Rice and Mount holidayed in Dubai together – even though they were supposed to be alone with their girlfriend

Mason Mount recounts a hilarious incident involving a snoozing Declan Rice during their holiday in Dubai.

“We were spending the day on a boat, enjoying the sun in Dubai. It was scorching hot, and Declan ended up getting quite sunburnt, turning as red as a tomato. He had to retreat indoors to cool off. Within thirty seconds of sitting down, he was already fast asleep, snoring away. So, naturally, I decided to have a bit of fun and sneak up on him, which definitely startled him awake. Right then, I realized that the video I captured was pure gold – probably the best one I’ll ever have.”
