Amber Davies, the British reality TV star, has revealed that England footballer Jesse Lingard has secretly messaged her. Davies who won last year's edition of hit Brit show, Love Island, said Lingard “slid into her DMs [direct messages]”.

During an interaction with host Roman Kemp on the Capital FM's breakfast show alongside fellow TV star Olivia Attwood, the topic veered towards football. A picture of midfielder Lingard, who scored in England's recent 6-1 win over Panama at the World Cup in Russia, was out up. To this, Davies replied, “He might have slid into my DMs.”
