      Neither of them has posted about each other on social media for eight weeks.
      Both have removed Instagram images of the OK! magazine cover that featured their £200,000 wedding last June.
      The Sun on Sunday revealed Defoe had begged a nurse for sex just a month after getting married.
      A source said: “The marriage seems to be in trouble. You would think they would want to spend their first Christmas together as husband and wife but they haven’t so things aren’t looking at all good.”

      Defoe and Donna married at stately home Cliveden House, in Berkshire, in June last year.
      The lavish bash featured across 14 pages as well as the cover of OK! magazine later that month.
      Defoe said at the time: “This is my future, this is forever, this is the person I want to spend the rest of my life with.”
      But in October, The Sun on Sunday revealed that Defoe had tried to lure a mum for a romp in the back of his Range Rover weeks after he wed.

      Donna has not been seen for some time at the couple’s £300,000 home in Glasgow and is believed to be staying with her parents nearby.
      A neighbour said: “I haven’t seen her here for ages. I don’t think she’s living there any more.”
      The couple were last pictured together eight weeks ago at a champagne bash for the former striker’s birthday.
      Prior to that they would regularly gush about each other on their Instagram pages, with holiday snaps and loving posts about “Mr and Mrs Defoe”.
      But for nearly two months there has been a noticeable silence. Defoe has only posted pictures of himself in St Lucia, without his wedding ring and with no mention of his wife.
      One of his followers speculated: “Bro getting divorced already.”

      Meanwhile, Donna has only posted pictures of herself and her family.
      She wished her 8,000 followers “all the love and happiness in the world”, beneath a picture of her 12-year-old daughter unwrapping Christmas presents.
      There was no mention of Defoe and one follower posted: “Are you and JD not together any more?”
      Days later Donna suggested in an Instagram story that she was glad to see the back of 2022 — and was “looking ahead” to the New Year.
      She also posted: “Some people will take you out of the rain and dry you off, some will stand with you and some will turn the rain into a hurricane.”
      Defoe met Donna in January 2021 when he was playing for Rangers and she asked him for a signed football shirt for a charity do. 
      The pair hit it off and Defoe proposed at a Glasgow hotel seven months later.
      He spelled out “Marry me” with lights in their penthouse suite, which he decorated with heart-shaped balloons and rose petals, and got down on one knee to pop the question.
      Their wedding last June was attended by 360 guests, including former England stars Ledley King, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Carlton Cole.
      For the last two months, Defoe has only posted pictures of himself holidaying in St lucia
      The pair chose the swanky 376-acre Cliveden House for a three-day wedding extravaganza, after Defoe read that  Meghan had stayed there on the eve of her marriage to  Prince Harry.
      Defoe wore a cream jacket, black trousers and a bow tie, and said his “eyes just started welling up” when he saw Donna approaching the altar. 
      Their first dance was to Luther Vandross’s Always and Forever.
      The celebrations lasted until 7am and included fire-eaters, flamethrowers, a Caribbean buffet and a makeshift nightclub.
      But within weeks of the wedding he was messaging a nurse and asking her to meet for sex.
      The nurse, who we are not naming, claims that Defoe, who has been dogged by cheating rumours in the past, called her last month insisting she listen to what he had to say — but she quickly hung up.
      She said of his marriage troubles: “Donna must have known what he was like when she got with him — surely she looked this man up. He was messaging me within days of getting married to her.
      “As soon as I heard his voice on the phone last month I hung up. I’m so happy to be done and dusted with all of it.
      “It doesn’t matter who he is or how much money he’s got, there’s no way I’d be in a relationship with a man like him.”

      Defoe scored 20 goals in 57 games for England. 
      His career included spells at West Ham, Spurs, Rangers and Sunderland. 
      He retired in March last year and is now a youth academy coach and ambassador for Spurs. He also appeared as a pundit on Channel 4’s coverage of England’s matches last year.
      His agents were approached for comment.

      JERMAIN Defoe became famed for his goal-scoring exploits — and is now often a TV pundit.
      And he has moved into coaching with youth players at his former club Tottenham, where he also works as an ambassador.
      He scored 227 goals in 624 club matches in a career spanning 23 years from 1999 to 2022.
      He also notched 20 goals in 57 England matches, including one at the 2010 World Cup.
      The prolific striker played for a total of seven clubs — West Ham, Spurs, Portsmouth, Toronto FC, Sunderland, Bournemouth and Glasgow giants Rangers.
      Defoe had a loan spell at Bournemouth before a £7million move to Spurs, where he enjoyed the most fruitful days of his career, in 2004.

      He was awarded an OBE in 2018 for his charitable work with the Jermain Defoe Foundation.
      While playing for Sunderland in 2016, he struck up a close friendship with six-year-old Bradley Lowery who had a debilitating form of cancer. Bradley passed away in 2017. More

      John, 58, who is super fit and does 10km runs, said he took out the policy after Gypsy King Tyson, 34, won the WBC world heavyweight title.
      He said: “I’ve insured my nuts for £10million. Believe me there is good stuff that comes out of them.
      “I’ve got world champion nuts in these trousers — breed some kings I do.
      “There are only champions coming out of these nuts — it’s been proven hasn’t it?”

      The former professional boxer said he got the policy after Tyson knocked out Deontay Wilder in 2020 to win the WBC title — making him a two-time world champ.
      John has two other sons — Love Island star Tommy, 23, who boxes professionally, and Shane, 29, who isn’t a pro boxer but has trained with his brothers.
      Tommy is unbeaten after eight pro bouts and says he is also aiming to be a world champ.
      John was never a champion and has a modest pro boxing record of eight wins, four defeats and one draw.

      John told freebets.com: “Words cannot express how proud of Tyson and Tommy and all my family I am. I feel like I’m a world champ some times.”

      Now a youth academy coach and ambassador for Spurs, the former Three Lions ace began contacting the 40-year-old mum in July.
      On June 4, Spurs hero Defoe, 39, wed Donna Tierney, 40, at stately home Cliveden House, Berks, in a £200,000 ceremony ­featured on the front page of OK! magazine.
      In the glossy magazine, he said: “This is my future, this is forever, this is the person I want to spend the rest of my life with.”
      The event, attended by a clutch of former England stars including Ledley King and Shaun Wright-Phillips, was featured across 14 pages of the June 27 issue.
      READ MORE JERMAIN DEFOE
      But on July 14, Defoe began messaging the woman, who we are not naming, via ­Instagram and later tried to arrange a meet-up.
       She said: “I’d met ­Jermain years ago in a bar, but nothing happened.
      “We stayed in touch a bit over WhatsApp but I hadn’t spoken to him for ages.
      “Then he started messaging me on Instagram in July. He was desperate to meet me and we flirted a lot.
      Most read in The Sun
      “But ultimately, he wasn’t very charming — he clearly only had one thing in his mind.
      “Then, when I realised he was married, I didn’t want it to go any further.
      “It wouldn’t have been fair on his wife. Who on Earth does that so soon after vowing to spend the rest of their life with someone?
      “I suppose I felt he was the powerful one, the famous and wealthy former footballer.
      “Our messages were a bit of fun at the time, but there was no point in carrying it on.
      “I felt like I was wasting my time and once I realised he had a wife, I didn’t want to continue speaking to him.
      “It’s not right. I feel really bad about it all.”
      On June 21, Defoe gleefully declared on Instagram how ­“dedicating my whole life” to Donna was “one of the easiest things I’ve ever done”.
      Jermain Defoe’s wedding to Donna Tierney was the front page of OK! magazine
      He shared a mock-up of the cover of OK! showing the couple at their luxury Cliveden House wedding — scene of the Profumo sex scandal and where Meghan stayed on the eve of marrying Prince Harry.
      Defoe thanked the glossy mag for “showcasing our special day” and excitedly told his 563,000 followers the “full copy is out now”.
      In his chat with the magazine Defoe told how he had finally found “the right one” in his new partner.
      Beauty therapist Donna spoke of pals talking about “how special” Defoe’s wedding speech was, and that it “showed how much he appreciates me”.
      Ironically, he first “met” Donna several years ago by ‘liking’ her pictures on social media — in a similar way to his latest pursuit.
      After the wedding, the couple went on honeymoon to the Maldives.

      On July 6, the newlyweds posed outside Wimbledon’s Centre Court, with the ace boasting on Instagram: “Really enjoyed watching the tennis today at ­Wimbledon with my wife @Donna_Defoe.”
      But in his messages with the woman, which began eight days later, he called her “babe” in voice notes and asked to meet up.
      On August 19, he told her he wanted to romp with her in the back of his Range Rover.
      Defoe met wife Donna in January 2021 when she asked him for a signed football shirt for a charity do.
      The pair hit it off and Defoe proposed at a top Glasgow hotel seven months later.
      He spelled out “Marry Me” with lights in their penthouse suite, which he decorated with heart-shaped balloons and rose petals, and got down on one knee.
      The pair chose the swanky 376-acre Cliveden House for a three-day wedding extravaganza, after Defoe read Meghan had stayed there.
      He wore a three-piece off-white suit, black trousers and a bow tie, and said his “eyes just started welling up” when he saw Donna approaching the altar.

      Their first dance was to Luther Vandross’s Always And Forever. The celebrations lasted until 7am and included fire-eaters, flamethrowers, a Caribbean buffet and a makeshift nightclub.
      Last Wednesday, Defoe — who scored 20 goals in his 50 caps for England — was at Wembley for Channel 4’s coverage of the Three Lions,  alongside host Jules Breach, and ex-players Joe Cole and Thomas Hitzlsperger.
      Defoe, known for his charity work, has previously been dogged by cheating rumours — including on his singer ex Alexandra Burke.
      He was also accused in 2017 of causing the break-up of radio presenter Ben Weston’s marriage, months after he bought a hot tub from his saleswoman wife Sally.

      Natasha and Ched couldn’t stop smiling on their wedding day, a source revealedCredit: Neil Jones – The Sun
      He was found guilty of raping a 19-year-old woman in 2012 – a verdict which was later overturned before he was found not guilty in a retrial.
      Natasha had been dating the ex-Sheffield United player for almost three years when he cheated on her with the teenager at a Premier Inn in Rhyl, North Wales, which left her heartbroken.
      The daughter of wealthy businessman Karl Massey wore a lace bodice dress for her wedding day and beamed as she posed with her footballer husband who was pictured in a tuxedo.
      A source said: “Natasha has stood by Ched through thick and thin and their wedding day showed that they have firmly put the past behind them.

      “The couple couldn’t wipe the smile off their faces as they said ‘I Do’ in front of their closest family and friends.“
      Natasha was heartbroken when Ched cheated on her but is hoping the ring on his finger will ensure he doesn’t do the same again.”
      Evans, who always admitted having sex with the accuser but insisted that it was consensual, was convicted in 2012 of rape and was sentenced to five years in jail after the woman was deemed “too drunk to consent”.
      Speaking on This Morning in 2014, Natasha said: “As soon as I found out he’d been questioned over rape, my instinct was kind of protective and I thought I had to stand by him.
      Most read in The Sun
      “So my thoughts and feelings over the cheating were put to one side and I stepped in to help him through this terrible time.”
      Evans served two-and-a-half years in jail where he worked as a painter and decorator and accepted an out-of-court settlement of around £800,000 with his original lawyers who defended him in his first rape trial.
