You never know who you’ll run into during Fashion Month, when celebs from all industries flock to the style capitals to attend shows and, more importantly, mingle at exclusive parties. On Tuesday, the last day of a typical whirlwind Fashion Month, Bella Hadid kicked back with a low-key trip to Paris Saint-Germain’s (losing) soccer match against Real Madrid at the Parc des Princes arena in Paris — only to be seated next to possibly the VIP soccer player himself: David Beckham.

In photos from the game, many of which were shared by The Scottish Sun, Beckham and Hadid look excited to shake hands and introduce themselves, before proceeding to sit down and watch the match with only minimal conversation. The moments when they did chat, however, seem intriguing — what would the 42-year-old footballer turned family man and the 21-year-old supermodel have to talk about? A few theories: Beckham may have been recruiting Hadid to walk in wife Victoria Beckham‘s next fashion show or asking for tips on how to jumpstart 6-year-old daughter Harper‘s career on the catwalk. Meanwhile, Hadid could have been asking Beckham to sneak her into the upcoming royal wedding or milking him for details about the rumored Spice Girls reunion.

After several weeks of traveling around the world, you wouldn’t blame Hadid for zooming straight home to the U.S. after the soccer match. But, apparently, there’s no rest for the hardworking model, who revealed on her Instagram Story Wednesday that she was still in Paris, snacking on croissants and putting in some time as the face of Dior Beauty. Clearly, you don’t become one of the world’s highest-paid models by getting a solid eight hours of sleep every night.
