Midfield ace Jude Bellingham’s mum Denise, 54, and brother Jobe, 18, were also in the stands in Frankfurt.
Jarrod Bowen’s girlfriend Dani Dyer, 27, wore an England strip bearing his shirt No20 as she clutched a drink.
Meanwhile, Alan Shearer tore into England after a painful 1-1 draw with Denmark – and revealed the player he’d bring into help out Harry Kane.
The Three Lions‘ legend insisted there can be “no excuses” for a Euro 2024 display with “no energy, no pace”.
Kane‘s early opener in Frankfurt was countered by Morten Hjulmand’s stunner – with Shearer claiming the Danes deserved more than their point.
England are still two points clear in Group C, meaning they are likely to go through after Tuesday’s clash with Slovenia.
And skipper Kane appealed for “calm” – albeit admitting there would be “noise” as well as “disappointment” over Thursday’s performance.
However, Shearer believes the display offered nothing of encouragement.
The BBC pundit said after the final whistle: “You can see players lying on their back, they look absolutely shattered.
“There’s no excuse for that. No energy, no pace to the game.
“We didn’t run in behind until the last 10 or 15 minutes.
“We got caught too many times on the ball, too many sloppy passes.
“And in truth Denmark were the better team and deserved to win. There’s so much more to come. It’s really concerning.”
Shearer also reckons England have a tactical problem concerning Kane – and feels he has the answer.
The ex-Newcastle hero said: “He needs players in and around him. That’s why I’d have (Anthony) Gordon in the team.
“He has the energy, he has the ability to run in behind, he has the ability to run get up near him, whereas (Phil) Foden wants to play tight, play in the No10 role, very much like Harry.”
“He (Kane) is a brilliant goalscorer, he will always score goals, but what he does lack is a yard of pace and energy.”
Striker Kane told the BBC: “We know we can improve, We know there’ll be a bit of noise and disappointment back home.
“But it’s a time to stay calm, and we’ll get there step by step.”
