Reality TV star Kim Kardashian has struck up a close friendship with a mystery British power couple who follow her across the world on her travels.
Charlotte Adams and her Arsenal fan husband Ryan have been snapped alongside Kim several times while she was touring Europe earlier this year with her children.
The British couple were in Dublin for St Patrick’s Day with her and also at the Emirates Stadium the same month when they went to an Arsenal Europa League match.
The couple, thought to divide their time between London and Los Angeles, are understood to have met Kim as their own son is friends with Kim’s.
They were also pictured driving Guinness with Kim, 42, and other pals in a boozer and Ryan was even seen playing football in a hotel corridor with her children.
Ryan is also glimpsed briefly in the background in the latest episode of her show Hulu’s The Kardashians in the cabin of the private jet taking Kim, her children and other friends to Europe.
In the same episode Kim also confessed she was ‘scared out of my mind’ to tell her husband Kanye West she had hired a male helper – prompting speculation that it was Ryan.
During the visit to the Emirates Ryan can be seen sitting close to Kim and her children, their friends and their mum’s and he is wearing an Arsenal shirt.
Kim had taken her seven-year-old son Saint and some of his best friends and their parents to London for the football trip.
They flew to London on a private jet and in footage from the show Ryan can be seen in the background talking to Saint.
The party were in London for Arsenal’s Europa League match against Portuguese side Sporting CP which ended 1-1 on the night but on penalties the Premier League side crashed out 5-3.
As Kim and the other parents are leading their boys through the arena, they all say that Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is their favourite player in the current squad.
Kim says: ‘I try to find what my kids’ passion is and do a trip with them. I’ve taken Chicago and her friends to San Diego. They love the zoos and the Legoland’s and all that.
‘Luckily, Psalm just tags along, you know. North loves Paris and fashion, so I took her to Paris. Saint loves soccer, so I figured this is our trip.
‘It’s gonna be so much fun and it definitely is just such an amazing bonding experience.’
Later in the episode, the mums are all trying to get the boys changed for the Arsenal match.
Kim explains: ‘We’re in London and we got a little bit of rest so we can be ready for the Arsenal game tonight.
‘This is like a dream come true. I played soccer, so I want to make sure Saint has so much fun and falls in love with the sport.’
While they’re walking through the arena, Saint is heard saying, ‘This is the worst day of my life,’ as Kim responds, ‘Oh stop it, Saint.’
They go in the suite as Kim tells him to get his jersey, as Kim explains in confession that she, ‘forgot Saint’s red Arsenal jersey that we specifically got for this trip, that, of course, I left at home. I’m the worst.’
Saint is still sulking in the suite, as Kim says, ‘Oh, buddy. Life is so tough,’ as Kim adds in confession, ‘It’s really hard for me to be really strict and to discipline a lot.’
Speaking of being a single mum, Kim revealed how she wished she had a partner to ‘tap out’ with and then revealed how she had hired a manny – a slang term for a male nanny.
Kim said: ‘I do think that my household, and even in my family, it’s very female-dominated, and I recently hired a manny.
‘I really wanted a male around that was going to be picking them up and taking them to sports, and I was scared out of my mind to tell their dad (Kanye) that.
‘When he was dropping off the kids, Kanye introduced himself, played two-on-two with Saint and him, saying, ‘Hey if you’re gonna raise my son…’ cause he handed him the ball like really easily or something and he’s like ‘Don’t do that. Make him go get it himself. These are some of the rules that I would want.’
‘And I was like Oh my God, OK. That’s great.’
