England striker Jamie Vardy shows he’s a master of the boatiful game on holiday in Dubai for anniversary with wife Rebekah


DIVING may be frowned upon on the football pitch — but England striker Jamie Vardy shows he’s a master of the art at sea.

The 30-year-old goal king displayed enviable technique as he plunged into the waves from a yacht during a sunshine family holiday in Dubai.

And as Jamie scored top marks for his energetic style, wife Rebekah showed her approval by looking on lovingly from the deck.

The mum of four, 34, showed off her own stunning form as she sunbathed in a light grey camouflage bikini before enjoying a jetski ride with a friend.

She and Jamie also took time to play with their kids on the Middle Eastern break, which marked the first anniversary of their wedding.

The relaxing holiday followed a hectic footie season for Jamie and his Lei­cester City team.

The forward was accused of helping to get Premier League title-winning Foxes’ manager Claudio Ranieri fired in February amid a dressing room revolt.

He de­nies the allegations.

Rebekah was later attacked by angry football supporters as she drove home.

She was also trolled online over her “mum tum” following the birth of the couple’s son Finley this year.

Jamie struggled for form early in the campaign — but returned to his best after caretaker boss Craig Shakespeare took over at Leicester.

However, critics accused him of entering “Dive of the Season” when he fell to the ground following a light tackle during England’s friendly with Germany in March.

Manchester City star Samir Nasri also labelled him a “cheat” over a head-butting incident that led to the 29-year-old France international getting a red card during their game against the Foxes.

But out in Dubai all Jamie’s dives were 100 per cent legitimate.

And the only thing he was head- over-heels for was his missus.
