Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has revealed that he always carries a spare pair of underpants in his designer bag.
The 23-year-old England international emptied the contents of his luxury Louis Vuitton accessory on camera for a video published on the British Vogue YouTube channel.
Bellingham noted with irony that there was probably no need to explain why someone should carry an extra pair with them at all times. He added that a person can never know what might happen to them while away from home.
Items inside the Louis Vuitton bag
The footballer unpacked an eclectic mix of grooming essentials, personal documents, and everyday gadgets from the luxury bag. Alongside the spare pants, his collection included an electric shaver, a stick of deodorant, a scalp scrubber, and several charging cables for his electronic devices.
The England star also produced a tablet computer, his passport, and an invalid driving licence. He completed the reveal with two personal downtime favourites, holding up a pack of the popular card game Skyjo alongside a small Lego figurine.
Fashion shoots and social media buzz
The online feature follows an earlier project for Vogue that caused a widespread stir across social media networks. Bellingham has rapidly established himself as a major cultural icon, frequently drawing praise for his sharp personal style and making front-row appearances at leading fashion events across Europe.
The midfielder has enjoyed a meteoric rise on the pitch as well. Born in Stourbridge, he came through the youth system at Birmingham City and starred for Borussia Dortmund before completing a blockbuster transfer to Real Madrid in 2023, where he won both La Liga and the Champions League in his debut season.
British Vogue regularly invites prominent actors, musicians, and sports personalities to unpack their bags for its digital audience. Bellingham's lighthearted inventory offers a rare glimpse into the practical packing habits of an elite athlete who spends much of the football season travelling across Europe for club and country.
