MILLIE BRIGHT has been soaking up some rays in the summer heatwave – after deciding to sit out the Lionesses’ Euro defence.
The Chelsea defender, 31, recently split from her fiancé Levi Crew.

Bright has been a regular feature in the Lionesses’ set-up since 2016, helping the team win the Euros in 2023.
She recently made herself unavailable for this summer’s Euro 2025, saying she was unable to give 100 per cent mentally or physically.
Away from the field, Bright has fallen “hook, line, and sinker” for her new personal trainer boyfriend.
The Sun exclusively revealed this week Millie’s new man was a married dad of seven who has already moved into her home.
Dave Zetolofsky, 39, is a martial arts enthusiast and former pro kickboxer.
And Bright appeared to be smitten as she soaked up some rays on Thursday afternoon.
Millie uploaded a series of snaps for her 450,000 Instagram fans, posing in the sunshine before hitting up a restaurant for dinner.
Lionesses centre-back Millie wrote: “Appreciating the little things.”
Millie met Dave after she began training at the 21st Century Combat gym in Redhill, Surrey.
A source told The Sun: “Millie and Dave’s relationship is no secret.
“They’ve been seen out and about, and in the gym together.
“You can understand that [Dave’s wife] Katie has found the whole thing pretty devastating.
“The fallout has been enormous but Millie has fallen hook, line and sinker for this guy.”
Bright started her career at Doncaster Belles after coming through Sheffield United’s youth setup.
She was snapped up by Chelsea prior to the 2015 season and has gone on to become one of their greatest ever players.
Bright has earned 88 caps for the Lionesses, scoring six goals.
The 31-year-old is currently the club captain and is contracted with the Blues until 2026.
Bright has told friends her new romance has nothing to do with her withdrawal from international duty this summer.
There is also no suggestion that the pair have cheated on their former partners.
