Speculation surrounding the relationship between Jude Bellingham and Ashlyn Castro was cleared up after Terance Mann, the American model’s ex-boyfriend, denied the affair allegations.

The Real Madrid star is in a relationship with American model Ashlyn Castro, 27. The couple were spotted having lunch together in Madrid last month, sparking speculation in the media.

Insiders speak out

Their relationship has even been supported by Bellingham’s family. During Real Madrid’s 5-1 Champions League win over Red Bull Salzburg on January 22, Castro was seen in the VIP area at the Bernabéu, chatting happily with Bellingham’s mother, Denise, 56, and father, Mark, 48.

She was also seen giving Bellingham’s mother a warm hug, a clear sign that things are getting more serious between her and the England midfielder. Friends of the couple have revealed that they have been dating for the past few months after interacting on social media, although no one has officially confirmed it.

However, according to Instagram page Game, Set & Match, Castro allegedly began a relationship with Bellingham before she broke up with her ex-boyfriend. Sources say Castro and her ex-boyfriend broke up in November of last year, around the same time she began interacting with Bellingham on social media.

However, those close to Castro completely denied this rumor, and Terance Mann, guard of LA Clippers, also officially spoke out on TikTok Live to defend his ex-girlfriend.

“Ashlyn is a good girl, guys,” Terance Mann said. “I don’t understand why people are so critical of her. She didn’t do anything wrong, and Ash and I are perfectly fine.”

He insisted that the two had broken up a long time ago and that Castro had absolutely no intention of cheating on him with Bellingham. “Ninety percent of what I see online about Ash is false. Let her live her life,” Terance Mann said.

“We met through a friend. When I knew Ash, she had a career and was financially independent. She didn’t take advantage of anyone’s reputation,” the LA Clippers defender added, also expressing his discomfort when public opinion continuously attacked Castro.

“People are making a big deal out of it. Ash is not a gold digger, she did not cheat on me. We broke up a long time ago. Stop these baseless rumors!”, Terance Mann emphasized.

Castro was rumored to have had an affair with a Hollywood star.

Castro is no stranger to the entertainment industry. She has more than 140,000 followers on Instagram and has been rumored to be romantically linked to actor Michael B. Jordan and NBA star LaMelo Ball.

On TikTok, where she has about 30,000 followers, Castro regularly posts lip-sync videos, makeup tutorials and shows off her unique fashion style.

Bellingham was previously linked to model Laura Celia Valk in April last year, who was said to be “completely smitten” with the Real Madrid midfielder. However, last month she confirmed that she was still single, indirectly denying the rumours.

Now, with Terance Mann speaking up to clear up any misunderstandings, the relationship between Bellingham and Castro can escape unnecessary scandals and continue to develop more naturally.

From romantic lunches in Madrid to intimate moments at the Bernabéu, it seems Bellingham and Castro are truly happy together, despite all the speculation.
