ENGLAND footie ace Kieran Trippier and his wife have been on separate holidays 800 miles apart with friends fearing they have split.
The Three Lions star, 33, was in Turkey while Charlotte, 34, posted pics from Greek isle Santorini.
A source said: “They’re not abroad together. It’s no secret their marriage has been rocky for a while.”
It also emerged that England team-mate Kyle Walker, his wife Annie Kilner and their children were also staying at the same resort as Kieran on a family trip.
That follows their own recent marriage problems after Kyle admitted cheating on Annie with influencer Lauryn Goodman.
We told last week how the Trippiers’ marriage is on the rocks following Charlotte snubbing Kieran by not going to watch any of his Euros games in Germany.

Charlotte has been openly sharing her holiday snaps online, posing in bikinis and figure-hugging dresses.
But we can reveal Newcastle star Kieran has been in Turkey.

A fellow holidaymaker posted a picture of his son on Instagram with Kieran at the Regnum Carya golf and spa resort in Belek, near Antalya.

The man also published a video of his son with Kyle Walker at the same hotel.
Sources confirmed Man City ace Walker and his wife Annie and their children had been staying at the £350-a-night five-star hotel at the same time as Kieran but have now returned home.
A source said: “Charlotte is clearly having a fabulous time in Santorini, wearing some very sexy dresses and showing off her incredible figure in bikinis.
“She has been updating her Instagram from there since last Saturday, putting up pictures and videos of her with her sister.
“People have been commenting on how very happy and hot she looks.
“Meanwhile, Kieran has been holidaying separately in Turkey around the same time. He had time to take a holiday after the Euros, but is not with his wife abroad.
“It’s no secret their marriage has been rocky for a while, but taking separate holidays has convinced pals they’ve split up.”
Interior designer Charlotte sparked intrigue during the Euros when she posted: “Sooner or later you get over the s*** you swore you’d never get over and it’s the best feeling in the world.”
She did not travel to the tournament in Germany with the rest of the England Wags, causing fans to speculate online about the state of their eight-year marriage. Kieran played in all of England’s games except the final against Spain, when he was a substitute.
The couple’s £3.8million home in the North East is up for sale.
In May last year, we revealed how Kieran celebrated European qualification with Newcastle by lifting a blonde reveller while partying with team-mates at a packed karaoke bar.
He cuddled the woman before wrapping his arms around her and then picking her up by the bottom.
Charlotte was away holidaying in Spain at the time.
The £130,000-a-week right-back delayed linking up with the England squad in September for a Euros qualifier against Ukraine due to a “personal commitment”.
Boss Gareth Southgate gave him special permission to join late after he and Charlotte escaped to Italy for a romantic getaway.
‘On the rocks’
Charlotte posted snaps of the couple together at dinner and on a speedboat on Lake Como.
But Kieran pulled out of the England squad again in November ahead of another Euro qualifier against North Macedonia.
In a statement at the time, his club Newcastle said he had “returned home from the England squad due to a personal matter”.
Details were not revealed, but sources said it was linked to their faltering marriage.

On New Year’s Day, Charlotte posted images of them celebrating together. One image showed her in Kieran’s arms with HNY and a love heart.
In another, she was pictured kissing her footie hubby along with the message: “2024 Let’s go.”

Charlotte then stopped following her husband on Instagram and amended her profile to read: “Mum. Fashion lover. Travel.”
The Sun on Sunday has contacted a representative for Trippier.
GARETH Southgate has received a boost after a six-figure debt owed to him by his former agent was repaid.
Terry Byrne borrowed around £750,000 from the ex-England boss and footie heroes Glenn Hoddle and Joe Cole.
The agent was reported to have used the money to help fund a failed £25million London property deal. It resulted in Southgate and Byrne parting company after eight years.
Last month, Byrne accepted an out-of-court cash settlement from the FA after he brought a £3million claim.
A source said: “Terry has now paid Gareth back, plus the debts to the other ex-players.”
Southgate had waited a year. The FA and Byrne were approached for comment.
