One Magpie even climbed into a fountain
And she went sightseeing today, taking in the London Eye and St. Paul’s Cathedral before the biggest spectacle of all – thousands of raucous Newcastle fans.
Diletta drove past the army of supporters in a black cab and her face was a picture of shock.
Newcastle have not reached a major final for 24 years and fans have made the most of their trip to Wembley, including Premier League referee Michael Oliver.
He was spotted at a packed-out Trafalgar Square ahead of the big day.
Some fans even jumped into the fountain, with one stripping down to his boxer shorts as he was egged on by his fellow Mags.
Football presenter Diletta, 31, appears to be covering the game for DAZN but she will no doubt be cheering on partner Karius in what will be his Newcastle debut.
The German, 29, has not played a competitive game for two years but is set to start in place of the suspended Nick Pope and cup-tied Martin Dubravka.
But Magpies boss Eddie Howe is confident the keeper can deliver and use the final as an opportunity to resurrect his career.

He said: “It would be a magnificent chance for him to rewrite the story of his career. There’s been loads of stories through the times in football where these things have happened and there’s been a really positive outcome – or not.
“As soon as it happened (Pope’s red card) there was a feeling of whether there was another page in Karius’ career to write. Who knows what that chapter will look like?
“That’s the beauty of football. We never know what is going to happen. This unpredictability is what makes it such an amazing thing to watch.”
