Rosa, signed to Industry Model Management in Manchester, frequently appears on Kai’s Instagram stories. The pair grinned in a cozy selfie, with Kai sporting a £204 Casa Blanca Tennis Icon T-shirt and a diamond stud earring—a nod to his mother’s love for luxury fashion. Rosa complemented his sleek look in a simple white top.

Football Talent and Family Legacy
Kai isn’t just focused on his social life. The aspiring footballer, who joined Manchester United’s youth team in 2020, recently dazzled fans with a stunning goal for the Under-17s against Real Sociedad. After a skillful first touch and a powerful run past defenders, he coolly slotted the ball into the net, sparking jokes online about promoting him to the first team.

Despite his success, Kai faces pressure from his father’s towering legacy. Coleen revealed on the Stick to Football podcast that he’s already encountered harsh taunts during matches. “Once, a goalkeeper yelled, ‘Your dad’s s***,’ which threw him off during a penalty,” she shared. “But he’s strong-minded and usually shrugs it off.”

Designer Flair and Family Ties
Kai’s Instagram blends football highlights with glimpses of his trendy lifestyle. A recent bathroom selfie featured his black hoodie layered over the designer tee, paired with a baseball cap. Meanwhile, Rosa has been busy with modeling gigs, including an Iceland ad campaign with TV personality Josie Gibson.

While Kai’s future in football remains a focus, his parents continue to support his journey. Wayne and Coleen, often seen cheering him on, have navigated fame’s challenges themselves. For now, Kai balances his rising career, teenage romance, and a wardrobe worthy of a style icon—proving he’s carving his own path while honoring his family’s legacy.
