As a seasoned observer of relationships and their complexities, I find myself intrigued by the situation unfolding for Jermain. It seems he is treading a delicate path, moving between two mansions and the company of two women – Paige and Alisha.


On Monday night, soccer player Jermain Defoe was accompanied by his partner, Alisha LeMay, during an uncommon public outing the two of them had in London.

41-year-old ex-footballer of Tottenham Hotspur and England, who previously played football, was captured in photographs alongside Alisha (age 31), at the celebration dinner marking the 60th anniversary of the Chelsea eatery, Daphne’s.

At the festive gathering, Jermain appeared calm and comfortable wearing a dark hoodie matched with beige pants, along with a pair of sneakers, as he mingled with other attendees.

While Alisha wore a tight-fitting, sleeveless mini dress in brown, she added a touch of elegance with matching burgundy high heels.

Leaving her long blonde hair in loose curls, she accessorised with a pair of chunky gold earrings.

The pair, evidently past the issue of his past infidelity, gleamed with happiness as they sipped champagne and struck poses for pictures.

Also at the event, Byker Grove star Donna Air wrapped up in a brown fur coat which she wore over an burnt orange patterned maxi skirt. 

The actress put on a gray, knitted sweater underneath her skirt and boosted her silhouette with a pair of tall black boots.

She beamed with joy as she struck a pose alongside Spanish model Elen Rivas, who showcased her well-defined abs beneath a grey waistcoat, paired with a coordinating suit.

Lady Sabrina Percy presented an elegant appearance, donning a chic black jacket dress, paired with tights and a cross-body bag.

During the night, attendees had a special, intimate dining experience in the restaurant, savoring various canapes created by Daphne such as Wagyu Beef Tartare infused with Truffle, Seared Blue Fin Tuna accompanied by Caponata, and decadent Tiramisu Chocolate truffles.

During the night, the lively tunes of Francesco & the Rivieras, a five-member live band, filled the air while guests enjoyed various refreshing beverages such as cocktails, champagne, red and white wine.

Jermain and Alisha recently made a seldom appearance in public, which marks several months since it’s said that they took a crucial trip to the Dominican Republic following a tumultuous period in their relationship due to allegations of infidelity.

It seems the holiday worked wonders, as the pair put on a united front at the party.  

Although they now seem stronger than ever, it was reported back in February that, despite promising to make another effort, there were still tensions between them following reports of him being seen kissing another woman.

The footballer is aware he has ‘a lot of work to do’ to win back the influencer’s trust. 

At that moment, photos from The Sun depicted Jermain and Alisha readying themselves for a tropical vacation to the Caribbean, with the intention of rekindling their relationship.

A source told the publication: ‘To say things have been tense lately would be an understatement. 

Jermain acknowledges that he needs to put in a great deal of effort to mend things with Alisha, yet he’s been adamant about his dedication to salvaging their relationship. He’s even gone so far as to promise that he’ll go to any lengths necessary.

For the past several months, he’s been sticking to a good path because of some troubles that occurred earlier. He believes this journey might help strengthen their bond and serve as a demonstration of his affection for her.

TopMob has contacted a representative for Jermain Defoe for comment.

Following TopMob’s disclosure in January, it was made known that Alisha chose to offer Jermain a fresh opportunity. They pledged to rekindle their relationship in the year 2024, having been seen sharing a kiss with another woman previously.

According to a reliable insider, TopMob learned that Jermain and Alisha have reconciled. They celebrated Christmas and New Year’s together, enjoying every moment they had. Even though Jermain had work obligations, he made sure to spend quality time with Alisha too.

Alisha is aware that others might find it surprising if he gets another opportunity, yet she doesn’t let this concern her.

She’s content with Jermain, and together they’ve chosen to give it another shot this year, eager to see if they can truly make their relationship work.

‘They’ve been working together on a New Year fitness regime and are driving each other on.

Beyond merely being a romantic duo, they share a strong bond of friendship, and it seems that their circle of friends believes they were destined for each other. There’s an anticipation that 2024 will mark a significant milestone in their relationship.

According to the source, Alisha is highly admired by several wives and girlfriends within the soccer community. Many of these women consider her a good friend and hold her in high regard.

Everyone is crossing their fingers that things will turn out well for Alisha and Jermain so they can build a peaceful life and experience joy together.

Last year, Jermain and Alisha began their romantic relationship, approximately a month following his separation from Donna Tierney in January. This breakup occurred only seven months after their marriage ceremony.

In October 2023, the pair had their first appearance on the red carpet together, which later fueled speculation about their engagement. This suspicion arose when Alisha was observed flaunting a large diamond ring on her engagement finger.

However, just days later Jermain was spotted kissing new flame and wedding planner Paige, 29.

Following his multiple outings with Paige, Alisha subtly suggested some changes might be on the horizon by posting a cryptic message on Instagram to her followers that hinted at “every things have a purpose” and “seeking improvement”, which she eventually removed.

One day, you’ll understand that all the experiences you’ve had were actually blessings in disguise.

As a devoted adherent, I find solace in the belief that what seemed to be an unexpected turn of events was merely a prelude to something far greater. The sleepless nights filled with questions and doubts about why certain things happened to me, may soon find resolution and clarity.

However, it seems that Alisha has now granted forgiveness to Jermain, and on Monday, she posted a story on her Instagram, outlining her aims for the year 2024.

She expressed her desire to slow down, lose herself more in the moment and to ‘hold onto people tightly’.

Certain accounts suggest that Jermain divides his time between his two homes, each hosting a different romantic companion.

He’s been seen with two women at his residences; Alisha posted a picture of him in his Hertfordshire house just five days following photos of him driving Paige to his residence in Essex.

It’s been reported that Alisha moved into her Hertfordshire residence in May, and Paige moved into her Essex residence a month earlier, in April.

Although Jermain hasn’t made any public comments about the matter, there are allegations suggesting a unique setup exists, whereby the ex-footballer navigates between the two women.

According to a source, since his retirement, Jermain often stays active, but the constant travel between different mansions, visiting both Paige and Alisha, might be quite tiring for him.

It’s possible that he’s finding it difficult to decide whom he prefers to be in a relationship with. Apparently, both individuals are aware of each other and appear to be quite tolerant and supportive towards Jermain.

On the 9th of November, Jermain was spotted having a cozy dinner date with Paige at a nearby pub in Essex. Later, he drove her to his house, which was a mansion he shared with his former wife Donna.

On November 14th, Alisha disclosed that she had been visiting Jermain at his residence in Hertfordshire, as she took a selfie in his hallway.

TopMob contacted Jermain’s representatives for comment at the time.

Back in November of 2023, I subtly hinted at some truths surrounding ‘deceptions’ and ‘ruminations’ following speculations about my relationship with Jermain allegedly coming to an end. In a more straightforward conversation, I might say that I was alluding to some complexities we were navigating together.

She shared a snap to Instagram of a painting which read: ‘Cheer up you’re not dead yet. Hang on, let me overthink this. I won’t tell if you don’t.’

It continued: ‘It’s not me, it’s you. Everybody lies. Happiness is expensive. Rags to riches. If you ever leave me, I’m coming with you.’

After the dissolution of his marriage to Donna, a woman aged 40, Alisha and Jermain’s relationship began, only a few months following their grand £200,000 wedding in OK! Magazine in June 2022.

Initially, Jermain got to know the Scottish beauty therapist through liking her photos on various social platforms.

For the initial encounter, they came face-to-face in January 2021 at a charitable event. It was there that she requested from him, a personally autographed jersey.

Seven months after, he dropped to one knee in a luxurious Glasgow hotel costing £2,500 per night, which was adorned with illuminated ‘Marry Me’ signs and scattered rose petals, and popped the question to her.

In June 2022, the couple tied the knot in a grand wedding costing £200,000 at Cliveden House. Some of the 250 attendees were Tottenham’s assistant first team coach Ledley King and former West Ham player-turned-TalkSport commentator Carlton Cole.

Six months down the line, unfortunately, the pair parted ways. This was evident when Jerome was seen sharing photos sans his wedding ring and without any reference to his spouse.

A few short months passed, and Donna asserted that the footballer had been unfaithful to her, having discovered a love letter addressed to him.

It’s said that Jermain allegedly reached out to a nurse asking for intimacy, approximately a month following his extravagant marriage ceremony in October 2022.

It’s said that he sent a message to a woman through Instagram, inviting her for a ride in his Range Rover.

According to The Sun’s report, the youth academy coach started reaching out to a 40-year-old woman in July, having recently tied the knot the previous month. However, Jermain has refuted any allegations of misconduct.
