Britney's 'London crush' identified as dad of two

Remember the mysterious man on a motorcycle Britney Spears plastered all over her Instagram account the other day?

Well, he’s been found. And it’s bad news for Britney, because he’s already taken.

Britney filmed 48-year-old dad of two Phil Lupton leaving work in London, complete with a soundtrack of the pop siren muttering “Very hot, very hot, very hot!” to herself. She also captioned the clip: “The men in London OMG.”

Luckily Phil, who works for Hearst Magazines in the capital, is taking Britney’s borderline stalking in his stride.

“If I took it that way I’d be big-headed as she couldn’t see me properly because I had a helmet and glasses on,” he told The Sun.

“I’m under no illusion it was probably the motorbike and the image she liked, rather than me.”

Don’t be too sure, Phil. When the paper told Britney her London “crush” has finally been found, she cooed: “OMG — I can’t believe you found him.”

Phil, who lives with wife Louise and daughters Millie, 11, and six-year-old Daisy in South West London, was alerted to the footage when a colleague spotted his distinctive crash helmet.

Phil posted an article about it the whole episode on Facebook, which he says his friends found “hilarious”.

“The kids love it and are enjoying the spotlight after their dad got picked out,” he continued. “They’ve been trying to prove to their friends it’s really me.”

And how about his wife Louise? Well, apparently she “can’t believe the fuss it’s made and finds it quite funny.”

Phew!
