Here are a few mother–daughter ideas as Jude’s partner:

• Your daughter crawls into your lap after Jude tells her she can’t have another cookie, dramatically whispering, “Mummy... Daddy’s being mean.” Jude walks in, already knowing she’s trying to recruit you to her side.
• She’s caught copying Jude’s signature raised eyebrow in the mirror. When you laugh, she confidently tells you she’s “practicing.”
• You try to tell her to tidy her toys, and she responds with the exact same sarcastic tone Jude uses. You just stare at him while he tries—and fails—not to laugh.
• During one of Jude’s matches, she stands in the family section copying all of his celebrations and gestures, convinced she’s helping him play better.
• She insists on wearing one of Jude’s old England or Real Madrid shirts to bed because she wants to be “just like Daddy.”
• Jude catches the two of you painting his nails while he’s asleep. Your daughter proudly announces it was your idea before running away laughing.
• She’s only five minutes into being told off before she appears beside you with the world’s most dramatic pout, asking if you’ll “have a word with Daddy.”
• You find her standing in front of the TV after a match, recreating Jude’s celebrations and post-match interviews with a toy microphone.
• She loves sneaking into your wardrobe to borrow your shoes and jewelry, insisting she’s “getting ready for the Ballon d’Or gala with Daddy.”
• She asks you to braid her curls before school because “Mummy does it better than Daddy,” much to Jude’s fake offense.
• You overhear her telling another child, “My daddy plays football, but my mummy’s the boss,” leaving Jude speechless when you tell him later.
• Jude comes home from training to find the two of you on the living room floor building blanket forts. Your daughter immediately orders him to take his shoes off before entering because “Mummy made the rules.”
• She cuddles up with you after Jude leaves for an away match, quietly admitting she misses him. The two of you end up watching his highlights together until he FaceTimes from the hotel.
• She copies your little habits—your laugh, the way you do your skincare, the phrases you always say—while looking almost exactly like Jude, making everyone say she’s the perfect mix of both of you.
• After Jude playfully teases you, your daughter folds her arms, plants herself between you, and declares, “Don’t be cheeky to my mummy,” before turning around and giving him the exact same unimpressed look he gives referees.

Your daughter was Jude’s miniature in almost every way.

She had the same dark curls, warm brown eyes, expressive face, and mischievous smile that made it impossible for anyone to question who her father was. Even the way she walked, celebrated little victories, or folded her arms when she was unimpressed reminded everyone of him.

She’d inherited more than just his looks.

Every emotion flashed across her face before she spoke. A raised eyebrow, an exaggerated eye roll, an overly dramatic sigh—she wore her heart on her sleeve exactly like Jude did. She was endlessly cheeky, always finding harmless ways to wind the two of you up before flashing an innocent smile as if she hadn’t done a thing.

Jude swore she was impossible to tell off. The moment he tried, she’d wander over to you instead, curling up beside you with the most exaggerated pout imaginable. You’d smooth a hand through her curls while she quietly enjoyed the fact that she’d escaped another lecture.

Watching them together was like looking at the same person years apart. Their matching expressions, competitive streaks, playful nature, and effortless confidence made it obvious she was her father’s daughter.

Thankfully for you, she still had one soft spot.

Her mum.
