    We revealed Foden’s girlfriend Rebecca Cooke swore at him in a bust-up after looking at his phone on holiday in June.

    He did not respond when she began fuming at him, and she shouted: “Tell her ‘n’ all.”
    Weeks earlier, Premier League ace Phil engaged online with Holly, who appeared on ITV2 dating show The Cabins.

    A source said: “Holly is a stunning girl and obviously gets interest from a lot of people.

    It was just a bit of innocent flirting online — it wasn’t anything more than that.”
    Sasha Attwood — girlfriend of Phil’s City teammate Jack Grealish — is also among Holly’s followers.
    She has liked a string of her pics and left a comment calling Holly “pretty”.
    The Corfu incident was not the first time Phil has landed himself in trouble.

    Holly, a blogger and make-up artist, also works as an air hostess for TUI.
    She has 119,000 Instagram followers and regularly shares bikini snaps in exotic locations.
    Speaking before she went on The Cabins, she said had not joined the Mile High Club — because the “toilets are disgusting”.
    Holly, from Staffordshire, was paired with Will McGregor on the show, which sees singletons spend 24 hours with a potential lover in a log cabin, but they did not form a relationship.
    She said: “It’s not the sort of person I want to be involved with.

    “I want to be with someone who works on a building site down the road that no one knows about. It’s just less hassle.”
    However, they remained in touch and after the show aired said the door was not closed on a possible romance.

    SERIAL love cheat Ryan Giggs’s aunt wrote a poem to Wales’s footballers warning them to “lock up your WAGS” when he became national team boss.Joanna Wilson, 61 — the sister of Giggs’s dad, Danny — said she penned it because her nephew, who had an eight-year affair with his sister-in-law, had an eye for the ladies.

    The retired teacher, whose side of the family have not forgiven Giggs for the fling with younger brother Rhodri’s wife, Natasha, said: “He’s been a dirty dog for years.”
    Joanna sent her jokey ode to the footballers, including Gareth Bale, when Giggs became Wales boss in 2018.
    It stresses his love of brunettes, and reads: “If your WAG’s tall and slim with long brown hair, you’d better watch out, you’d better beware.
    “Giggsy’s got the top job, it’s not just hype, so lock up your WAG, she’s just his type.”

    Mum-of-two Joanna, of Cardiff, said: “The team already knew.
    “He’s had the reputation as a love cheat for ages. One player got back to say, ‘You’re right’.
    “There are no boundaries with chasing girls for him. He can’t help himself.”
    During his trial, Giggs, 48, admitted he had never been faithful to a partner and couldn’t resist women.

    A jury failed to reach verdicts of allegations he assaulted Kate Greville, 38, and controlled or coerced her over three years.
    She said he cheated on her with “ten or 12 women”.
    Giggs also denied assaulting her sister, Emma, at the same time as Kate at his home in Worsley, Gtr Manchester, in November 2020.
    At the hearing, it emerged Giggs had also written poetry, describing his todger as a “totem pole” in a ditty to Kate.

    Judge Hilary Manley told the Manchester crown court jury that Giggs had not been on trial for being “serially unfaithful”.

    It’s a write letdownBy Susan Elkin, Literary expert
    I’M afraid Joanne’s poetry is more non-league than Premier league.
    Her couplets are rhythmically quite neat — although “he” would sit better than “Giggsy” and her punctuation is eccentric. If properly edited, it could feel snappy.
    But her offering is still better than Ryan’s effort. That clumsy “totem pole” clincher . . . really? More
