Inside Jamie Vardy & wife Becky’s plans for US move with talks for role in huge TV show & new football club
THE Vardys are eyeing a move to America after Becky held talks with Stateside TV bosses — while Jamie is wanted by MLS footie sides.
We can reveal Wag Becky, 43, is a target for the makers of hit US reality shows including Netflix real estate smash Selling Sunset.
And Jamie, 38, who announced ten days ago he will be leaving Leicester City, has US teams including San Diego FC and Wayne Rooney’s ex club D.C. United interested in his signature.
A move would see the couple branch out to become famous on both sides of the Atlantic like Posh and Becks, and even the Kardashian reality TV clan.
It would also represent a “fresh start” after the Wagatha Christie saga that saw Becky take on Coleen Rooney in court.
A source said: “The US is the most likely next move for the Vardys and is partly because Becky has had interest in TV work there.
“She was in talks with the makers of Selling Sunset earlier this year. They wanted her to appear as the potential buyer of a luxury home there.
“That stalled because of the California wildfires in January but could still happen.
“If it does, the show is a great ‘shop window’ for stars in the US to go on to other things.
“And other networks over there are aware of her because of her high profile through starring on I’m a Celeb and also the Wagatha case.
“It would also represent a fresh start for them and their family and a chance of moving on from recent events in the UK.
“But it does depend on what football offers Jamie receives as he’s still the main breadwinner.
“Jamie probably has a couple of years left in the game, and a lot of older players like him end up in the US.
“He likes the idea of America, and could even end up with Beckham’s Inter Miami side.
“But both Wrexham and Birmingham are still possible over here — and have their own Hollywood links.”
Striker Jamie joined Leicester, nicknamed the Foxes, from non-league Fleetwood in 2012 and has won the 2015-16 Premier League title plus the 2021 FA Cup.
The couple, who wed in 2016, have three children together.
Becky also has two daughters from a previous relationship and is stepmum to Jamie’s daughter from a previous romance.
