Rebekah Vardy has settled fans concerns after a blended family Christmas snap was missing one of her five children.
The Vardy family wore matching pyjamas as Rebekah shared a photo of herself, footballer husband Jamie and four of their children on Christmas day.
The six family members wore red and black striped sleepwear, and stood in front of a tree, with a huge nutcracker in the background too.
The couple share Sofia, seven, Finley, four, and Olivia, two. Rebekah is also mother to daughter Megan, 17, from a previous relationship who Jamie recently adopted.
And she has son Taylor, 11, from another relationship with lower league footballer Luke Foster.
Rebekah is also a step-mum to Ella, 11 - Jamie's daughter from a previous relationship with Emma Daggett.
Ella and Taylor didn’t feature in the snap and while it’s not unusual for Jamie’s daughter to be absent, fans were concerned that preteen Taylor was “missing” from the festive family snap.
After Rebekah posted the picture to her Instagram, concerned fans took to the comments section to express their alarm at Taylor’s absence.
“Gorgeous family …. One child missing?” a fan asked.
But Rebekah was quick to address worries, writing a rare reply.
“Yes he’s with his Dad,” she said alongside a smiley face emoji.
“Thanks for the reply Becks. Megs is your double,” the fan gushed in response.
Rebekah met Luke in 2007 when he was a defender for Conference team Oxford United but their relationship didn't last.
Luke claimed he struggled to deal with her demands during their relationship and her relentless quest for stardom left him skint.
Recalling their early days, Luke said they got on well and Becky looked after him but she enjoyed life’s luxuries.
They bought a stunning townhouse in Northampton with an "extortionate" mortgage, but things turned sour when Luke transferred to League Two side Mansfield Town.
"Becky liked the finer things in life. She wanted the biggest house on the street, expensive handbags. She drove my Merc, I had a Picasso. She wouldn’t even let me drive my own car," said Luke in 2017.
"I’d pay for things I couldn’t really afford. I’d get another credit card... eventually it all came crumbling down."
Among Luke’s claims were that Becky banned him from going on a trip to Las Vegas to celebrate a promotion and she refused to work in the clothes shop they owned together.
The pair split up in 2013 and it was one of their most amicable times as they put the interests of their son first.
He claimed Becky told him she had "upgraded" by moving onto Leicester striker Jamie.
But Luke claimed he was relieved to be free from his ex and actually felt sorry for Jamie because she likes to be in complete control.
"I was kind of relieved. I thought ‘thank God’, she’s off my hands,” said Luke, who admitted he "actually feels sorry for Jamie," he said.
"I feel sorry for him because it’s all about control with Becky. It’s my way or the highway with her. I fell out with my mum for six months while with Becky. It was over something trivial but I took Becky’s side. My mum was mortified."
However, Rebekah hit back at Luke’s claims in a resolute response when they were made back in November 2017 before she went into the I’m A Celebrity jungle.
In a statement released to the Sunday Mirror, her representatives said: “It’s upsetting Luke felt the need to sell yet another untrue story on the mother of his seven year old son.
“He has already made these claims via a friend in another newspaper over 18 months ago and Mrs Vardy made it very clear then she had separated from Mr Foster months before meeting Jamie Vardy, although as a good mother she kept their family together in the same house for another couple of months so that the children had a ‘normal’ Christmas without being uprooted and disrupted.
"There are many reasons why their relationship broke down but prior to leaving for Australia this month Mrs Vardy was threatened by Mr Foster with the selling of stories, yet she advised us that she would choose not to comment directly about Mr Foster as he is the father of her son and she cares more about her son’s well being and privacy than she does in publicly putting Mr Foster’s name alongside a list of his wrongdoings in the past.
"Mr Foster has a new girlfriend and a new baby, he should put his efforts into focusing on them instead of still trying to hurt Mrs Vardy and in turn hurt his son who will no doubt hear about this story at school."
