A waiter has been suspended over this selfie snap with football ace Robin van Persie. Kyson Forde asked the Manchester United star to pose with him at the posh Cliff restaurant in Barbados. But the stoppage time landed Kyson and another worker in trouble as they had broken strict rules banning staff from using mobile phones in the dining area.
A source said: “Maybe Kyson shouldn’t have bothered RVP when he was out for a meal, but it seems an over-reaction.
“Kyson is a massive Man U fan and this was his one chance to get a snap with his hero.”
Striker Van Persie was in the Caribbean for a break with wife Bouchra, son Shaqueel, eight, and five-year-old daughter, Dina after guiding Holland to a third-place finish at the World Cup in Brazil.
The £250,000-a-week star scored four goals at the tournament, including a stunning header in their 5-1 demolition of holders Spain.
The restaurant is on the island’s west coast, where stars such as X Factor judge Simon Cowell, Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson and Match of the Day host Gary Lineker are holiday regulars.
During the evening, Kyson, who earns about £1,100 a month including tips, asked for a photo with his hero.
Van Persie agreed, but the dream snap almost cost the waiter his job.
