Reality shows soaked in scandal, paparazzi at every turn, those ridiculously expensive shopping sprees and chiselled hubbies… footballer wives and girlfriends, whom the Brits refer to as WAGs, seemingly have it all.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Secrets?

Holidays in Sardinia and Ibiza are a luxury for footballer Peter Crouch and his belle, 23-year-old Abbey Clancy.

She’s admitted to the Daily Mail that she’s not a fan of soccer, but Irina Shayk — of model girlfriend £80 million football megastar Cristiano Ronaldo — can’t help but be a stylish WAG. Her it-girlfriend status catapulted her to prominence, and one need only look to her recent raunchy GQ spread.

With a story not unlike the Beckhams, Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole married Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Tweedy in 2006.

‘Man U’ striker Wayne Rooney and wife Coleen are arguably this week’s most buzzed about couple. For, having forgiven him for allegedly cheating on her with prostitutes a second time, England is now looking to this WAG as she is considered pivotal influence in whether or not the 25-yearold footballer from England transfers to Real Madrid.
