Rachel Riley

The co-presenter of Countdown is a huge Manchester United fan - a passion passed down from her dad, who is originally from Salford. The blonde beauty has worked with the club in the past, hosting their player of the season awards, and once presented a programme on their club channel, MUTV.

Helen Flanagan

The long-time Corrie star adopted Celtic as her club after former fiancée Scott Sinclair joined the club in 2016, even joining him on the pitch to celebrate winning the Scottish Premiership, before he departed in 2020. She's since remained a big backer of the Bhoys.

The gorgeous media personality has been an Everton fan for decades and can usually be seen supporting the Blues at Goodison Park, as well as travelling to away games when she can. She also loves wearing an Everton top and little else for her fans on social media.

The Bristol native was surprisingly revealed as a West Ham fan last year when a video of the model dancing in a Hammers top went viral on social media, and she's since been seen cheering on David Moyes' men at the London Stadium.

Christine Lampard

Perhaps the most obvious one on this list, the former Daybreak and One Show host turned Loose Women star is now a devout Chelsea fan, partly inspired we would guess by her marriage to the club's record goalscorer, Frank Lampard.

Carol Vorderman

The iconic ex-Countdown host has been a Manchester United fan since the 1960s, admitting: "If you were Catholic and from the north west, you either supported Everton or Man Utd." She's also a big rugby fan and has been regularly spotted in the stands supporting her beloved Wales wearing skin-tight Dragons tops.

Laura Woods

The TNT Sports presenter is a well-known Arsenal fan and has certainly made no qualms surrounding her fandom for the Premier League side - including posting this selfie when supporting the Gunners at Wembley. She even managed to have a dig at Spurs when interviewing Bayern Munich star Harry Kane.

Cheryl Cole

The Geordie pop superstar once married to Ashley Cole was born and bred in Newcastle, so it's no surprise where her allegiances lie. She was even gifted a Magpies top with her name on the back during her time as a judge on The X Factor.

Holly Willoughby

The former This Morning host's devotion to Arsenal is no secret - she once appeared in a Gunners kit on Soccer AM. The blonde beauty was in attendance at the Emirates for Arsene Wenger's last home game in charge, when she met the Frenchman, and has posed with an even bigger Arsenal legend, Gunnersaurus.

Michelle Keegan

Much like Carlos Tevez, former Coronation Street and current Fool Me Once star Michelle Keegan has previously shown love for both Manchester United AND Manchester City. Now the Stockport-born beauty claims she's firmly a Citizen, but she's also confessed she can't wait to visit Celtic Park and once revealed she was a big Hoops fan because of her dad and grandad.
