Why Jamie Vardy's daughter Ella isn't in ITV reality show The Vardys with his other children and who her mum is
The footballer stars in the show with wife RebekahJamie Vardy and his wife Rebekah have lifted the lid on their life behind the lens for ITV’s The Vardys – but fans are wondering why his daughter isn’t in the show with their other children.
The professional footballer, 39, let the cameras document his big move from Leicester City to Cremonese in Italy, which saw his family follow in tow.
Jamie has three children with 44-year-old Rebekah, while she also has two – Megan and Taylor – from two past relationships.
Megan, 20, and Taylor, 15, both feature in The Vardys, leaving viewers wondering about Jamie’s other child.
Here’s a look into his daughter Ella, who her mum is and why she isn’t in the ITV reality show too.
Who is the mum of Jamie Vardy’s daughter Ella?
Jamie Vardy’s eldest child is his daughter Ella. She was born in 2010, making her around 16 years old.
Jamie welcomed Ella into the world while in a relationship with his former partner Emma Daggett. The couple were together when Jamie was still playing non-league football and before he found fame.
Jamie was just 22 when they met in 2008, while Emma was only 20. The couple’s relationship reportedly ended in 2010 before Jamie moved to Halifax Town – but not before they welcomed daughter Ella.

Two years later, Jamie landed a £1million move from Fleetwood Town to Leicester City. He met Rebekah two years after that in 2014.
Emma deliberately keeps herself and her daughter out of the public eye. Neither have a prominent social media presence and little is know about them.
Did Ella attend Jamie’s wedding to Rebekah?
According to The Sun, Ella did not attend Jamie’s lavish wedding with Rebekah in Cheshire in 2016. Jamie’s own mum and stepdad also snubbed the lavish affair.
A source told the publication at the time: “[Emma] wouldn’t even allow Ella to attend dress fittings with the other young bridesmaids and most recently has put a total ban on her attending the wedding at all.
“Jamie is worried that the ex’s actions will make Ella feel outcast from his family unit and he wants more than anything to see her regularly and have her at there wedding.”
The newspaper had previously stated that Emma had claimed Jamie only saw Ella “once a month”.
Ella has not been mentioned in The Vardys on ITV. She was also absent from last month’s Netflix documentary, Untold UK: Jamie Vardy.
