‘It’s our day today’: Olivia Culpo hails her man Christian McCaffrey as she stays up late while on her London vacation to watch him and the 49ers beat the Eagles in NFC showdown

Despite being all the way across the Atlantic in London, Olivia Culpo stayed up late to support her man Christian McCaffrey in his latest NFL game on Sunday.

McCaffrey was once again in fine form as the 49ers dismantled the Philadelphia Eagles, with the running back racking up 93 yards and a touchdown in the game.

His girlfriend – and the former Miss Universe – could not be in attendance this week, but despite the time difference in the UK she made sure to stay up and watch her future husband sealing another win in his impressive season. 

Taking to her Instagram, Culpo initially asked her 5.3million followers for recommendations on where best to watch the game – enquiring as to whether there were any good pubs that show NFL games.

Instead, it appears she opted to stay in her hotel room, soon sharing the television channel for other fans to join her in watching McCaffrey’s game.

The American also commented how much she was enjoying hearing British accents talking about the NFL – with Sky Sports’ coverage in the UK fronted by Neil Reynolds.

The game will have finished shortly after midnight in London, but Culpo was still awake to watch the end, and shared her thoughts alongside a screenshot of the latter stages, noting: ‘It’s our day today.’

The Niners won the NFC showdown 42-19 – a huge blow-out win in what could turn out to be a practice run of the NFC Championship game in a couple of months.

Culpo is a regular attendee at McCaffrey’s games, often donning her 49ers merch to watch from the sidelines in San Francisco.

She recently headed to Cabo San Lucas with her friends on her bachelorette party, where McCaffrey surprised her with a firework display on their final night.

All documented on Instagram, Culpo reacted with complete shock and burst into tears at the gesture, as fans eagerly await their wedding.

For now, though, McCaffrey’s full focus will be on the Niners’ season as they look to go all the way to the Super Bowl with a stacked roster of talent.

So far this season, they are 9-3 and have a very soft schedule – facing the likes of Seattle, Arizona and Baltimore in the coming weeks – as they look to tie up the NFC and go into the playoffs as No. 1 seed.
