Who is Estelle Behnke? All about Trent Alexander-Arnold’s girlfriend

Trent Alexander-Arnold has officially been presented as a Real Madrid player after ending his long association with Liverpool. At the unveiling, he was joined by his girlfriend, model and influencer Estelle Behnke, marking their first major public appearance together since the move.

The English right-back completed the transfer following the expiry of his Liverpool contract. However, Real Madrid paid a transfer fee to ensure Alexander-Arnold could be registered in time to compete in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.

During Thursday’s press conference in Madrid, it was confirmed that Trent will wear the No. 12 jersey at his new club. Throughout his Liverpool career, he famously wore the No. 66, but Spanish football rules don’t allow high squad numbers outside the 1–25 range for first-team players. In fact, No. 13 and No. 25 are usually reserved for goalkeepers in La Liga.

Who is Estelle Behnke? The Woman Beside Trent

Estelle Behnke, 25, is a rising fashion influencer with more than 75,000 Instagram followers. She began dating Alexander-Arnold in October 2024. Fans first noticed their connection when both posted from the exclusive Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds, where they stayed during a £6,000-per-night romantic getaway.

They’ve since been seen dining at Cibo, a celebrity hotspot in Hale, Cheshire, and traveling together on luxury breaks. Estelle recently shared snaps from Beverly Hills, while Trent had been representing England in matches against Andorra and Senegal.

Before dating Estelle, Trent was romantically linked with Iris Law, the daughter of actor Jude Law. Their relationship started during a Guess Jeans campaign and included trips to Notting Hill and Monte Carlo. Though their relationship ended, sources say the two remain on friendly terms.

Trent Reflects on Liverpool Chapter

At his presentation, the 26-year-old expressed his gratitude for his two decades at Liverpool: “I’m just eternally grateful for everything that I’ve been given. We all dream of these moments but, for me, it feels even more special because I’ve been here 20 years. It’s an amazing chapter of my life — it’s been my whole life.”
