The Most Beautiful Wives And Girlfriends Of Soccer’s Top Players
These 20 soccer players — or football players, depending on which part of the world you’re in — are at the top of their game and renowned throughout the world. But chances are they couldn’t have got so far without their supportive partners. In the U.K., they’re known as WAGs (for wives and girlfriends). So, let’s take a look at the most accomplished, talented, and beautiful women in the wonderful world of soccer.
1. Victoria Beckham
Is there a more famous WAG in the business than Victoria Beckham? She’s a top fashion designer, and of course she used to be a Spice Girl. She and her bandmates already had the world at their feet when Victoria encountered a young soccer player named David at a charity match. She gave him her phone number, and before they knew it they were one of the biggest super-couples on the planet.
Married to: David Beckham
Victoria and David have been married for decades now and their love has never faded. Victoria wrote a letter to herself in a 2016 issue of Vogue magazine where she said, “Love at first sight does exist. It will happen to you in the Manchester United players’ lounge — although you will get a little drunk, so exact details are hazy.” And she also told her past self, “Learn more about football, especially the offside rule.” Hopefully she knows it now!
2. Georgina Rodriguez
Georgina Rodriguez came from relatively humble beginnings. Once upon a time she was a waitress, then an au pair, then a Gucci shop assistant. It was while working at this last job that she met soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo — and now she’s mega-famous. She commands an Instagram following of 30 million these days. A true Cinderella story for the internet age!
In a relationship with: Cristiano Ronaldo
People wondered if Cristiano would find love again after splitting from his long-term girlfriend Irina Shayk, yet in 2015 love is exactly what he found with Rodriguez. Now, the pair of them have children together — but sadly they lost one of the children, one half of a pair of twins, shortly after birth. Not even that tragedy was able to drive a rift between the couple, though, and they’re still together.
