Declan Rice's girlfriend Lauren Fryer deletes all of her pictures after cruel bullying over her appearance - as she is supported by Love Island star

Declan Rice's long-term girlfriend Lauren Fryer has deleted all of her Instagram pictures after receiving a barrage of abuse online over her appearance.

Lauren, 25, who is the childhood sweetheart of Arsenal player Declan Rice, also 25, wiped all posts from her Instagram page in recent days after finding herself the target of cruel online trolls.

She was taunted for her appearance, with the bullying first starting in December last year when an anonymous account told England international team member Declan he 'could do better'.

Recently, Declan was told he had 'low standards' for being in a relationship with Lauren, who is the mother to their 20-month-old son, Jude.

While Lauren still has 64,000 followers on Instagram and has kept her profile public rather than private, she has deleted all her pictures and videos amid the abuse, prompting reality star Liberty Poole, 24, to speak out.

Television personality Liberty, who appeared on the seventh series of Love Island in 2022 and Love Island All Stars earlier this year, wrote on her Instagram Stories: 'I think she's beautiful this is crazy. 

'What happened to celebrating different body types and embracing how we are all individually made. 

'Beauty standards these days are unrealistic and everyone's gone mad because of social media. 

'I'm going to keep preaching about it till I die. Time for change, this can't continue.'

Sportsman Declan has been romantically involved with Lauren for nearly eight years, but the couple prefer to conduct their relationship away from the public eye.

In August 2022, he appeared to confirm the birth of his first child with partner Lauren by revealing a tattoo dedicated to a newborn boy during a game when he played for West Ham United. 

He prompted speculation at the time that he had welcomed a son, named Jude, with his long-term girlfriend earlier that month by exposing a tattoo of the child's name and apparent birth date - August 7.

Jude's star-sign, Leo - characterised as a symbol of self-confidence and attractiveness - also featured within the delicate inking on then West Ham captain Rice's lower left arm.

Despite a preference for privacy, the couple let their hair down during a rare public appearance at the Reading Festival in 2021.

They were pictured rubbing shoulders with notorious former Oasis hellraiser Liam Gallagher following his headline performance at the annual event.

Rice had previously admitted that his long-term girlfriend is jealous of his bond with Chelsea ace Mason Mount - a childhood friend from their time together at the west London club's academy.

He told The Sun: 'My missus is quite worried. I’m genuinely being serious. She’s quite worried. Oh she’s just always: "You two . . . you love him more than you love me". 

'Honestly. We just get it in the neck all the time. But they need to understand the friendship.'

The footballer joined the famed West Ham Academy as a child and studied at the Robert Clack School, in the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham, the largest secondary school in Europe.

When he was crowned Young Player of the Year at the London Football Awards, she wrote on social media: 'Couldn't be more proud of my Dec winning young player of the year. You deserve everything and more.'

When Lauren celebrated her 19th birthday, Rice wrote on his Instagram account: 'Happy 19th birthday to my gorgeous girlfriend Lauren Fryer. 

'Looking forward to making many more memories with you, I love you.'

Lauren isn't the only love of West Ham defender Declan Rice's life - she shares his affections with their adorable Cockapoo Raffa.

It's believed the couple welcomed the cute pup into their after a romantic trip to Paris.

Last month Harry Styles and James Corden threw a party to celebrate Declan claiming his 50th cap during England's 2-2 stalemate with Belgium. 

The Arsenal midfielder was also rewarded with the captain's armband for the friendly tie at Wembley, in a gesture that Rice described as leaving him 'speechless'. 

When Gareth Southgate let him know that he would be leading the side out against Domenico Tedesco's side, Rice said that he 'stood up, shook his hand, gave him a hug and said "thank you so much".'

'Since I've come into the side, he's put his trust and belief in me,' Rice added. 

And with cause for celebration, Corden - a vocal West Ham fan - and superstar Styles decided to commemorate the night in some style. 

Choosing A-list hotspot Chiltern Firehouse as their location, the trio partied until 4am before heading out into the early morning, in a party which included international team-mates James Maddison and Jordan Henderson. 

As well as a party hosted in his honour, Rice was also gifted a pair of bespoke adidas boots from fellow ex-Hammer Frank Lampard ahead of the tie. 

Former England midfielder Lampard - who scored 29 goals in 106 caps for England between 1999 and 2014 - met up with Rice in collaboration with Adidas ahead of the game to present him with a one-of-a-kind pair of boots.

The design of the adidas Copa boot included the colours of England - red, white and blue - with a special 50 caps message on the side, while the national flag was also emblazoned across the bespoke design.

When presenting Rice with the boots, Lampard shared a few words with the Arsenal man and hailed him for reaching the milestone.

'Declan shouldn’t underestimate this achievement,' he said. 'Every kid playing football growing up dreams of playing for their country, so to hit 50 caps is something very special.

'I am excited to see what the summer brings for him and this young team going into the Euros.'

Rice echoed these thoughts and added: 'It is a massive achievement for me to reach this milestone.

'Those close to me, know how much playing for my country means, so to hit 50 caps is incredible. I am excited to wear my new boots on the field to celebrate the moment.'

At just 25, Rice is the fifth-youngest national team player to reach the milestone, behind boldfaced names such as Wayne Rooney, Michael Owen, and Raheem Sterling. 

But the player was unable to see out a win on his half-century, after England fell behind the visitors twice before seeing out a late draw through gritted teeth.
