Odegaard ‘secretly marries pregnant partner’ just 18 months after being together

MARTIN ODEGAARD might be sidelined through injury - but he's keeping busy away from the field.

The Arsenal midfielder has reportedly secretly tied the knot with pregnant partner Helene Spilling.

Odegaard, 25, went Instagram official with the pro dancer, 27, last summer after she embraced him on the pitch at the end of the 2022-23 season.

In August, the pair announced they were expecting their first child together with an adorable baby reveal.

The 25-year-old Gunners skipper prefers to keep his private life behind closed doors.

Spilling was spotted out for a stroll in London last month wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring.

According to Norweigan outlet Verdens Gang, the Arsenal star has now changed his status to married in the national register.

Helene has also updated her name to Helene Spilling Odegaard.

A professional ballroom dancer, Spilling has won 17 gold medals in the Norwegian national championships.

She has also founded her own dance studio and launched a fashion brand. 

Helene was a former pro on "Skal vi Danse", Norway's version of Strictly Come Dancing, winning the competition in 2021.

Spilling has been spotted supporting her man at numerous Arsenal games over the past year.

In April, fans claimed Odegaard was "winning on and off the pitch" after his stunning Wag danced in the stands following the Gunners thrashing of Chelsea.

Odegaard is currently sidelined from action with an ankle injury.

The Gunners skipper hasn't played since picking up the issue during Norway’s 2-1 Nations League win over Austria in September.

He has recently returned to training and could be in contention to face Inter Milan on Wednesday.

Odegaard wrote in an Arsenal programme last month: "I’ve been out for a few weeks now, and have been working hard to get back as soon as possible.

"I feel like it’s close now, but although I haven’t been involved in the games lately, I feel I’ve still been able to use that time pretty well too.

"Hopefully I can come out of this period fresher and stronger and ready for the rest of the season.

"That’s the aim now, look at the positives and use this time in a good way. When I’m back I’m going to be feeling pretty good, I’m sure."
