A Chelsea forward has sparked rumours of a breakup with his long-time girlfriend after the two started unfollowing each other on social media.

Chelsea star Cole Palmer and his influencer girlfriend, Connie Grace, have sparked breakup rumours after unfollowing each other on Instagram.

The couple, both 23, appear to have severed digital ties following Chelsea's 3-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup final.

Grace traveled to the US to support Palmer during the tournament, sharing photos from Miami, but was noticeably absent from the games themselves.

Palmer shone in the final, scoring two goals and providing an assist to secure the win for Chelsea. Grace remained silent on social media after the victory and wasn't present during the on-field celebrations.

Palmer & Grace’s Social Media Activity Heightens Speculation

Cole Palmer and Connie Grace have stopped following each other on social media.

Fueling speculation further, the pair are no longer following each other on Instagram, and Palmer's likes have reportedly disappeared from Grace's posts as per The Sun. The Manchester natives met as teenagers and went public with their relationship in November at the GQ Men of the Year Awards.

Grace runs a beauty salon in Stockport, while Palmer is currently enjoying a short break in S. Kitts and Nevis, his paternal grandfather's homeland, before Chelsea's pre-season training begins. Their relationship first came to light in July 2024 after they were spotted together off the coast of Ibiza.

Palmer and Chelsea will kick off their pre-season against Bayer Leverkusen on August 8, followed by a match against AC Milan on August 10. Their Premier League campaign begins at Stamford Bridge against Crystal Palace on August 17.
