As Jude Bellingham’s family got back together in Sunderland for Christmas, he shared a lot of pictures of them.
Jude, 20, and Jobe, 18, his younger brother, both got new contracts this summer, one with Real Madrid and the other with Newcastle.
The Bellingham family split up. Denise moved to Spain to live with Jude, while Mark moved to the North East to live with Jobe.
But because La Liga takes a two-week break in the winter, they could all spend the holidays together.
When Jude went to Jobe’s two Sunderland games before and after Christmas, he got to see his brother play in the Championship.
The Black Cats lost 3-0 at home to Coventry, but then they beat Hull 1-0 away from home.
But the family also took some well-earned time off while watching games.
Jude shared a bunch of pictures of himself and Jobe, dressed up in Christmas hats, taking selfies in the mirror and cuddling up to their mum.
They were also seen practicing darts on the oche and hitting at the cricket nets.
Mark was seen happy as he held a personalized pillow.
Jude was also seen eating pancakes and bacon in another shot.
“Christmas break well spent ▽” was written under the pictures by the England player.
Fans have also asked Real Madrid to sign Jobe, who has scored four goals and set up one since joining Sunderland.
Someone told them, “Bring him to Madrid.”
One added: “@jobebellingham come to Real Madrid, @judebellingham can agree with me correct .”
Jude has scored 17 goals and set up five others in 21 games for Real Madrid. He will play again on January 3 when Real Madrid plays Mallorca.
The big teams from Spain are ahead of Girona in La Liga by goal difference and seven points ahead of both Atletico Madrid and Barcelona.
Real also made it to the round of 16 in the Champions League by having a perfect record.
To get to the quarterfinals, they will play RB Leipzig.
