Declan Rice is the target of vile chants about his girlfriend by Chelsea fans during the Arsenal clash – hours after she deleted her Instagram posts following abuse from humiliating trolls.

Declan Rice was targeted by Chelsea fans during Arsenal’s win over the Blues as his girlfriend faced more abuse.

Rice’s longtime partner, Lauren Fryer, deleted all of her Instagram photos after receiving an avalanche of insults online about her appearance.

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

The trolling made its way into the real world on Tuesday, however, with footage shared on X, formerly Twitter, showing Rice being the target of vile chants from Chelsea fans.

Footage filmed outside the Emirates on Tuesday showed a group of supporters appearing to chant “Declan Rice, your bird is a big bastard”.

Rice appeared to be preparing to take a corner in front of the club he played for as a youth between 2006 and 2013.

The England star ignored the chants, which repeated the insult three times.

Fryer was mocked for his appearance, with the first bullying beginning in December last year, when an anonymous account told midfielder Rice he “could do better”.

Recently, Rice was told he had “low standards” when it came to his relationship with Fryer, who is the mother of their 20-month-old son, Jude.

Fryer has since been vigorously defended by Rice fans over these comments. Speaking to X on Wednesday, one outraged fan wrote: “I honestly worry about the state of mind of some people. This is Lauren Fryer, Declan Rice’s girlfriend who has suffered so much online abuse recently.

Another posted: “A beautiful woman, a loving couple, with a young family. Some in this world need to take back control,” while a third shared: “Message of appreciation for this beautiful woman Lauren Fryer. We’re sorry to see that in 2024 women are still the subject of so many disgusting comments.
