Kim Kardashian surprises fans as she attends soccer game during UK trip

Kim Kardashian sat back and relaxed in a swanky VIP suite at the Emirates Stadium for the Arsenal v Sporting Lisbon match on Thursday.

The megastar appeared to go almost unnoticed until the match was drawing to a close when she was spotted by cameras for BBC's Match of the Day.

Kim, 42, is said to be filming a secret documentary and was snapped alongside her son Saint, who is known to be a Gunners fan.

The businesswoman embraced the plunging UK temperatures as she wrapped up in an oversized white sweater to watch the soccer match which ended in a 1-1 draw.

She rocked a full face of makeup for her unexpected outing while her signature raven tresses cascaded over her shoulder as she rapped her arms around Saint.

According to reports, Kim and Saint, seven, are part of the team working on the documentary although the premise of the project is yet to be disclosed.

Ahead of the game, Kim took to her Instagram Stories to share snaps of an official programme alongside a massive collection of Prime Hydration – the official sponsor of the Gunners.

But in a joking manner, she penned alongside her upload: "SOS send help" before the match against the Portuguese team kicked off.

Fans of the team were left amazed after seeing the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star in the VIP suites, with one writing: "Someone tell me why Kim Kardashian is at the Arsenal game."

"How did Saint [West] become an Arsenal fan?" asked another.

While another joked that Kim wasn't allowed to return due to the "Kardashian curse" which they joked caused the injuries of William Saliba and Takehiro Tomiyasu.

But this isn't the first time Saint and Kim have shown their support for the North London team.

Earlier this year, the star took to social media to share snaps from Chicago's birthday party and Saint was seen wearing his Arsenal kit and surrounded by his famous family.

Commenting on Kim's Instagram post, which has more than 2million likes, one person wrote: "Omg Arsenal supporter," adding a praise hands emoji.

"Saint supports the right team," one fan exclaimed.

Sharing one of the pictures on Twitter, a third fan said: "Kim Kardashian’s son Saint repping an Arsenal shirt, he knows!!"

The tot is clearly a big sports fan as in December, Kim, who shares her four children with her ex-husband Kanye West, threw Saint an NFL-themed party as he turned seven.

Saint was pictured at an NFL match on his birthday with Kim making the most of his birthday party as he and his pals watched the LA Rams from a VIP box.
