Even though his girlfriend might be overweight, it is not ideal for anybody to shame somebody on their body structure. The incident has sparked conversations about the responsibility of social media platforms to address and prevent online abuse. Arsenal fans are contributing to the broader movement against online harassment.
Who is Declan Rice’s girlfriend?
Declan Rice has been in a committed relationship with his childhood sweetheart, Lauren Fryer. Rice’s dedication is evident in both his love life and his soccer career. The couple has been together for a long time, but they have not yet gotten married.
This is because they are still young and have many years ahead of them, so they are taking things slowly for now. This year, the pair will be celebrating their 9th anniversary together. Lauren Fryer is often seen supporting Rice from the stands during his matches for Arsenal and England, and she shares motivational messages on Instagram after his team’s significant victories or losses.
Lauren has a single child with his partner Rice. Although Rice has not officially announced the birth of his child, he did share a photograph of a tattoo featuring his newborn son’s name. The tattoo exhibited the name “Jude” alongside the date 07.08.2022.
