Woman Upgraded To Business Class Travel Because They Thought She Was Lionesses Hero Chloe Kelly

Woman Upgraded To Business Class Travel Because They Thought She Was Lionesses Hero Chloe Kelly

She was wearing an England shirt, and the air hostess was convinced she was a member of the heroic team.

England's Lionesses recently made history when they won the Euro 2022 tournament, defeating Germany 2-1 in a first-of-its-kind victory.

The team have been treated like heroes ever since, and one woman found herself accidentally getting in on the action after she was mistaken for Chloe Kelly. Watch below:

Taking to TikTok after the incident, TikTok user Sophie shared a video of herself in business class that was captioned: "So I got a free upgrade to business because the air hostess thought I was Chloe Kelly."

The video hilariously begins with Sophie begin asked what she'd like for her lunch as she holds a giant menu, and she replies: "I don't know how this all works."

The air hostess then asks Sophie, who was wearing an England shirt, if she was playing the other night.

Sophie, however, was honest and admitted that she wasn't.

"You look like the girl who scored," the air hostess said, something she took as a 'massive compliment'.

"That's the best compliment you could possibly ever give me that," Sophie added when the air hostess confirmed that she thought she was Chloe Kelly.

She then shared another clip of herself looking very amused that she captioned: "Is this what it's like to be Chloe Kelly?!?"

The video then gave viewers a look around the very spacious seat before Chloe showed off her complimentary gifts including an eye mask and socks.

TikTok users were delighted by the case of mistaken identity and the video has been viewed almost 8K times at the time of writing.

One viewer simply called Sophie a 'legend' while another said that she should have claimed she actually was Chloe Kelly.

"I'd of been like yeah I scored the winner," joked a third viewer while a fourth questioned if Sophie had ever actually played football herself.

Chloe Kelly, in case it wasn't already clear enough, was one of the heroes of the Euro 2022 final.

After the historic game, she appeared on Good Morning Britain and explained that she was taking some time away from her phone so that she could really enjoy the moment.

"It hasn't settled in yet. I think I'm just living in the moment," she said.

On the off chance that your memory needs refreshing, despite being on the substitutes bench at the final, when she came on she ended up scoring the winning goal.

This secured the first ever major tournament trophy that England's women's team have won, making the 24-year-old a national hero.
