DECLAN RICE. He selected upscale dining with his family for the kindest of send-offs for Euro 2024.

The England midfielder appeared at ease, even signing autographs outside, as he dined with boyhood sweetheart Lauren Fryer and their 22-month-old son Jude.

They chose the football superstars’ café, London’s Novikov, ahead of the Three Lions’ dream tournament.

Other renowned players who have visited the Mayfair eatery include Wayne Rooney, John Terry, Harry Kane, Ronaldo, Neymar, and Paul Pogba.

Rice sported a dark-green helmet and a light-green hoodie as he cradled Jude and gazed around outside the venue, which offers a two-course lunch for £26.

However, he smiled heartily as he wrapped his arms around two supporters for a photo snapped by one of their pals.

The £115 million Arsenal player is one of England’s primary hopes for the Euros in Germany, thanks largely to his midfield partnership with Jude Bellingham.

Rice and Lauren have been together for more than eight years, and they are both young and talented.

They’ve been dating since they were youngsters and will welcome their first kid in August 2022.

Rice honored the occasion with a set of tattoos.His son’s name and birth date are inked, as well as Jude’s Leo star sign.

Rice and Lauren desire to keep their romance out of the spotlight.

However, an awful glimpse into their private life occurred two months ago.

Lauren erased all of her Instagram photos after being bullied by online trolls.

Rice now aims to make those unhappy social media types eat their words as he prepares to fly to Germany for the Euros following his family’s spectacular send-off.
