Fired Chelsea Medic Eva Carneiro weds, no Blues invited

Chelsea’s former first team doctor Eva Carneiro married her partner and business consultant Jason De Carteret in London on Wednesday, reports Daily Mail.

Ms Carneiro, who is suing Chelsea and team boss Jose Mourinho for constructive dismissal, did not invite even a single Chelsea player to her wedding.

The 42-year-old Gibraltar-born sports physician looked radiant in a sleeveless wedding dress with lace detailing and a train.

The wedding between the ex-Chelsea physio and her husband was attended by former players, including goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer, who now plays for Leicester City.

Ms Carneiro was born in Gibraltar to a Spanish father and an English mother. She studied medicine at the University of Nottingham.

She then headed to the Australasian College of Sports Physicians before completing an MSc in Sport and Exercise at London’s Queen Mary University.

She joined Chelsea in 2009 as reserve-team doctor and two years later, former Blues boss Andre Villas-Boas promoted her to the first-team bar.

Before experiencing the men’s game, she worked under Hope Powell as part of the doctors training with the England women’s football team.

Carneiro, who supports Spanish giants Real Madrid, has spoken about her love of other sports – saying she enjoyed ballet and riding as a teenager before focusing her attention on football. She also likes to surf.

As one of the few female top sports physios in the world, Carneiro has gained quite a following.

She has previously revealed that 80 per cent of her fan mail comes from young girls keen to follow in her footsteps.

She has also spoken of her own dismal role models while growing up, criticising the lack of powerful, independent female physicians.

She told The Gibraltar Magazine in 2009: ‘In every programme I’ve ever watched in my life about female doctors, the woman has been hyper-sexualised – she gets off with Tom Cruise – and it’s all happy endings or she’s not present. Or she’s a lesbian.’

Ms Carneiro’s new husband, Mr De Carteret, is a polar explorer, motivational speaker and business consultant.
