the news on Instagram, Ellie shared a photo of herself sitting on her beau’s lap with the caption, “I love you and I’m sooo proud of you.”
He rewarded Southgate by scoring a goal after winning his first international match in San Marino’s 5–0 defeat at Wembley on 24 March.
Ollie scored an impressive 12 club goals after moving from Brentford to the Premier League and this is his first call-up for an England side at any level.

Ollie made his name at Exeter City’s academy – a club in Newton Abbot, Devon, about 20 miles from where he was born and grew up.
After initially failing to secure a place in the club’s youth ranks at Under 9 level in 2003, he eventually did so with the U11s.
He then scored 30 goals for the U18s as they won the League Three South-West Division of the Professional U18 Development League in 2013-14.
Weston-super-Mare midfielder Jacob Cane recently opened up about his friend on BristolLive, calling Ollie ‘grounded’ and ‘a family man’.

He said, ‘He’s so down to earth, such a good boy. I recently watched his live interview in England and he said he wants to do it for his family.
“He has such a good family and I’m very happy for all of them because he works so hard and he deserves it.”
After a hectic few months on the field, Ellie seemed eager to spend some quality time with her boyfriend in November.
She posted another photo of herself and Ollie, writing, “So nice to have some time with my love after a crazy few months. Love you.’
