This has made him respected and reliable both on and off the pitch and has helped put him on the path to success.His drive to succeed started early. Marc’s school motto was “Be The Best That You Can Be” and he took it to heart.READ MORE ON MARC GUEHIHe was a very quiet boy and comes from a religious family. They are a very tight unit.Steve Owen, coached Marc from the age of five in South LondonThe Crystal Palace ace was born in Abidjan, the largest city in the Ivory Coast, West Africa, but moved to England aged one.His dad John, 52, became a minister at a church in Lewisham, South East London, where Marc played the drums.Steve Owen, 65, who coached him from the age of five with Cray Wanderers, in Sidcup, South East London, before Marc moved to Chelsea’s youth system, said: “Marc was in a younger group but I used to sneak him in to play with older boys aged six.“He was a left-sided centre-back like he is now, and not many players got past him. He wasn’t a flair player, but was solid in everything he did.Most read in Football‘Amazing dedication’“He was a very quiet boy and comes from a religious family. They are a very tight unit.“I still speak to his dad occasionally. He was always the one to take Marc to training, from when he was at Cray to Chelsea.Wyett ratings England v Serbia“Marc was never late once, he was always early. His dedication for such a young kid was amazing.“He is still very regimented in what he does and I think that is down to his background.”Marc, whose full name is Addji Keaninkin Marc-Israel Guehi, moved to Chelsea’s academy at the age of eight and idolised club legend John Terry throughout his youth.He worked his way through the ranks and played in two Carabao Cup matches for the Blues before two loan spells at Swansea City.In 2021, the muscly 6ft defender — who is not on social media — signed for Palace for £18million on a five-year deal and has become one of the Premier League’s most highly-regarded young defenders.Steve, who scouts for Chelsea’s academy, said: “When Marc was at Chelsea he came to Cray to do a presentation for the lads. He is a role model to everyone at our club. Seeing him at the Euros is fantastic, it’s a dream come true for any young footballer.”As well as his no-nonsense defending, he is superb on the ball, with the ability to dribble past opponents and launch attacks.And despite his quiet nature, he is also a natural leader, becoming Palace’s youngest captain in ten years when he wore the armband for the first time in 2022. He is now the Eagles’ permanent skipper.Marc also captained England under-17s in the Euros in 2017, when they lost the final on penalties to Spain.Later that year he scored in the final of the under-17s World Cup, starring alongside fellow Euros team-mates Phil Foden and Conor Gallagher, in a 5-2 win, again against Spain.He has maintained his friendship with Conor in the England camp in Blankenhain, where in downtime they compete against each other in games of Mario Kart, basketball and table tennis.Conor said: “Me and Marc go way back. We both joined Chelsea academy, we would’ve been seven or eight years old.“We played with England together growing up, we went to Swansea together, Crystal Palace . . . so yeah, pretty much anywhere I’ve gone he’s kind of been following me.“He’s a great friend of mine and he’s a top player as well.”Marc’s leadership skills were clear at school, where he was a “responsible person” who acted as a role model to other pupils.Marc’s old headteacher Edward Dove, of Marvels Lane Primary School in Lewisham, said: “Marc was with us for five years and he was a great kid. We have been following him with interest and pride.“It’s not often you get a club captain at such a young age.“That’s got something to do with his values, which hopefully we played a little part in.“He embraced our motto of ‘Be The Best That You Can Be’. He always knew he was part of a team. He was a great role model.“Marc hasn’t forgotten his roots. He has come back to visit us twice, after the under-17s won the World Cup and when he joined Crystal Palace.“He has got great values which he seems to have maintained.”Living with parentsAs of last October, Marc was still living with his parents and sisters Lois, 21, Joelle, 16, and 12-year-old Shirel. He said previously: “It’s actually hard to put into words what my mum and sisters have done for me, because anything I say wouldn’t actually justify what they’ve done.“I’m just so grateful to have them in my life.“My sisters and I have always been close.“We are all fortunate because not everyone has that and I’m very aware of it. I’m just glad we’ve grown up together.”“God first” was the rule in Marc’s house growing up, which is why he would never play football on a Sunday until he began pursuing it as a career — and it is now paying off.With two years left on his £50,000-a-week deal with Palace, he is being touted with a £65million move to Prem giants Liverpool, among others.I still go to church on Sundays when I can and it’s played a big part in both my football and my life in general, with my morals, my values and who I put my trust in.Marc GuehiHe has won 12 senior England caps and is in line for another in today’s match against Denmark, with a win putting the Three Lions through to the Euros knockout stage.And he will have Man United’s Maguire, 31, worrying about getting back into Southgate’s starting 11 if he keeps up his perfect performances.Marc has said: “My dad was a minister, so faith is massively important in my life.“I still go to church on Sundays when I can and it’s played a big part in both my football and my life in general, with my morals, my values and who I put my trust in.“My faith is something I value very highly in my life, for sure.“Church was also where I used to play the drums. We didn’t have a set at home so it was the only time I could play.“It was nice to just be free and enjoy it and it was an enjoyable part of growing up.READ MORE SUN STORIES“I’m not up there with the greatest drummers in the world but I’d like to think I’m OK at it.”If England are to win this year’s Euros, after losing in the final in 2021, they could do worse than follow the beat of Marc’s drum . . .Marc making his name at Chelsea’s academyPutting in the hours of training in GermanyCredit: GettyDespite his quiet nature, he is also a natural leader, becoming Crystal Palace’s youngest captain in ten yearsCredit: Getty More

      How Euro 2024 host Laura Woods tamed Love Island’s biggest bad boy Adam Collard who made Joey Essex look like a puppy

      by

      HE was one of Love Island’s most notorious bad boys when he first was on the show – but one woman seems to have changed all that.Personal trainer Adam Collard, 28, has been dating Euro 2024 presenter Laura Woods, 36, since last year, confirming their relationship in October 2023.Love Island star Adam Collard was once the ultimate ladies’ manCredit: Splash NewsBut he’s been dating Euro 2024 host Laura Woods since OctoberCredit: In stagramLaura has her own career, which is what Adam needs, according to relationship expert Jo HemmingsCredit: Instagram @laurawoodsyThe former loverat has called her “The One,” spent Christmas with her – the first time he’s done so with a girlfriend since he was 21 – and in a break from tradition, kept their relationship relatively out of the limelight, seemingly on Laura’s wishes.It’s a far cry from the man who admits himself he’s been “ruthless” in the past, claims to have had 25 girlfriends, and spent many years partying and juggling flings with girls including Zara McDermott and Lottie Moss.Relationship expert Jo Hemmings says: “He’s now 28, he’s a professional with a job, and I think he just went off the whole idea of ever realistically meeting somebody on a TV show. “He’s now met somebody who is also a professional, and is only on TV as a byproduct of what she does in sport.MORE LOVE ISLAND FEATURES“He’s got himself in a comfortable place. Financially, he’s older, he’s more mature, he’s more settled. “He once played into this roguish character that people saw him as, and became a parody of himself. But look who’s laughing now. “He’s got a fabulous girlfriend, they’re in a long term relationship, he’s well off, he’s still in the public eye, and he’s getting on with his life in the way that I think he always wanted.”Here, we reveal how Laura finally managed to tame Adam, whose bad boy womanising made current Island villain Joey Essex look like a puppy.Most read in Euro 2024Infamous villainAdam first shot to fame in 2018, when he walked into the Love Island villa as the first bombshell, quickly stealing Kendall Rae Knight from Niall Aslam.He then swiftly moved on to Rosie Williams, and implied they’d had sex, when he joked he’d had a “really, really good sleep” and woken up with a “spring” in his step.Adam was accused of ‘gaslighting’ Rosie Williams in his first Love Island stintCredit: Rex FeaturesHe then dumped her for Zara McDermott, as she predicted he wouldCredit: Splash NewsLaura Woods can’t keep her hands off boyfriend Adam Collard as loved-up couple snog on the beach in MexicoWithin days – and just as Zara McDermott walked in – he decided Rosie had become too clingy.Adam told Zara he’d “caught feelings” for her, but when Rosie confronted him about it, he suggested her jealousy over his flirting with Zara is what “pushed him away”.Charities like Women’s Aid even stepped in, issuing warnings about his behaviour, saying he exhibited signs of “gaslighting and emotional abuse”.Then, when Zara was dumped from the island without him, Adam moved on to Darylle Sargeant, despite promising Zara he’d stay true to her – and he left soon after.Serial playboyZara and Adam were together for eight months and even got matching tattoosCredit: Splash NewsAdam with ex-girlfriend Sarah GodfreyOnce out of the villa, Adam managed to get back into Zara’s good books and they hooked up again, even getting tattoos of each other’s initials.She claimed she’d “tamed” his wild ways, and they moved in together in Essex.But just eight months later, it seemed Zara and Adam’s relationship was on the rocks as he enjoyed a drunken night out surrounded by girls, including Instagram model Brittany Archer.Announcing the split soon after, Zara wrote: “Sometimes in life, you just aren’t enough for someone; no matter what you do for them or how much you try to be.”Two months after the split, he got his tattoo removed – and hours after, was pictured partying with Lisa Rinna’s model daughter Delilah Hamlin, who dated Eyal Booker.Following Zara, he had a short relationship with Irish fitness influencer Sarah Godfrey, as well as a fling with TOWIE star Demi Sims.’Game plan’ revelationHe went into the Love Island villa the second time and got a ‘game plan’ girlfriendCredit: InstagramAdam was spotted ‘all over’ another girl after fans accused him of cheating on PaigeCredit: tiktok/@alexkellyBut Adam made a shock return to Love Island in July 2022.It actually seemed like he was finally ready to settle down, as he coupled up with paramedic Paige Thorne immediately, and remained coupled up with her for the duration of the show.They were together for four months after the show ended, but split in November 2022, when Paige accused Adam of cheating, and he was caught on video flirting with other girls on a night out.Adam later admitted he chose Paige as part of a “game plan” when he went into Love Island the second time.Love Island bad boysAdam Collard is just one of many Love Island bad boys, as we reveal the others…
      Michael Griffiths – In series five, Michael left viewers – and Amber Gill, who he’d been coupled up with since the start – absolutely stunned as he coupled up with Joanna Chimonides in Casa Amor. He became the first member of Destiny’s Chaldish, and Amber went on to win the show.
      Liam Reardon – Love Island viewers were rooting for Millie Court and Liam in series seven until he cheated on her with Lillie Haynes in Casa Amor. Despite doing this, and then only confessing when Lillie dropped him in it, Millie got back together with Liam and then won the show with him. Apart from a brief split, they’re still together now.
      Jordan Hames – Just two days after asking Anna Vakili to be his girlfriend in series five, Jordan started trying it on with India Reynolds – who wasn’t even interested in him. A huge argument erupted and he was dumped from the villa soon after.
      Luca Bish – In series eight, Luca coupled up with Gemma Owen almost immediately, and constantly labelled her “muggy” any time she even spoke to another boy. This was all while he encouraged all the boys to cheat on their girls in Casa Amor. Luca’s family even issued a statement apologising for their son’s “insensitive behaviour”, saying that when he watches the episode back he’ll be “embarrassed and deeply apologetic”.
      Josh Ritchie – All the way back in series one, Josh Ritchie brutally ended his short-lived romance with Naomi Ball because she refused to have sex with him. He then turned to Jess Hayes, because he thought he could get a “good three-weeks sh*gging” with her. Love Island was a different show back then!
      Terry Walsh – In series two, Terry was coupled up with Malin Andersson and things were getting very serious, with the pair having a lot of sex. She then, shockingly, got dumped from the villa, and he told her he’d wait for her. The next day, Emma Jane Woodhams walked in, and he was very quickly having sex with her, in front of all their housemates, with Emma on top of the sheets. Malin then came in and gave him what for, in one of Love Island’s most memorable showdowns of all time.

      Speaking to Mail Online, he said: “The thing with Love Island is I’m the only one who is willing to admit it, I would completely choose the right person to stay on the show.”That’s why I got back on the show in my eyes, they realised I didn’t care about anything.“We all know the game. It was really hard for me the second time because I could see through everything, it is unbelievable how clear it is the second time.”So yes, everyone comes on and says I am here to find love and that, yes you kind of are and obviously that is unreal but nobody is daft.”‘Ruthless’Adam had a fling with Lottie Moss when he went on Celebs Go DatingCredit: E4His plan worked, as he got more TV work off the back of his Love Island appearance, signing up for Celebs Go Dating after his split from Paige, on which he met Lottie Moss.On the first night they met, Adam and Kate Moss’ younger half-sister slept together, and did this another three times throughout their time on the E4 dating show.The dating experts Paul C Brunson and Anna Williamson then encouraged them to actually go on a date to a restaurant together.The next day, Lottie dumped “f***boy” Adam when she found out he’d decided to kiss another girl he was dating.But two months later, he was dating Laura Woods, and said: “Do you know what, as much as I have been a little bit ruthless in the past with relationships and yes I’ve ended things when it has started to not work out, I am actually a bit of a hopeless romantic.”I do think there is someone for every person and I want to go and do all the things I like to do with someone else.”‘The One’Adam has called Laura ‘The One’Credit: Instagram @laurawoodsyShe rarely posts with him and, by his standards, he’s the sameCredit: InstagramUnusually for Adam, the couple kept their relationship private at first, meeting in secret at the Black Bull pub in Trimdon, Co Durham, and heading off for a weekend away in St Ives in early October, before finally going public later that month.And it’s likely this was something Laura has been very keen on.She has previously said: “For anyone to see that part of me fills me with dread. “It sounds like it’s a bad thing but only because I associate social media and relationships in a bad way. “I’m almost certain nothing good can come from sharing. Maybe I’ve learned, maybe it’s something historic, I’ve never thought it was a good idea to share them.”I’ve met [Laura’s parents] and they’ve given me the thumbs up – luckily they don’t read many papersAdam CollardEven now, Laura has only posted about him on Instagram once, as part of a post about “things she loves,” while it’s Adam who is more vocal about their relationship.He often comments on her pictures complimenting her, and has posted about their holidays numerous times – although nowhere near as many as he would’ve in previous relationships.And it seems he’s finally found The One with her, as he’s admitted Laura has always “given him the benefit of the doubt” when it comes to his “bad boy reputation”, which has ultimately made their relationship stronger.He told The Sun: “For someone who’s had 25 girlfriends, I’ve really only had three. “If you actually ask the people that I’ve really been going out with, I think that they would have very different opinions based on how I’ve treated them and she’s definitely given me the benefit of the doubt with that. “She definitely sees through it.”He’s even won round her parents.Before going to hers for Christmas, he told us: “I”m going to her parents, so it’s pretty special. I’ve met them and they’ve given me the thumbs up – luckily they don’t read many papers.”Laura’s ‘stability’He’s now a doting boyfriend to LauraCredit: InstagramJo says it’s Laura’s job as a sports presenter that would have appealed to Adam, and changed him.“There is an influence of stability from Laura,” she explains. “Because she’s not on a TV show to find fame and fortune. She’s got a really good job of her own, but she does incredibly well, so I think that’s a stabilising energy for him.“I also think he’s of an age and in a position now in his life where he’s ready to settle down, and what has gone before has just helped build him up into a situation where he is.READ MORE SUN STORIES“His heartbreaker and player image appealed to women. They went after him as the one who wanted to tame him. But he wasn’t really ready. “I do think having worked towards a stable, healthy, non-reality TV-based relationship, is probably exactly what he needed, and exactly what he wanted.” More
