“Don’t come to Stamford Bridge unless you’re singing!” says £96,000-per-week Chelsea star wife
“Thiago Silva’s wife, Belle da Silva, has stirred controversy with a social media post condemning Chelsea fans who booed during their 1-0 loss to Manchester City. Silva played in the game while his wife watched from a box at Stamford Bridge. Despite the majority of fans remaining quiet, Mrs. Silva began singing “Come on Chelsea” in response to the boos.”

“Mrs. Silva’s comments come as her husband’s team struggles in the Premier League, currently sitting in tenth place with only one win in their last eight games. This is not the first time that Silva’s wife has caused controversy with her public statements about Chelsea.”
After the Blues drew 2-2 with Tottenham at Stamford Bridge in August, she tweeted: ‘Today I went to Stamford Bridge, and I noticed that the photos changed around the stadium. But I don’t see a photo of @tsilva3 anywhere. Why @ChelseaFC?’

“In April of last season, Belle Silva defended her husband after he received criticism for his performance in a 4-1 loss against Brentford, claiming that he was being unfairly judged for not attacking enough.”
“Mrs. Silva made these comments after she had previously criticized ex-Chelsea player Timo Werner for missing several chances and celebrated Tottenham’s victory over Chelsea on the final day of last season, which cost Chelsea automatic qualification for the Champions League. In her defense of her husband, she pointed out that he had just arrived at the club, had played for Brazil, and was very tired at the age of 37, but was still performing well. She emphasized the need to respect him and acknowledged that he is not a machine, but rather a human being who needs rest.”
“Despite Mrs. Silva’s comments about the Chelsea fans, Graham Potter praised their efforts and asked for patience. In his post-match comments, Potter said that the team takes responsibility for their poor performance but asked for understanding of the challenges they have faced and the emotions that are running high.”
“Potter went on to say that the team will try to weather the current difficulties and that he believed the crowd appreciated the team’s effort and supported them. He specifically praised the fans for their fantastic and supportive behavior during the game.”
