Mason — who was named Britain’s most eligible man by society mag Tatler last year for his “chiselled” good looks, “perfect white teeth” and England goals — has described himself as being in the “athletics” industry and linked his profile to Jack Harlow’s song Funny Seeing You Here.
The England poster boy has also included snaps from a trip to Paris in front of the ­Eiffel Tower and also candid shots showing off his designer wardrobe and impressive trainer collection.
A source said: “Mason is all about football but is also looking to find the right girl to settle down with. He is looking for a genuine connection and hopes that a few dates in the capital can help him find The One.
“Mason has taken his time after the break-up but is not going to rush into anything.”

And when asked about his relationship ­status by Tatler last year, he said: “Football is my priority.”

Meanwhile model and singer Chloe, who was also a member of London-based girl band 303, is making sure she shows Mason what he is missing and has posted a number of stunning bikini pictures from her recent trip to Jamaica.

But while Mason is bound to have women queuing around the block to get a date, it seems they will have to play second fiddle to his one true love — the beautiful game.

2023 will see amazing festival gigs from the likes of Elton John at Glasto and The Killers at Reading and Leeds.
But one name I wasn’t expecting to see on a line-up was Gemma Collins but it’s happening – at South ­London’s Mighty Hoopla.
She is pulling on her wellies for the second day of the event in Brockwell Park on June 4, where she will host a stage and sing.

Mimi’s late swipe at ex
MIMI Webb will release her debut album Amelia in March and has already let slip the name of one of her “favourite” tracks.
The House On Fire singer, posing here on a recent night out, shared that she’s written 12 tunes including one about an ex called Remind You, which she recorded in Justin Bieber’s studio in LA.

On Instagram Live, she said: “I was in a relationship and I remember I played it to this person and it was about them and it was like a, ‘Don’t f* this up’, kind of song – and then it got f*ed up.
Anyway, at the time it wasn’t, so it was about this whole situation and it is such a great song.
Then I changed it after because I was like, ‘No, I’m not having it about that, I am going to make it more with the update of what had happened.’ It is even better now.”

Sam sang with his guitar at the same pub he first played before going on to scoop two Brit Awards and an Ivor Novello gong.
Robert Webster, who hosts the weekly Low Lights Buskers Night, shared a snap of Sam captioned: “One of me very first Buskers from 8/9 years ago, got up!! Sam Fender. Sang a new song (you heard it here first).”
Sam was first spotted performing at the Tyne and Wear pub, where he also worked at 18 as a barman, by Ben Howard’s manager Owain Davies.
In 2019 Sam donated his Brit Critics Choice trophy to the pub to be turned into a beer pump before doing the same last year with his Best Alternative/Rock Act gong.
If his last album is anything to go by, I can’t wait for this new one to hit the airwaves.
Cash rolling in for Harry
HARRY Styles has had his most successful year yet, banking a whopping £18.5million over 12 months thanks to the success of his hit records.

And he is expected to have made even more in 2022 after scoring both the most successful single and album of the year in the UK.
As It Was, which spent ten weeks at No1, was the biggest hit, while Harry’s House was the top album, according to Official Charts.
He has also taken his hugely impressive Love On Tour around the world over the past 12 months and released the films My Policeman and Don’t Worry Darling, all of which is sure to have earned him a fortune.
This year will see Harry get to work on his fourth studio album between more dates on his long-running tour.
It will restart with three shows in California later this month, followed by concerts in Australia, New Zealand and Asia.
This summer will see him return to the UK and Europe for yet more stadium gigs, finishing in Italy in July.
Following his recent split from film-star-turned-director Olivia Wilde after almost two years, he had a quiet Christmas break back in Cheshire with his family.
Given the mad year he had in 2022, the star can certainly afford to relax a bit now if he wants to.
It’s raining Pussycat’s and dolls
AFTER weeks of bikini photos on Insta it was back to work with a bang for Ashley Roberts yesterday when she returned to the Heart Radio breakfast show.

Adele’s aching
ADELE will be wishing she could Set Fire To The Pain after revealing she is battling “really bad sciatica.”
The superstar said she now has to “waddle” instead of walk because of nerve pain in her back.
She was on stage at her Las Vegas residency at the weekend when she shot T-shirts into the audience and made the remarks.
Adele told the crowd: “I’ve just got to get over to the other side of the stage. I have to ­waddle these days as I have really bad sciatica.”
She had better hope it clears soon though or the rest of her year could be uncomfortable indeed.
Adele is due to ­perform at Caesars ­Palace nearly every weekend until the end of March. Ouch!

Raye heads back to top

Jolie’s desire for Paul
PAUL Mescal has befriended A-list actress Angelina Jolie after he impressed her with his performance in the West End show A Streetcar Named Desire.
The Irish actor, who had his breakout role in the 2020 BBC drama Normal People, is currently starring as Stanley in the play in London, which Angelina watched last week.
But she was so enthralled that she then met him for a coffee at the Almeida Theatre’s cafe the following day, along with her ­daughter Shiloh.
Fans spotted the surprise meeting and shared snaps on social media.
Paul has become a hugely in-demand young actor, so I wouldn’t be surprised if actress-turned-filmmaker Angelina soon snaps him up for one of her own movie projects. More
