Jude Bellingham has given fans an insight into his family’s Christmas activities which has seen them celebrate the holidays in Sunderland.
The England and Real Madrid superstar travelled to the North East to watch his brother, Jobe, play for the Black Cats over the festive period and stay with his family whilst Los Blancos are on their winter break.

First, Bellingham joined Sunderland fans and despaired as his brother’s side lost 3-0 to Coventry. Then, he got to celebrate with them as Michael Beale got his first win as Sunderland manager with a 1-0 victory over Hull on Boxing Day.
But aside from watching his brother and Sunderland, Bellingham, his brother and his parents have been up to plenty of other bits of festive fun.
Posting on his Instagram, the Real Madrid midfielder uploaded a photo dump of him and his family’s time on Wearside, starting with a photo of him and his brother with Christmas cracker hats on their heads.
“Christmas break well spent,” was the caption the Three Lions star went for to sum up his time up north.
Snaps with his mum, Denise, came next, before Bellingham revealed what he’d gifted his dad, Mark.
From the looks of it, the 20-year-old doesn’t steer far away from getting what a man his age would usually buy for their parents – a good old VistaPrint pillow with a snap of him as a child and his dad plastered on it.
His dad looked pretty chuffed with it, too!

It looks as if his decision making when it comes to food is just as good as it is when he’s picking passes out on the pitch.
The highlight of the Instagram dump had to be Bellingham and his brother trying their hand at another sport, though.
First up, Jude uploaded a video of him giving a cricket simulator a go – he definitely has a mean swing on him.
The final slide shows Jobe appropriately having a go at darts, with the PDC World Championships going on as we speak.

There was no video of the youngster in action, but we’re sure he’s as good as hitting a bullseye as he is at finding the goal – he’s already got four goals to his name for the Black Cats.
Bellingham cam will certainly be on again should he travel to Rotherham to watch Sunderland in action once again on Friday.
