Jude Bellingham’s girlfriend’s mother reports living in a Los Angeles homeless shelter

Jude Bellingham, the England footballer, is preparing to face Croatia in the 2026 World Cup while navigating a public family dispute involving his girlfriend, Ashlene René Castro, and her mother, Tina Marie Young. Young, who resides in a homeless shelter in Los Angeles, has directed accusations toward both Castro and Bellingham, alleging that Castro lied to her and left her in a shelter.

In a letter posted from her TikTok account, Young addressed Bellingham directly, asking, “Who are you with my daughter who left her mother in the shelters lying to her? Do you lie to her too?” She described her living conditions, citing suffering from bedbugs and cockroaches, and noted that some individuals feel safer on the street than in shelters.

Castro, a 28-year-old social media personality, confirmed that her mother suffers from schizophrenia and stopped taking medication over a decade ago. Young responded from the Los Angeles shelter, criticizing Castro’s social media presentation and stating, “I’m not trying to be someone else, this is me who is real without makeup and who I am.”

Bellingham and Castro have been associated since January of last year. Castro, who has over 646,000 Instagram followers and 245,000 on TikTok, is frequently seen at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium to watch Bellingham play for Real Madrid and maintains a residence in Los Angeles. Bellingham has referred to Castro as “my love,” while Castro described him as “the most caring, kind, diligent and wonderful person I’ve ever known.”

Young expressed a negative stance toward the relationship, writing on Instagram, “No connection, nothing!” She claimed that Castro broke up with her and described Castro’s late father as “a sociopathic narcissist.” In another post, Young alleged attempts to silence her, including being detained in hospitals and injected with medicines, stating, “God saved me, and I am here telling the truth.”

Castro, who rarely discusses her personal life, addressed rumors in a lengthy video last year. She denied associations with certain celebrities and clarified that scandalous images published on adult sites did not belong to her. She also revealed work to establish a nonprofit organization to support persons with mental illness.

The dispute highlights the intersection of public scrutiny and private vulnerability, particularly regarding housing insecurity and mental health. As the community grapples with the realities of shelter life and family conflict, the call for mercy and truth resonates with the biblical imperative to care for the vulnerable and seek justice, as reflected in Proverbs 31:8-9 and James 2:15-16.
