Singer Madison Beer enjoyed a family day out with a twist this past Sunday, celebrating her mother's birthday at the American football game of her NFL star boyfriend, Justin Herbert. The festive occasion at SoFi Stadium saw the Los Angeles Chargers secure a convincing 31-14 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders.
A Sweet Suite Celebration
The pop star was joined by her mum, Tracie, in a luxurious stadium suite to mark the special day. The birthday celebrations momentarily took precedence over the sporting action, as captured in a video shared by Tracie. In the clip, guests within the suite are seen singing 'Happy Birthday' to Tracie, who stood before a towering stack of cupcakes adorned with lit candles. Madison then gleefully ran into frame, embracing her mother in a warm hug.
Romance on the Sidelines
Madison Beer and Justin Herbert, the Chargers' 6ft 6in quarterback, were first publicly linked in August. Their relationship became apparent when Herbert made a surprise appearance on the set of one of Beer's music videos. Since then, the couple have been spotted sharing a kiss on the sidelines before a Chargers game and have attended several high-profile sporting events together, including Los Angeles Lakers and Dodgers games.
A Cloud Over the Victory: Herbert's Injury
The otherwise joyous afternoon was overshadowed by a significant setback for the Chargers. Justin Herbert suffered a broken bone in his left hand during the first quarter of the game. Demonstrating notable resilience, he played the remaining three quarters with his non-throwing hand in a cast and a protective glove.
Herbert underwent surgery on the injured hand on Monday. His availability to play in the Chargers' crucial next game, a Monday night fixture against the Philadelphia Eagles, will be decided in the coming days. This injury comes at a pivotal moment for the team, who currently hold an 8-4 record and the first wild-card spot in the American Football Conference (AFC).
The Chargers are two games behind the Denver Broncos for the lead in the AFC West, a division they will close the regular season against on January 4 with an away game in Denver.
