    I’m a WAG and World Cup veteran – I know exactly how England’s other halves can deal with Qatar’s ruinous rules

    I’M usually a firm believer that rules are made to be broken.But the strict list of World Cup dos and don’ts issued by England chiefs to this year’s Wags are not to be trifled with.

    Our girls have been warned that if they put a stiletto-clad foot wrong in strict Qatar, they could end up in prison.
    My heart goes out to them, because they’ve been issued with a manifesto for party poopery.
    No booze, no skimpy outfits, no PDAs, no singing in public and even no selfies, at least not outside official buildings.
    The Wags simply won’t know what to do with themselves.

    The likes of Sasha Attwood, Jack Grealish’s girlfriend, and her fellow England Wags should be looking forward to the World Cup and all the glitz and glamour that comes with it.
    Instead, they’ll be worrying that they could get in trouble for doing perfectly normal things.
    I’ve been lucky enough to go to two World Cups, Germany in 2006 and South Africa in 2010, and it might sound silly, but I’m not exaggerating when I say the Wags play a huge part in creating the special atmosphere.
    In South Africa I was treated like a superstar. I can hardly tell you what it was like there.
    Most read in The Sun
    I kept thinking, ‘Have they got me mixed up with someone?’.
    The World Cup is meant to be an international party, and we were there to support our boys in the best way we knew how.
    But with the risk of a crisis in Qatar if anyone has too much fun, I think those golden days have come to an end.
    This year’s Wags have been told that public displays of affection, including kissing, will not be tolerated.
    Double whammy
    That’s going to be tough. I remember watching my ex-husband Jason Cundy play for Chelsea and Tottenham, and when you’re watching a game, especially when they score, you leap up and hug.
    You can’t help it, it’s instinct, you do it — these girls want to support their partner and they want to show affection. They want to show passion.
    And if you’re on holiday with your partner, you are just openly affectionate without even thinking.
    In fact, we’ve seen a few of the players be affectionate with the wrong person, so it’s a double whammy to the loyal partners. Then there’s the rules around wardrobe choices.
    Wags love dressing up and are fully aware that when their partner scores a goal, all the cameras are straight on them.
    We’ve seen a few of the players be affectionate with the wrong person, so it’s a double whammy to the loyal partners.
    They want to look the bee’s knees — clothes are their life and they’ll obviously have got all their outfits ready for the matches. And for the girls to dress modestly? They haven’t got that in their vocab.
    What is modest anyway? I know I’ve been out before and someone has said, ‘Ooh, that’s a bit racy’, and I’m like, ‘Gosh, this is nothing’.
    Will they have to have their skirts below the knee? Will their shoulders be covered? And it’s going to be very hot — are you allowed to go out in a vest top?
    They could get in trouble unless they’ve got a warden or someone there checking them from head to toe with a measuring tape saying, ‘No, that skirt’s too short’.
    For girls used to rightly making their own choices about their own bodies, this will feel so wrong.
    We all know the Wags love a good selfie, as we all do — and Qatar is a beautiful place — so taking a selfie is something these girls will do without even thinking.
    They’ll want to put pictures out there — they’re at the World Cup, it’s the pinnacle of their partners’ careers — but taking a selfie in front of a government building is against the law.
    A World Cup without Wags would be a sad sight
    And we’re not just talking about a slap on the wrist here, this is serious stuff. It can lead to imprisonment, as well as fines.
    Drinking in public, that’s another thing. What if they win and England go through? Are you saying they can’t celebrate with a drink?
    They’re also not allowed to sing — so I can’t imagine how deathly dull the stadiums will sound.
    Like many others, when I watch a football match, I get taken over by someone else and find myself singing my heart out until my throat is hoarse. It’s in you and you can’t stop it.
    All of these rules are going to be broken, probably by accident — and we could see one of our girls actually being put in prison. Footballers’ wives get a really bad rap of being nothing but bimbos who love to shop and get their nails done and are just after the money.
    But they’re not. A lot of them are intelligent women who have careers in their own right. They’re not used to being told what to do. They are strong, independent women who set their own rules.
    f I were them, I’d make a stand against these regressive regulations and say, ‘We’re not going to go’. A World Cup without Wags would be a sad sight.
    But after all the support they’ve given their partners, the Wags should expect to have their support in taking a stand, too.

    Lizzie’s 8 best Wag moments
    Like The Beatles

    I WILL never forget that first moment of seeing the Wags walking together in a line in Baden-Baden during the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
    It was like The Beatles had come to town when Victoria Beckham, Coleen Rooney and the gang stepped out.
    Everyone was like, “Wow. Who are they? What are they wearing?”.
    They were everywhere and it was like nothing anyone had seen before. It was a time when the girls were really more popular than the players.
    And England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson loved it, because the attention wasn’t on the boys.
    They sold more magazines than if you had Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie on the front. I don’t think we’ll ever be seeing anything like that again.
    War of the sunglasses

    IT was great seeing the girls watching the games and looking at how big their sunglasses were in 2006.
    You had this hierarchy, with Victoria Beckham, at the top and then Cheryl Cole, because we knew them from the Spice Girls and Girl Aloud.
    Then we had Coleen Rooney, who was new on the block, but you could see she had real star quality.
    It was so fun to see the top girls angling for the best seat, and getting that money shot when their partner scores. Cameras went straight on to them, with their hair immaculate, huge sunglasses and lots of lip gloss. They looked like stars.

    WHEN I met Nelson Mandela at the 2010 World Cup, the former South Africa leader’s first words to me were: “Where are the Wags?”
    That’s when I knew the England Wags had actually gone global. It was something else.

    At the last World Cup in Russia, in 2018, we saw Rebekah Vardy, leading the squad of Wags, all dressed up to the nines, as they hit the town.
    Unfortunately, Rebekah’s caused quite a stir since then – and I can’t imagine her at the helm of a similar outing now.
    Staying next door to Prince Harry

    I WAS staying in the Sun City resort in South Africa, but my friend moved me to another hotel, the Saxton, much to my annoyance.
    However, when I got there, I got the only room left, which was next to Prince Harry, on the top floor with a view.
    I was like, “This is my kind of place!”. At the same hotel I gatecrashed the fanciest cocktail party, with David Beckham, Prince Harry and Prince William.
    Prince Harry’s PR took a look at me and went, “What the hell are you doing here?”, and I was like, “There’s no party without the Cundy – I’m here!”.
    Their faces went pale when they saw me walk in.

    Champagne through straws
    ENGLAND may not have won the World Cup in 2006 but we definitely took the prize for partying.
    Steven Gerrard’s wife Alex Curran was said to have led the karaoke while drinking magnums of champagne through straws with other Wags at nightclub Garibaldi’s. There were also reports of dancing on tables and huge bar bills.

    WHEN I was working for ITV as the Wags correspondent in 2006, I was asked to interview the “Queen of the Wags”.
    I was like, “Who is that?”. Then I get a call from Nancy Dell’Olio, who dated Sven, joking: “Darling, I’m married to the boss. I’m Queen of the Wags!”

    Inside football’s most ridiculous divorce as exes war over ‘affairs’, bald cat and ‘secrets that would ruin 50 families’

    NORMALLY bags are chucked out the window when a couple break up, but legendary striker Francesco Totti has taken his TV star wife’s designer ones hostage.It is the latest bizarre act in the increasingly acrimonious divorce of Italy’s version of Posh and Becks.

    Glam Ilary is a model turned TV presenter
    They had been a golden couple, with Totti scoring 250 goals for Roma and winning the World Cup for his country, while his wife Ilary Blasi presented hit shows such as Italy’s version of I’m a Celebrity and Big Brother.
    Former model and actress Blasi, 41, and Totti, 46, are so famous that their wedding was broadcast live on television.  
    But cracks in their 17-year marriage started to show during lockdown.
    Totti admitted he nearly left his wife when she bought a hairless cat and when restrictions were lifted rumours of affairs started to circulate.
    READ MORE FEATURES
    He was said to be seeing a much younger florist, while she was reported to have fallen for a tattooed man.
    Having decided to go their separate ways in July, Blasi decided to take Totti’s beloved Rolex watches and he supposedly responded by holding on to her designer shoes and handbags.
    He told Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera: “What could I do? I hid her handbags, hoping we could trade.”
    The glamorous bags in his custody are said to include Gucci, Dior, Chanel and Hermès plus shoes which are worth up to £3,500.
    Most read in Football
    Press reports say Blasi has asked a judge to order Totti to return her collection.
    Naked ambition?
    Blasi caused a stir in 2006 when she flashed a nipple during the Sanremo Song Fest and five years ago by snogging her Big Brother co-presenter Belen Rodriguez.
    She also posed topless in her early career and worked as a catwalk model.
    Totti was dubbed the Roman God due to his good looks and he once boasted: “I was 12 when I made ​​love for the first time. In Tropea, with a Roman girl who was 17 years old.”
    I was 12 when I made ​​love for the first timeFrancesco Totti
    He has been the butt of jokes about his lack of intelligence after a journalist suggested the player “carpe diem?” and Totti replied: “Sorry, my English isn’t very good.”
    Carpe diem is a well known Latin phrase which means seize the day.
    Eventually, he saw the funny side and agreed to publish a book called All the Totti Jokes, Collected by Me, which sold 150,000 copies in just two weeks.
    Two years ago a documentary was made about the striker called My Name Is Francesco Totti, which presented him as a largely untroubled athlete and lauded him for never leaving top Italian side Roma.
    Covid breakdown
    His loyalty to Blasi also appeared to be concrete, having spent 20 years together.
    They tied the knot in June 2005 in an ancient church in Rome with a satellite channel reporting on the event live.
    Blasi was pregnant with their first child, 17-year-old Cristian, at the time and they now also have two daughters Chanel, 15, and Isabel, six.
    However, Covid restrictions undermined the family unit – first due to a feline interloper.
    In 2020 he revealed: “I was furious with my wife, she bought a hairless cat and called it Donna Paola.
    “It’s boiling. At night, it insists on sleeping inside our bed, next to our legs. She’s a very affectionate cat, but almost caused us to break up.
    I was furious with my wife, she bought a hairless cat Francesco Totti
    “Ilary wanted a cat at all costs and I was adamant we shouldn’t. One day, she brought it home, because ultimately she makes all the decisions in this family.
    “We didn’t speak for days, but in the end, I fell in love with the cat too.”
    Then his dad Ezno died from the virus at the age of 76 in October 2020 and Totti spiralled into depression.
    He told a newspaper:  “I have lived through a difficult period, first because I stopped playing and then my father died due to Covid.
    “I also had strong Covid for 15 days. However, my wife, when I needed her most, was not there.”
    Rumours of affairs
    Totti claims that friends informed him that his wife was seeing another man, so he decided to scour her phone for evidence.
    He said: “When I received warnings from different people, whom I trust, I began to suspect.
    “I looked at her cell phone and I saw that there was a third person, who acted as an intermediary between Ilary and another.
    “Here was the evidence. And that led me to depression.”
    He is now dating florist Noemi Bocchi, 34.
    Ilary dated other men before my story with Noemi was bornFrancesco Totti
    But he insists they only began to see each other romantically once his relationship with Blasi was over.
    Totti alleged: “We used to hang out as friends. Ilary dated other men before my story with Noemi was born.” 
    So far Blasi has not spoken publicly about the cheating rumours 
    But she has said: “I’ve discovered things that would ruin 50 families.”
    The couple are expected to agree to share custody of their children.

    Whether they can come to an agreement about their bling is another matter.
    One insider said:  “All she has to do is return the watches and this is over.”

    “But we had a big family problem. I find it hard to explain why I don’t feel like it. But we had a big loss together with my wife and it was not easy. We are trying to move forward together as we always have. 
    “We have two other beautiful children, they allow us to be carefree, but our thoughts are always with us. It’s always in our thoughts what happened to us.”

    When asked how often she had romped with her husband-of-three-years in the last month, the stunning brunette replied: “We do it every day, except for the days when I am in Madrid.
    “Today for instance, thanks to you, I can’t.”
    Told by the shocked host of chat show La Resistencia they were like Avengers superheroes having sex so often with four youngsters in the house, she added: “My children are in bed at 9.30pm. Sex is life.”
    She insisted the fact they had four kids had no impact on their sex life.

    Rubio tried to turn the tables by asking host David Broncano about how often he did it – but was told he had no children so there was no comparison.
    In her tell-all interview, Rubio – who has commuted between Paris and Madrid since Ramos joined PSG last year – also claimed she had just £46,000 in the bank.

    Rubio, who has more than eight million Instagram followers and a net worth estimated at nearly £10m, said: “I’m always a bit confused because of working in Spain and living in France but in the bank there’s €52,000 (£46,000).”
    Seeing the admission was causing as much shock as her confession about sex with Sergio Ramos, she added: “I’m talking about the current account which is the one I saw.”

    Who is Carles Puyol’s girlfriend Vanesa Lorenzo?

    CARLES PUYOL had a successful football career and when that all ended in 2014, he had a life with Vanesa Lorenzo to look forward to.Let’s get to know more about Carles Puyol’s girlfriend, Vanesa Lorenzo.
    Who is Carles Puyol’s wife Vanesa Lorenzo?
    Vanesa Lorenzo was born on January 7, 1977, in Barcelona, Spain.
    She started modelling aged 10, and at 17 years, she moved to Paris to sign with a local modelling agency.
