Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood shares rare message for footballer

Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood has showed her support for the Manchester City star ahead of his team’s much-anticipated Champions League final  match against Inter Milan in Turkey on Saturday.

Model Sasha, 27, took to Instagram to repost Man City’s promotional poster ahead of the game, captioning the image: ‘Come on @mancity,’ along with four blue heart emojis.

Footballer Jack, also 27, and his teammates will take on Inter Milan in the Champions League final, with the UK club hoping to win the competition for the first time ever.

The side will complete their treble if they beat the Italian team, after winning the Premier League and F.A Cup earlier this year.

Blonde beauty Sasha and sportsman Jack first met at St Peter’s Roman Catholic School in Solihull and began dating at the age of 15.

Influencer Sasha is often spotted supporting her beau from the side-lines and even flew out to Qatar last year to support Jack as he played for England at the World Cup, alongside his family.

While they are currently putting on a harmonious display, Jack was rumoured to have dated actress Emily Atack and model Amber Rose Gill behind Sasha’s back.

And, while Sasha has not spoken out about the speculation, Jack attempted to pour flame on any tales.

Meanwhile Sasha said she received ‘200 death threats a day’ while the England ace was playing in Euro 2020, many of them from teenage girls.

Sasha said she was targeted by sick internet trolls who sent her messages like ‘I hope you get cancer and die’ and ‘I hope you die in a car crash’ during the tournament.

Others, many of them apparently young women, declared that they wanted to ‘plan her murder’ and said: ‘I’ve never hated a woman so much.

Speaking on her YouTube channel about the shocking abuse she received, she said: ‘I was receiving 200 death threats a day. I’m not exaggerating when I say that. I had so many messages every single day. I still get them now, all day every day.’

Sasha said she was targeted via both TikTok and Instagram – the latter of which came under fire in July after England stars Bukayo Saka, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho were targeted by racist trolls.

She said: ‘Things have obviously blown up over the Euros, but I never thought in a million years it would ever be this bad.

‘It just kind of blows my mind how nasty people can be for no reason whatsoever.

‘I’ve always been quite a strong person, I’ve always been very good at blocking out people’s opinions. But it’s on a whole other level.’

She added: ‘It’s just crazy. It’s the nasty messages about my appearance, people’s opinions. What are you all doing? It’s embarrassing.

‘You hear people talking about trolling, but I never realised how bad it actually was. The scary thing is, it’s young girls.

‘I’d go on these girls’ accounts who have sent me stuff and they’re 13 or 14. It’s so sad. I try to put it down to age but then I think when I was that age I never sent a message like that.

‘I think it’s so toxic, social media, and it’s really sad these generations have grown up thinking that it’s OK to say things like that.

‘Why are you doing it? Please ask yourself why.

‘If you’re one of those people who goes out of your way to make a fake account or to send a horrible ­message, wishing someone was dead or talking about their appearance, or talking about their personal life, why, what are you getting out of it?’

Sasha said the messages were ‘horrible’ and left her feeling ‘so anxious’, adding: ‘I didn’t ask for any of that, didn’t ask for anything to be put out there, but it’s out there, isn’t it, and I’m just going to continue to carry on as normal.’

Though Sasha and Jack had initially managed to keep their relationship under-wraps, rumours began to circulate about a possible romance after she was spotted supporting him during England’s Euro 2020 games at Wembley.

Jack has reportedly been keen to keep Sasha out of the spotlight. But a source last week described Sasha as Jack’s ‘secret weapon off the pitch’ and that she ‘keeps him grounded’.
