Inside the England Euros camp: Kyle Walker reveals all on star whose axeing left him 'massively shocked', Prince William's advice, who the best 'traitor' is and names who was LAST on penalty list

Kyle Walker has revealed key moments of England’s run to the European Championship final, including outlining how the Three Lions aimed to cope with the pressure of trying to win the tournament in Germany.
The Man City full back opened up about the England camp on his BBC podcast ‘You’ll Never Beat Kyle Walker’.

Walker played every minute of England’s run to the final, with Gareth Southgate’s side eventually suffering a 2-1 defeat to Spain in Berlin.

The tournament marked Walker’s fifth for England, with the vice-captain opening up on his experiences in Germany to his podcast co-host Chris Hughes.

He admitted being left ‘massively shocked’ ahead of the tournament by Southgate’s decision to leave out his Manchester City team-mate Jack Grealish from his 26-man squad.

Walker admitted he had a different opinion to Gareth Southgate over leaving out Grealish

Walker suggested Grealish’s character could have been an advantage had he been included in the squad.

Massively shocked,’ he said when asked what he thought about Grealish’s omission. ‘Because first and foremost I know what Jack brings not just on the field but off the field.

He is like the knit that brings everyone together because he’s so bubbly and is such a great character.

‘We all know what he can do on the football field. He has something different that the others didn’t have.’

Grealish had payed the price for an underwhelming season, but has since admitted that he was left ‘heartbroken’ to have been left out.

Reports had claimed one player spoke to Southgate in the immediate aftermath to try to understand the call and help explain it to team-mates.

Walker dismissed suggestions he had spoken to Southgate over Grealish’s omission.

‘I can’t go against what he thinks I might have a different opinion,’ he added. ‘I might have pulled someone in and dropped someone out. You don’t know. But he’s had to a really tough decision where someone was always going to miss out.

He admitted the England squad discussed criticism they faced after their draw with Denmark

‘Obviously, there was a little leadership group of me Harry Kane, Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham and Saks [Bukayo Saka].

‘We tried to make sure the messages that the manager was trying to get onto the field were understood and very clear to the players. And you have to work as a team, so if we’re fighting tooth and nail before we’ve even got there because I think he’s not brought my mate [Grealish] over – it’s not really going to stand us in good stead.

‘Do I think Jack should have been there? Probably yeah, because I feel that he brings something different. But again it’s not down to me to decide who’s in the squad and who’s not in the squad.’

Walker also reflected on criticism England received for their performances, with BBC presenter Gary Lineker notably labelling their display in a group stage draw against Denmark as being ‘s***’.

The experienced defender admitted he would be lying if he said the England squad had not discussed the criticism.

He suggested the squad had ‘put more weight on our shoulders than probably needed to be’ due to their belief they could win the tournament, which he believes impacted their performances.

Mail Sport reported that Prince William had told the squad to keep calm after the Denmark draw, with Walker revealing further advice from the FA president.

‘He said “Don’t show your true self yet, wait until the end of the tournament, that is where you show your true self, where your real self comes out as a team”,’ Walker Walker discussed Prince William’s advice to the squad after their slow start to the Euros

‘I think he was definitely right and I think it is something I will remember and take into Man City. You don’t have to start well, it is about how you finish.’

Amid the pressure of trying to go one step further than Euro 2020, where England were beaten on penalties in the final by Italy, Walker revealed how the squad bonded in Germany.

The 34-year-old confirmed several games had taken place during the camp with England, as well as singer Ed Sheeran and golfer Ian Poulter making surprise visits.

Walker revealed the squad had been playing the game ‘wolf’ – which has been adapted to form the hit BBC show ‘The Traitors’.

The card game sees players assigned roles as villagers or werewolves, with special roles added during gameplay.

Werewolves conspire to eliminate Villagers, while Villagers must identify and vote to eliminate the hidden Werewolves. In short, players must bluff, persuade, and outwit one another to achieve their side’s victory.

Walker revealed their game of Wolf/Traitors lasted throughout the tournament, with one England squad member impressing.

‘I heard Marc Guehi was very, very good at it,’ Walker revealed. ‘He was throwing bombs left, right and centre.

Zendaya has appeared to debunk pregnancy rumors which went viral on social media.

 

The “Spider-Man: No Way Home” actor posted an Instagram Story on June 15, which said, “See now, this is why I stay off Twitter… Just making stuff up for no reason… weekly.”

It followed rumors that Zendaya was pregnant spreading on Twitter, where a TikTok falsely claiming she’d announced a pregnancy began to circulate. Users appeared to believe the hoax, despite it originally being posted as part of a viral TikTok prank called the “Krissed” trend, where people make false claims about celebrities to bait people into watching a clip of Kris Jenner dancing to “Lady Marmalade.”

On June 13, a user called Ryan Roberts posted a TikTok showing a picture of an ultrasound that looked like a screenshot from Instagram, with Zendaya’s Instagram handle above it.

On Zendaya’s Instagram profile, there is no picture that matches the screenshot in the TikTok.

The 12-second video then cut to a 2011 clip of Kris Jenner dancing and lipsyncing to the “Moulin Rouge” song, with an on-screen caption reading, “You just got Krissed.”

The word “krissed” was used as a synonym for pranked in the video caption, which went on to say, “Send this to your friends to absolutely #kris them.”

Similar videos have gone viral over the past week, and 11,000 TikToks have been posted on the platform with the hashtag “#krissed,” as part of the prank.

Commenters under the original TikTok largely recognized that the pregnancy claims weren’t true, with top comments saying, “I didn’t fall for this one,” and “Nope I was actually prepared this time.”

The TikTok user who posted the video did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.

On Twitter, users appeared to believe the pregnancy was real
Shortly after the TikTok was posted, a rumor that Zendaya was pregnant began to spread on Twitter.

The topic “Zendaya pregnant,” was trending on the platform on June 15, with some people suggesting they were shocked or sad to hear the news, and top liked tweets under the hashtag, “#ZendayaPregnant” have hundreds of thousands of likes each on the platform.

Some users recognized that the rumors originated from the “Krissed” trend and were part of a prank, urging users not to believe the claims.

Zendaya’s personal life has frequently been the topic of speculation on social media

Zendaya and her boyfriend Tom Holland have tried to keep their relationship out of the public eye as much as possible. However, last year, Holland told People that he wanted to “take a break and focus on starting a family.”

He added: “I love kids. I can’t wait to be a dad — I can wait and I will, but I can’t wait!”

In February, Holland also shut down reports that he had purchased a home in London, England with Zendaya.

The two Marvel stars were first linked after starring in the “Spider-Man” Marvel Cinematic Universe trilogy together. Last year, dating rumors surfaced after they were photographed kissing in a car.

Holland later told GQ that he and Zendaya felt “robbed” of their privacy by the photograph.

“One of the downsides of our fame is that privacy isn’t really in our control anymore, and a moment that you think is between two people that love each other very much is now a moment that is shared with the entire world,” Holland said.

Representatives for Zendaya did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment
