Hemp has revealed that one of the ways she likes to unwind away from the football pitch is to play with Lego. The Lionesses and Manchester City is a big fan of Star Wars Lego in particular but has admitted a recent favourite creation is now in hundreds of pieces once again.

WHAT HAPPENED?

"This a really sad story because I've done a Yoda. And I was painting my wall the other day and I was trying to move a bookshelf on my own," she told Sky Sports. "I was pushing it and pushing it and suddenly this thing that felt like a brick dropped on my head and it was Yoda. He smashed into thousands of pieces and I was absolutely devastated."<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">What is Lauren Hemp's favourite Lego creation?... 😂👀 <a href="https://t.co/nFjjiZRcba">pic.twitter.com/nFjjiZRcba</a>— Sky Sports WSL (@SkySportsWSL) <a href="https://twitter.com/SkySportsWSL/status/1728360380177461571?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 25, 2023</a></blockquote>

WHAT LAUREN HEMP SAID

Hemp may have been struggling with her Lego creations off the pitch but on it she remains an integral player for both club and country.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Hemp isn't the only high-profile football who loves playing with Lego. Former Manchester United and England star David Beckham is also a big fan, with Ben Foster previously revealing how he would bring entire sets on international duty."He used to bring Lego sets to England. He would go into his room and just do Lego all night," he told his Fozcast podcast. "‘It would proper chill him out. He would just sit there, do his Lego set, have a nice time. Lovely."

DID YOU KNOW?

Hemp and Manchester City take on an in-form Tottenham in the league on Sunday in the WSL. Spurs are on an eight-match unbeaten streak but have lost their last four meetings with City.
