Holy. Hell. I wasn't prepared for these photos when they landed in my inbox this morning. Tolami Benson just casually breaking the internet while the rest of us struggle to look presentable for a Tesco run.

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka's girlfriend absolutely killed it at what appears to be Central Cee's London show last month. And when I say killed it, I mean MURDERED the fashion game in an all-black ensemble that had me questioning every outfit choice I've ever made in my 32 years on this planet.

That Outfit Though...

Those black leather trousers? Criminal. The plunging top? Someone call teh fashion police. I'm sitting here in my ancient joggers feeling personally attacked by how effortlessly cool she looked.

Benson shared several snaps from what seems to be Central Cee's O2 Arena performance in late April (part of his "Can't Rush Greatness World Tour" - which I desperately wanted tickets for but couldn't justify dropping £85 when my car needed new brakes).

She wasn't just serving looks either. There's this adorable photo of her cuddling what might be the cutest dog I've seen this year. My heart.

Private Lives & Public Appearances

What fascinates me about these two is how they've managed to keep their relationship largely under wraps since around 2020. They don't even follow each other on social media! My ex and I couldn't even last three days without stalking each other's Instagram stories, and these two are out here showing actual restraint.

Despite their privacy, Benson's been spotted supporting her man from the stands regularly. Remember during Euro 2024? She was there with the rest of the WAG contingent, looking absolutely flawless while I was watching matches in my living room with crisp crumbs down my shirt.

Champions League Drama Unfolding

Last month she was cheering on Saka at the Bernabeu during that nail-biter against Real Madrid. God, what a rollercoaster that match was! Saka missed that early penalty (I nearly threw my remote through the TV), but then redeemed himself with that gorgeous goal in the second half.

Arsenal's Champions League journey continues tonight against PSG. They're trailing 1-0 after Tuesday's first leg (thanks to Dembele's early strike), but I've got a feeling Saka might just pull something special out of the bag at Parc des Princes.

Instagram Can't Handle Her

The comments on her post were predictably thirsty. "Stunning," "Star girl," "Gorgeous," and my personal favourite: "Ok baddie, in awe of you forever." Same, random Instagram user. Same.

With over 206,000 followers watching her every move, Benson somehow manages to stay relatively low-key while still serving absolute looks. It's witchcraft, I tell you.

Will They Break Their Trophy Drought?

Arsenal haven't won the Champions League before - their only final appearance was that heartbreaking loss to Barcelona back in 2006. I still remember watching that match at my mate Dave's house. We were convinced this was their year until Belletti crushed our dreams.

If they do manage to overturn this deficit against PSG, you can bet Benson will be there looking impossibly glamorous while the rest of us watch nervously through our fingers.

Honestly though, I'm just as interested in what she'll wear to the match as I am in the result. Is that wrong?

Fashion goals aside, here's hoping Arsenal can pull off something special tonight. And if they don't? Well, at least Saka has something pretty spectacular to come home to.
