Chelsea have been criticised by football fans after Georgia Toffolo took to Instagram to post a video of herself watching them in action from a bed inside Stamford Bridge.
The Blues have installed a makeshift Hilton hotel room on a balcony in the Matthew Harding Stand, with a section of seats taken out as a result.
And Georgia was invited to watch a recent WSL match between Chelsea and Manchester United.
The 29-year-old uploaded footage of herself enjoying the game from a bed inside the ground, with a big smile on her face.

Yet many football fans aren’t happy and have vented their fury as a result.
“What in the posh f***ery is going on here,” said one user, while accompanying their message with sick emojis.
“This is everything that’s wrong with football,” raged a second supporter.
A third said: “Everything that’s wrong with football. Created by the poor and stolen by the rich.”
A fourth vented their fury by saying: “Cringeworthy. Football is being ruined by this sort of thing and posh people overtaking it. These American owners haven’t got a clue.”
A fifth weighed in with: “Nice to see the working man’s game ain’t lost its roots… Shocking.”
“I’m actually a bit embarrassed about this,” opined a sixth fan.
And a seventh said: “That is screaming out attention, get a grip will ya.”
Georgia looked comfy under the bed, wearing a white dressing gown with her blue Chelsea scarf draped around her neck.
The Blues announced last summer that Hilton Hotels would become their global hotel partner.
And many other Chelsea fans have criticised owner Todd Boehly for choosing to put the Hilton bed in the Harding stand.
As for the match itself, Chelsea were too strong for United.
Lauren James netted a sensational hat-trick, with Hayley Ladd scoring a consolation for the visitors.
Emma Hayes, speaking after the game, lavished praise on James by saying: “I’ve never seen a player like Lauren do the things she does individually.
“If you get tight to her, she’ll roll you. If you drop off of her, next time she makes a move, you think you’ve got her.

“She’s so explosive. She’s got a left and a right foot. Often players have got strong sides, but I think she can do it on both feet.
“I was impressed with her whole performance… I thought she carried out the game plan and her role in that to perfection.
“It changed in the second half with Mia (Fishel) coming out and I think she did that equally as well.
“She’s shown her qualities as a No 9 or No 10 and her finishing was second to none – the quality of that is a natural finisher.”
Discussing James with the BBC, Hayes continued: “Human beings are not simple. There are a lot of complexities involved with Lauren, but she is a genius footballer. I am happy for her.

“She wanted to demonstrate to the home fans that she could step forward, that she can do it as a 10, and a nine in the second half. Her hold up play is unbelievable.
“Everyone has to take turns in that [replacing Sam Kerr’s goals]. Lauren has done that today, Mia (Fishel) came on last week.
“There are a lot of young players out there that have to shoulder a lot of responsibility as the champions and they handled it superbly.”
