IT was summer 2018 and England fans were wowed by Harry Maguire and Co as they reached the World Cup semi-final.
But in addition to everyone at home, cheering from the stands in Russia were a whole host of our Wags supporting their other halves.

Alongside familiar faces Rebekah Vardy and Ruby Mae was a glamorous girl from Sheffield.
That gorgeous brunette was none other than Fern Hawkins, the fiancee of Manchester United’s captain, who helped his side to third in the league this season.
Ever since Fern showed her support for Maguire, who rose to prominence at Leicester before his £85million switch to Old Trafford, her Instagram account has swelled.
Now with nearly 40,000 followers, Hawkins popularity is rising and her social media game has been upped.

She met Maguire in 2011, when he was a teenager breaking into the Sheffield United team.
Their love soon blossomed, and after seven years together they finally got engaged.
Smooth Maguire popped the question during a romantic getaway to the most romantic city in the world, Paris, back in February 2018.
She posted on Instagram at the time: “On Saturday night, Harry made me the happiest girl in the world & asked me to marry him in the most perfect way.”
They’ve had even more to celebrate since then, with the pair welcoming daughter Lillie Saint in April 2019.
And in May this year the couple welcomed their second daughter, who they named Piper Rose.

And if you’re thinking Hawkins was just a pretty face, you’d be wrong.
In 2017, she graduated with an honours bachelor’s degree in physiotherapy.
If Maguire should have any injury issues, he’s found just the partner to help him recover.
We’re sure Manchester United would be happy to welcome Hawkins to their staff as a new signing too.
