    Her ex played
    Just five months ago, Bertram opened up about her painful split with Gregory van der Wiel, once of Ajax and capped 46 times by the Netherlands.
    The two got together when she was just 19, and had a whirlwind romance – where she followed his career from Paris to Istanbul to Sardinia and Toronto.

    They would welcome two children in their time together.
    But cracks began to form in their relationship as van der Wiel suffered some mental health problems such as anxiety and panic attacks, which began to affect the couple.
    Earlier this year, Rose said: “There are a lot of people who deal with this.
    “It’s not talked about enough and in my case if you don’t know enough about it, it’s very difficult to understand that person.
     “It hasn’t always been easy to deal with. It breaks my heart that he feels this way and that I can’t help it.”
    After eight years together, they sadly parted ways.
    She says she still has a good relationship with Gregory .
    Rose said: “He is the father of my children and I would be very sorry if we broke up in a bad way.”

    A career to fall back on
    However, despite van der Wiel’s problems off the field – Bertram’s career went from strength-to-strength.
    At 13, it was her mother who managed to sign her on to a modelling agency.
    By 16, she was cast by the Dominique agency at 16 and appeared in a photoshoot by famed German photographer Juergen Teller.
    Through the years, Bertram has starred in ad campaigns for H&M, L’Oréal, Hunkemöller, Primark and Agent Provocateur.
    Keen-eyed Netflix viewers will have noticed she was one of the models used to promote the doomed music event Fyre Festival.

    The same year, she became the first Belgian model to appear in the Sports Illustrated Swim Issue.
    Keeping it private
    Mbappe has always kept his personal life private and remained tight-lipped about his girlfriends.
    For years, it was suggested he dated former Miss France Alicia Aylies.
    But now it appears that mother-of-two Bertram has charmed the PSG forward.
    She admitted she’s ready to move on from van der Wiel.

    Cristiano Ronaldo is named in WORST team of the World Cup along with Chelsea star and Argentina champion

    CRISTIANO RONALDO has been named in the World Cup’s WORST team in the latest blow to the former Manchester United star. The 37-year-old found himself reduced to a place on the bench in the knockout stages before Portugal were defeated by Morocco in the quarter-finals.
    It all ended in tears for Ronaldo and PortugalCredit: Getty
    It comes after months of being out of favour at Old Trafford before leaving the club in bitter circumstances.
    But Ronaldo was not the only shock inclusion in the statistically-led worst team of the tournament.

    He was joined by the likes of Lautaro Martinez, who won the World Cup with Argentina, and Chelsea and Senegal goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.
    Data provider Sofascore compiled the team based on a series of performance metrics and stats.
    READ MORE ON RONALDO
    Ronaldo was given a low score of just 6.46 for his World Cup efforts.
    While he made history by scoring in the opening game against Ghana, the Portugal forward struggled as the campaign went on with his national side looking limp going forward.
    He was also denied credit for a strike against Uruguay after a Bruno Fernandes cross was judged to have gone all the way in.
    Departed manager Fernando Santos made the bold call of dropping Ronaldo for the last-16 game against Switzerland – and his side responded by winning 6-1.

    Statistics from Sofascore suggest these were worst 11 performers from Qatar
    The ex-Real Madrid man found himself on the bench again for the quarter-final clash against Morocco.
    This time Portugal lost and despite Ronaldo’s best efforts off the bench they could not find a way through the sturdy Moroccan defence.
    A devastated Ronaldo was last seen disappearing down the tunnel in floods of tears.
    To add insult to injury, his great football rival Lionel Messi would go on to lead Argentina to World Cup victory.
    Mendy also faced the shame of being placed in the tournament’s worst team after an error-ridden campaign for Senegal saw him rated 6.30.
    The goalkeeper is struggling with form and lost his place in the Chelsea line-up to Kepa Arrizabalaga in recent months.

    Despite being a part of Argentina’s victorious team, the statistics did not reflect well on MartinezCredit: Getty
    Meanwhile, striker Martinez received a rating of just 6.35 despite being part of the World Cup winning team.
    He came off the bench in all but two games and played for 148 minutes across Argentina’s matches.
    But he failed to score or make an impact for the South American side.
    Also featuring in the worst XI is American right-back Sergino Dest, Senegal defender Abdou Diallo and Poland pair Kamil Glik and Bartosz Bereszyński.
    The statistics also reflected poorly on Australian duo Jackson Irvine and Mathew Leckie, Switzerland winger Ruben Vargas and Hwang In-beom of South Korea, all of whom made it into midfield.

    The Qatar tournament is being hailed as one of the best World Cups of all time.
