50 Soccer Players And The WAGs Who Have Stuck By Them (Or Not)
Phil Foden & Rebecca Cooke
Phil Foden has made a mercurial rise in his soccer career. He made his debut as a 17-year-old in 2017 and has since staked his claim in the Manchester City starting lineup, making more and more appearances as the seasons have passed. He also made it into the England national team and was featured at Euro 2020.
Things have been going equally steady with Foden and his childhood sweetheart Rebecca Cooke. Both lead pretty private lives, but it’s known that they share a son and that in 2021 he announced that Cooke is pregnant with another baby.
Marcus Rashford & Lucia Loi
Marcus Rashford is more than a soccer player. He went beyond his on-field duty during the 2020 lockdown when he campaigned for school meals to continue even during the lockdown. This made him a favorite even with rival fans and also earned him an MBE.
He didn’t need any of this to attract his girlfriend, Lucia Loi. They have been dating since the age of 15, and Loi has been seen at games regularly supporting Rashford. It’s been reported that they called time on their relationship in 2021 amid lockdown pressure, but The Sun newspaper also reported that they could still reconcile in the future.
Jack Grealish & Sasha Attwood
Jack Grealish is one of England’s brightest young soccer stars. He is so highly praised that Manchester City forked out $139 million in 2021 to bring him in from his boyhood club Aston Villa. This also led to a massive pay rise, which no doubt made him even more popular with the ladies.
Not that he needs to be any more popular with them since he is dating Sasha Attwood. They have been together since 2011, before either hit their career highs and have even been dubbed Sash and Jacks by tabloids, which is similar to Posh and Becks, used for the famous Beckhams.
Harry Kane & Katie Goodland
Harry Kane and Katy Goodland go way back to their school days. There was a photo doing the round in 2021 of the two of them, in their early teens, posing together for a photo with David Beckham. Not that they were dating at that time, but they’ve always been around each other.
In 2015, Kane revealed to Esquire that he is dating Goodland. They got engaged in 2017, and by 2019 they were married. They also have three children together, the youngest of whom is a son born in 2020. Kane was an instrumental player for England as they reached the Euro 2020 final held in 2021.
Alan Shearer & Lainya Shearer
If this were “Jeopardy,” then the answer Alan Shearer would be linked to the question, “Who is the highest goalscorer in Premier League history.” But before Shearer became the most prolific goalscorer in the English game, he was a young striker at south coast club Southampton.
This is where he cut his teeth, and this is also when he met his wife, Lainya. They married in 1991 and have three children together. She comes from a time before the glamor of WAGs, and Shearer himself described her as quiet and awkward with the attention his profile brings. He was inducted into the “Premier League Hall of Fame” in 2021.
David James & Amanda Salmon
David James is either one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League’s history or one of the worst. He has been described as both and has been a talisman for his team’s success and the scapegoat for their failures. At one point, he was even dubbed calamity James due to an error-ridden period in his career.
He was married to Tanya James, with whom he had four children before they split in 2005. He then rekindled a romance with childhood sweetheart Amanda Salmon, and the couple has been together since 2007. In 2021 James hosted a radio show called “Football Scores with David James.”
Declan Rice & Lauren Fryer
Declan Rice was an important part of the England squad that reached the final of the Uefa Euro 2020 tournament, which was hosted in 2021. While they didn’t win it, Rice still accounted for himself very well and has been in demand, with several high-profile clubs, including Manchester United, asking about his services.
While his career trajectory will eventually see him win some major honors, he remains grounded and is currently dating his high school sweetheart Lauren Fryer. They don’t share any children and aren’t married, although, like those career accolades, Rice’s life with Fryer is cast in stone, it seems.
Frank Lampard & Christine Lampard
Frank Lampard is an icon of the modern game and has won everything there is to in… except the World Cup. He is best known for his time at Chelsea, where he won the Premier League, FA Cup, Football League Cup, and the Uefa Champion’s League, some more than once.
He has been married to TV personality Christine Bleakley since 2015. She has worked for the BBC and ITV and has hosted shows like “Daybreak,” “The One Show,” and “Dancing On Ice.” Lampard and Bleakley have two children, the youngest of whom was born in 2021. He has two more daughters for his engagement to Spanish model Elen Rivas.
Gareth Southgate & Alison Southgate
These days Gareth Southgate is the stylish, suit-wearing manager of the England national soccer team. During his playing days, he was a classy, ball-playing center-back who could play in midfield. This means he still has the same traits he did when his wife Alison married in 1997.
He was playing for Aston Villa at the time, part of the rampant teams of the mid to late ’90s who won the Leauge cup, flew high in the league, and also made the FA Cup Final. Together he and Alison have two children and live in a country house in North Yorkshire. In 2021 he guided England to the Euro 2020 final.
Gary Lineker & Danielle Bux
Before there was Alan Shearer, Gary Lineker was the top English striker in world football. He was renowned for his continental style of play and playing off the shoulder of the last defender. He learned some of that style by playing in Spain for Barcelona, where he also must have picked up his taste in women.
Lineker married Danielle Bux, an exotic-looking Welsh model. They tied the knot in September 2009 and went together so well that they won over $40,000 for charity on the game show “Mr and Mrs.” They divorced in 2016, citing Lineker not wanting more children. He has four with his ex-wife Michelle Cockayne.
Kylian Mbappe & Alicia Aylies
It’s almost fitting that one of the hottest talents in world football and the 2017 Miss France pageant winner should become an item. The couple started dating in 2018, a year after Aylies was crowned and the same year Mbappe became a world champion. She was seen at many 2018 World Cup matches supporting her man.
Aylies became the first woman of French Guyanese descent to be crowned Miss France. She has 447k followers on Instagram and is often sharing posts of her working as a model on locations around the world. In 2021 Mbappe became only the third player in history to score a Champions League hat-trick against Barcelona.
Robert Lewandowski & Anna Lewandowska
Robert Lewandowski has consistently been one of the premier strikers in football. The Bayern Munich striker has been a top marksman for his club and helped them dominate the German league and win the Champions League. Being the winner that he is, Dzeko has also been successful in the love department.
While he is one of the most feared strikers in the game, he probably quakes in his boots for his wife, Anna Lewandowska. She is a karateka and also a personal trainer. She is also a three-time medalist at the world championships seniors. They have been married since 2013 and share three children.
Lionel Messi & Antonela Roccuzzo
He may have changed clubs after many years, but Lionel Messi is still a one-woman man. It was a calamitous summer of 2021 for the Argentine, who had initially worked out a deal to stay at his boyhood club Barcelona, but after that couldn’t be fulfilled, he moved to French side Paris Saint Germain instead.
Of course, their bond is stronger than the one he had with the Spanish club. They’ve known one another since the age of five and dated for nearly a decade. They eventually married in 2017, with two of their three kids already born by the time they did that.
Michael Owen & Louise Bonsall
Michael Owen is one of only a handful of British players to win the Ballon d’Or. During his playing days, he was renowned for his electric pace and finishing ability that saw him become one of the most feared strikers in the game. But one person who has never feared him is Louise Bonsall… his wife.
They’ve known each other since primary school, having met in 1984. Twenty years later, they got engaged and married in 2005, wearing informal clothing at a registry office. They had a stylish reception the following day, though. The couple shares four children, and Owen returned to do expert analysis for “BT Sport.”
Ezekiel Elliott & Halle Woodard
Ezekiel Elliott and Halle Woodward reportedly started dating in 2017, just one year after the Dallas Cowboys selected Elliott in the 2016 NFL Draft. Ever since joining the big league, Elliott’s been impressing his fans and has proved to be one of modern-day American football’s most promising running backs, landing a commendable three Pro Bowl appearances.
As for Woodward, she’s a very private person with no public Instagram account. Details about her life are scarce, but we do know that she used to work as a Dallas bartender before completing a nursing degree at Iowa State University.
Jamie Carragher & Nicola Hart
Jamie Carragher played for Liverpool as a defender throughout his career of 17 years. He served as the club’s vice-captain for ten years and held the record as their second-longest serving player. Since his retirement, he has become a pundit and commentator for Sky Sports.
Before finding fame, Carragher has long found his better half through his childhood sweetheart Nicola Hart. They have known each other since they were kids and even went to primary school together. The lovebirds had a beautiful wedding at Weston Park and are blessed with two children. Carragher’s son James is also establishing a football career and plays for Wigan Athletic F.C.
Dele Alli & Ruby Mae
Delle Ali has not been in the best form on the pitch lately. The Tottenham Hotspurs Youngster was at one point the biggest young talent in England. But has been unconvincing recently, with fans at one point suggesting he be sold. Maybe it’s because he’s been playing too much “Fortnite?”
That could be the case since it was also the reason for his eventual breakup with model Ruby Mae. They started dating in 2016, but Mae called time on the relationship in 2021, citing Ali’s many hours playing games as the reason for her ending their relationship. It’s unclear whether Ali is seeing anyone else.
Jamie Vardy & Rebekah Vardy
Jamie Vardy came out of absolutely nowhere to become one of the most feared strikers in the Premier League. He gained fame for scoring in 11 consecutive games, setting a new record along the way to helping Leicester City win the league. One year after this feat, in 2016, he tied the knot with model Rebekah Nicholson.
She was working as a club promoter when they met in 2014, and they quickly became acquainted. They share six children: three of their own, two from Rebekah’s previous marriage and another from a previous relationship of Vardy’s. Vardy bought a small stake in the American soccer club Rochester Rhinos in 2021.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain & Perrie Edwards
Besides having a unique double-barreled surname, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is also a uniquely talented footballer who has played for Arsenal and Liverpool. His talents have also been instrumental in helping his teams win honors, including three FA Cup wins with The Gunners and the Champions League and Premier League with Liverpool.
“The Ox,” as he is affectionately known, gained global fame for his exploits, but his girlfriend, Perrie Edward, can match him stride for stride. She is a member of the world-beating pop group Little Mix, which is one of the biggest selling girl groups in history. They have been dating since 2016 and had their first child in 2021.
Mesut Özil & Amine Gülşe
Mesut Özil was one of the stars of the German national team that won the 2014 World Cup. This gave him the profile he needed to make big-money moves to the likes of Real Madrid and Arsenal. He may have lost the form that made him the top playmaker in the game, but he is still sought after.
Especially by his wife, Turkish-Swedish model/actress Amine Gülşe. The five-time German footballer of the year and former Miss Turkey have been dating since 2017 and tied the knot in a 2019 wedding ceremony. Gülşe gave birth to their first child in 2020.
Álvaro Morata & Alice Campello
Spanish striker Alvaro Morata is as well known for his James Bond type good looks as he is for his goalscoring prowess. The Juventus striker, who also enjoyed spells at Chelsea and started his career at Real Madrid, has made many a woman’s heart skip a beat with those looks.
But he is a one-woman man and has been married to model and fashion designer Alice Campello since June 2017. According to Alice, Morata was smitten with her. They have three children, including a set of twins, all born on the 29th of a month. Morata changed his shirt number from 9 to 29 when the twins were born.
Radamel Falcao & Lorelei Taron
At one point in the 2010s, Radamel Falcao stood toe to toe with Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi in the goalscoring department. While things became a little shaky for him after returning from injury in 2014, he has rekindled some of his forms and joined Spanish team Rayo Vallecano in 2021.
The one constant in his life has been his wife, Lorelei Taron, who he met in an Argentine church and has been married to since 2007. Taron admitted that at one point, she wanted to divorce her husband, but they worked through it, remarried in 2018, and had their fourth child in 2020.
Ashley Cole & Sharon Canu
Alongside Victoria Beckham, Ashley Cole’s ex-wife Cheryl was one of the original WAGs. So his current partner, Sharon Canu, has some big shoes to fill. Not that she isn’t capable, as a model herself. She is Italian by birth, although she has resided in America for work purposes.
It’s been reported that Cole and Canu met while he was playing in Italy for AS Roma. They have two children together, a son born in 2016 and a daughter born in 2018. In 2021 he was announced as the assistant coach of England Under 21 national team. He also coaches at the Chelsea Football Club youth academy.
Robbie Keane & Claudine Keane
Robbie Keane made his fame as a striker for clubs like Tottenham Hotspurs, Liverpool, and Major League Soccer’s LA Galaxy. But his wife Claudine Keane is also no slouch. She is a model and pageant contestant who won Miss Ireland, but she isn’t all about beauty though.
She has a degree in finance from Dublin University and also worked as a newspaper columnist too. Robbie and Claudine got married in 2008 and have two sons who go by Robert and Hudson. Robbie left his post as assistant manager of Championship team Middlesbrough; he also still does punditry work for Sky Sports.
Edin Džeko & Amra Silajdžić
Edin Džeko is an old-school center-forward who is big, strong, and good in the air. He was also instrumental for Manchester City when they won the Premier League in 2011. He scored the equalizer in the title-deciding match against Queens Park Rangers. He is also famous for scoring four \in one game against Tottenham Hotspurs in that same season.
To make sure that all things happen in threes, Dzeko started dating Amra Silajdžic that season. She is a model and actress from Bosnia and got her big break when she won the “Metropolitan Top Model” competition in France. They got married in 2014 and share three children.
Graziano Pellé & Viktoria Varga
Best known for his two seasons in the Premier League with Southampton, Graziano Pellé made his mark in a big way on the south coast. He scored 30 goals in 68 appearances for “The Saints” and endeared himself to the club’s fanbase before leaving them for Chinese club Shandong Luneng. He also had a spell at Dutch club Feyenoord.
He scored off the field when he married Hungarian model Viktoria Varga. She moved with Pellé to China, and while he has been banged in 52 goals in 106 appearances, She landed numerous modeling gigs for magazines while growing her following on Instagram. Pellé, meanwhile, moved back to Italy in 2021, playing for Parma.
Sergio Sánchez & Elisabeth Reyes
Sergio Sánchez Ortega is the epitome of a journeyman. The versatile player has played for various clubs in Spanish La Liga, including Espanyol, Racing de Santander, Málaga, and Sevilla. He won the Copa Del Rey with the latter. While he’s been moving from club to club in his career, he has been a one-woman man in relationships.
And who would be, when your wife is Miss Spain 2006, Elisabeth Reyes. They tied the knot in 2014 and have been inseparable ever since. Reyes has been with other soccer players, though, including Paris Saint Germain’s Sergio Ramos. In 2020 Sánchez was released from his contract with Spanish club Cádiz.
Bastian Schweinsteiger & Ana Ivanović
Bastian Schweinsteiger is a serial winner who led the German national team to victory at the 2014 World Cup. Besides that achievement, he also dominated the German Bundesliga with Bayern Munich and won the Champions League with them as well. Over and above that, he also won the FA Cup with Manchester United.
Off the field, he is married to another winner in Serbian tennis player Ana Ivanovic. When they met, Ivanovic was hot stuff and had won the French Open. Both of them have retired from their respective sports, Ivanovic in 2016 and Schweinsteiger in 2019. They share two children.
Tammy Abraham & Leah Monroe
Tammy Abraham is a promising young soccer player known for his energy, speed, and skill. He showed great skill and potential and was considered another big up-and-comer when he broke into the Chelsea first team. But he has since left that club and, in 2021, signed a five-year deal with Italian club Roma.
One person he is keeping by his side for his new life in the Italian capital is his girlfriend, Leah Monroe. They met as teenagers and have been dating since about 2015. Monroe is a vlogger and influencer who is renowned for sharing beauty tips on Youtube and has a growing Instagram following thanks to her beauty and popularity.
Alessandro Matri & Federica Nargi
Alessandro Matri may not be as flashy and well known as Paulo Dybala or Romelu Lukaku, but he is well respected. This is why he has played for some of the most successful teams in Italy, including Juventus, Milan, and Fiorentina, winning four national championships. But apart from his soccer, he is also engaged to model Federica Nargi.
Nargi is a model who has won “Miss Roma” and “Miss Cotonella” national titles in 2007. She also participated in the “Miss Italia” pageant, placing her in 11th position. She has since moved into modeling while Matri retired from playing in 2020. They have two children together.
Tom Cleverley & Georgina Dorsett
Tom Cleverley was one of Manchester United’s most promising youngsters in the early 2010’s. He was deemed influential to the club’s pre-season victories over Barcelona and Manchester City in 2011. But after a few games that season, he picked up an injury, which curtailed his promising career.
At least he had a TV personality, Georgina Dorsett, by his side. The couple just started dating in 2012 and got married in 2015 after getting engaged in 2014. Dorsett is renowned for being in “The Only Way Is Essex” and was still on the show when she and Cleverley started dating. They have two children, and in 2021 Cleverley was still with Watford.
Paul Gascoigne & Wendy Leech
Despite many being dubbed it, no English player has ever been the next Paul Gascoigne. While Gazza was a flawed man, he was also a genius who mesmerized on the soccer field. His Flawed nature can be seen in his relationships, with a marriage that ended in divorce in 1999 after he admitted to abusing his ex-wife Sheryl Failes.
In 2020 Gascoigne was seen with Wendy Leech, a mother of two who he had been quarantining with. But that relationship hit the rocks after footage of him surfaced out at a pub with friends during the lockdown. Leech ended the relationship, citing his irresponsible behavior as the reason.
Paul Scholes & Claire Froggatt
While Paul Scholes is the closest thing England has come to having the next Paul Gascoigne, he wasn’t much of a spotlight seeker. This is why, despite his prodigious talents, he was never as recognized as his teammates like David Beckham and Ryan Giggs. But that doesn’t mean he wasn’t lucky in love.
He has been married to his childhood sweetheart Claire Scholes (née Froggatt) since 1999. They share three children, the youngest of whom, a son, has autism. There were reports in 2020 that Paul and Claire had split, and she had left the marital home and stopped wearing her wedding ring.
Peter Crouch & Abbey Clancy
While Peter Crouch isn’t renowned for being a looker, he does have some charm on him. This is why model and TV personality Abigail Clancy says she was smitten with him as soon as she saw him. She knew he was the one for her. The rest of the world didn’t know this, though.
This is why there was some shock when the two of them got married, although it appears they couldn’t be happier. Clancy has been the host of “Britain’s Next Top Model,” a competition she finished runner up in since 2015. Meanwhile, Crouch hosted a show called “Crouchy’s Year-Late Euros” in 2021. They share four children.
Cristiano Ronaldo & Georgina Rodríguez
Like David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo is one of those soccer players who is known by soccer fans and non-soccer fans alike. But he has also been in some high-profile relationships during his career, and that includes a five-year stint with model Irina Shayk.
But that relationship ended in 2015, and Ronaldo has since moved on with model Georgina Rodriguez. They met in 2016 when both were present at a Dolce & Gabbana launch. She is the mother of his youngest daughter Alana and is the only known mother of his children. In 2021 he moved back to his boyhood club Manchester United.
Neymar & Bruna Marquezine
Neymar is regarded as the heir apparent to the Ballon d’Or dominance that once belonged to Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Besides his football talents, he is also a hit with the ladies. He has a child with a former girlfriend named Carolina Dantas but is best known for his relationship with Bruna Marquezine.
She is an actress, best known for her role in the Brazilian telenovela “Women In Love.” As a couple, they have been on again off again, with the relationship marred by breakups. They last reconciled in 2018, but Neymar has since been with the model Natalia Barulich and in 2021 with Brazilian influencer Bruna Biancardi.
Gary Neville & Emma Hadfield
Gary Neville’s nickname among fans was “no skills.” This was because of his lack of fancy skills. But he was still a success, especially with Manchester United, and was renowned as one of the world’s best right-backs. While he had no skills during his playing days, he most certainly isn’t a no-skills with the women.
In fact, he is married to the gorgeous Emma Hadfield. They met in 2004 and got hitched in June 2007, and they share two daughters, one born in 2009 and the other in 2010. She worked as an assistant before they met, but with Gary’s $25 Million net worth, she could leave that job.
Ian Wright & Nancy Hallam
Ian Wright is a hit with the ladies. This is proven by the eight children he has with four different women. But he has only been married twice, and one of them is Nancy Hallam. The former Arsenal man, who at one point was their record goalscorer, says he met Hallam at the pub.
He also spoke about how she gave him the cold shoulder, saying she didn’t know much about soccer. But he eventually landed her, and they got married in 2011. She is the mother of two of his children. In 2021 he appeared in the TV series “Ted Lasso.”
Joe Cole & Carly Cole
Joe Cole was at one point one of the biggest talents in English football. He was touted as the next Paul Gascoigne and was one of the many products of the West Ham United youth system that also produced Michael Carrick, Rio Ferdinand, and Frank Lampard, among others.
While he has been at many clubs, including Chelsea and Liverpool, he is a one-woman man. At least since 2002, when he met fitness instructor Carly Zucker. She also models and participated in 2008’s “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.” They married in 2009, sharing two children. In 2021 he served as a coach at Chelsea.
John Terry & Toni Terry
John and Toni Terry have weathered some pretty harsh storms during their time of marriage. They tied the knot in 2007, but Two years later, Terry was embroiled in allegations of an affair with his former teammate Wayne Bridge’s then-girlfriend.
Despite the allegations being denied by Terry and Vanessa Perroncel, the woman involved, the relationships between Terry and Bridge had been damaged. The same can’t be said for John and Toni, who continue to go strong despite the incident. This could likely be due to their early relationship when they lived modestly when John was an apprentice. Terry left his assistant manager role at Aston Villa in 2021.
Rio Ferdinand & Kate Ferdinand
When retired Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand lost his first wife, Rebecca Ellison, in 2015, He was distraught. They married in 2009 and had three children before her death. But he dealt with his grief and, after taking some time out to be with his kids, found love again with Kate Wright.
Wright was a cast member of the reality show “The Only Way Is Essex,” and she and Ferdinand got hitched in 2019. They had their first child together in 2020, taking Ferdinand’s tally up to four. In 2021 Ferdinand returned as an expert analyst for “BT Sport.”
Robbie Fowler & Kerrie Fowler
Robbie Fowler was one of the most lethal strikers in England at the dawn of the Premier League. In fact, during his first stint at Liverpool, he was affectionately called god due to his prolific goalscoring record. He is also renowned for his controversial goal celebrations.
In terms of his personal life and marriage, it’s all pretty straightforward. They got married in 2001 in Scotland and share four children: three daughters and one son. Some reports suggest that Kerrie works as Robbie’s financial manager and takes care of his assets. In 2021 Fowler was managing the Indian team East Bengal.
Ryan Giggs & Zara Charles
At the dawn of the Premier League in the early ’90s, pretty poster boys were an important part of the competition’s strategy. Ryan Giggs was perfect for this with his boyish charm and curly jet black hair. This also ensured he attracted the attention of girls around the world.
He’s had run-ins with the fairer gender. From his ex-wife Stacey Cooke, with whom he shares two children, to Natasha, his brother’s ex-wife with who he had an affair for eight years. In 2021, he’s been dating model Zara Charles, and they spent some time on holiday together. He was also in court on charges of common assault.
Sol Campbell & Fiona Barratt
Despite playing for five different clubs, Sol Campbell never cost any of them a cent. That’s because every move he’s made between clubs has been on a free transfer. The most notable clubs on his list are Tottenham Hotspurs, where it all began, and Arsenal, where he won most of the trophies.
But it was during the back end of his career in 2008 that Campbell married Fiona Barratt. She is a successful interior designer who owns her own company called Fiona Barratt Interiors. They have no children, although Campbell does have a son from a previous relationship.
Steve McManaman & Victoria Edwards
Steve Mcmnaman was so good in his heyday that he even went to play for Real Madrid in Spain. There he won the European Champions League and the La Liga title. But his roots were in England, and he returned to The Premier League. But before he made his return, he married his long-time girlfriend, Victoria Edwards.
They tied the knot in Mallorca’s Palma Cathedral in 2002. More than just a pretty face, Edwards is a barrister who also lectures law and did so at the Complutense University of Madrid. They have three children together, and in 2021 Steve returned to “BT Sport” as a pundit.
Steven Gerrard & Alex Curran
Regarded as one of the greatest players never to win the Premier League, Steven Gerrard is still a very decorated player. He’s won the Uefa Champions League, the FA Cup, and League Cup, among others,s and also won a few individual accolades, including UEFA Club Footballer of the Year.
Another achievement is his marriage to Alex Curran. Curran is a former model who is considered a fashionista and even has a fashion column in the Daily Mirror. They married in 2007 and share four children. Gerrard coached Scottish club Rangers to their first league title in 10 years.
Trent Alexander-Arnold & Hannah Atkins
As modern fullback in soccer goes, Trent Alexander-Arnold is pretty high up on the list of being one of the best. He was important to the Liverpool team that won its first English top-flight league title in over three decades in 2020. Fast forward a little to 2021, and he’s achieving something a little different off the field.
TAA, as he’s known, was seen out and about with a woman named Hannah Atkins. They were photographed out on a lunch date in June 2021, shortly after he announced that he couldn’t play at Euro 2020 due to injury. Alexander-Arnold is tight-lipped about his private life otherwise, and very few details about Atkins are available.
Wayne Rooney & Coleen Rooney
As far as childhood sweethearts go, none are more prominent in soccer than Wayne and Colleen Rooney. They were in secondary school when they met while Rooney was breaking through as a robust 16-year-old. They eventually married in 2008 and had Westlife and The Stereophonics playing at the wedding.
Their marriage hasn’t been without controversy, with allegations of infidelity surfacing against Rooney on multiple occasions.

Colleen is also an author who specializes in children’s literature and has published several books on that theme.
David De Gea & Edurne Garcia

She is a popular Spanish singer and television presenter who finished in 21st place at the “Eurovision Song Contest” in 2015. In 2019 she was announced as a judge for the Spanish version of “Idol Kids,” and in 2021, she gave birth to her and De Gea’s first child, a daughter named Yanay.
Mason Mount & Chloe Wealleans
Mason Mount has been dubbed one for the future. The skillful Chelsea winger has been turning on the style for the Stamford Bridge club since returning from a loan spell at Derby County in 2019. This has even seen him earn call-ups to the England national team.
Another person turning on the style is Mount’s girlfriend, Chloe Wealleans.

She is renowned for sharing her new looks and outfits on Instagram and is pursuing a career as a model.

You can understand why she is so committed since they have been dating since their teens, before his big-money lifestyle. Things haven’t been smooth sailing, though, and Walker has been embroiled in several extramarital affairs, including one during the lockdown. But Walker has since committed to Kilner, as the couple got engaged in 2020.
Raheem Sterling & Paige Milian
Raheem Sterling was England’s main man at Euro 2020. He scored the most goals for the team on its way to the final of the competition. But he has also had his fair share of controversy with run-ins with fans and the law. But one place he hasn’t had issues was in the relationship department.
Sterling is engaged to Paige Milian, who he met in a sports store she worked at during his time at first club Queens Park Rangers. They broke up for a bit when he moved to Liverpool, but they rekindled their romance when he moved to Manchester City. There are no wedding bells in sight yet.
Erling Haaland – Isabel Haugseng Johansen
Anyone who has been a football fan for a long time can agree that there haven’t been many strikers as prolific as Erling Haaland, renowned for his speed and stealth. In the summer of 2022, he stepped up with a transfer from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City.
Haaland has since taken the English Premier League by storm, breaking numerous records and arousing curiosity about his personal life. Even though he refers to his hattrick match balls as his “girlfriends,” his real girlfriend is Isabel Haugseng Johansen, who is also a footballer and has been seen in the stands supporting him since his Dortmund days.
Luke Shaw & Anouska Santos
Luke Shaw has had a tough career. A near career-ending leg break in 2015 sidelined him for six months. He also suffered victimization by manager Jose Mourinho and was criticized for his weight. But he fought through and even lost weight, and by Euro 2020, he was cementing his place as one of the world’s best fullbacks.
Part of his reward has been his relationship with social media model Anouska Santos. It’s unclear when they started dating, but they started making public appearances in 2017. That same year they were seen in jewelry stores together, sparking rumors that they were getting engaged. They have a son born in 2019.
