We’re kicking off the list with one of the most iconic partnerships in the world of football. David Beckham is the England international who famously played for Manchester United and LA Galaxy.
But his wife, Victoria, is equally as famous for being a member of the groundbreaking pop band, Spice Girls. Sparks flew when the pair met in 1997, and they married two years later. Known in the media as Posh and Becks, these two have created an empire!
Amine Gülşe Özil
Fenerbahçe attacking midfielder Mesut Özil started dating Amine Gülşe in 2017. Unlike his fractious relationship with former club Arsenal FC, their bond has gone from strength to strength, and the pair married in 2019.
Amine is a Turkish and Swedish actress, model, and beauty pageant titleholder. She was born and raised in Sweden. She was crowned Miss Turkey 2014 and represented her country at the Miss World 2014 pageant, so it’s safe to say that she’s a famously beautiful woman! Wow.
Ann-Kathrin Brömmel
Ann-Kathrin Brömmel is an example of another WAG who’s famous in her own right. She’s a multi-talented model, singer, and cast member on the reality show, Germany’s Next Top Model. She has also released two singles in Germany named “This Is Me” and “Body Language”.
Her husband is none other than German professional footballer Mario Götze, who plays for Eredivisie club PSV Eindhoven. They welcomed their first child in 2020, a son named Rome Götze.
Izabel Kovačić
Chelsea FC midfielder Mateo Kovačić is one lucky man. He has been married to entrepreneur and model Izabel Kovačić since 2017. Izabel is undoubtedly stunning, but she also has brains to boot!
She has a degree in economics from the University of Zagreb and she’s a successful business owner, having launched her own organic and eco-friendly baby product brand ‘Lunilou’. She often posts about her glamorous life and adorable family on her popular Instagram page, boasting over 386,000 followers!
It’s a famous saying that behind every successful man is a woman, and that’s certainly the case in the world of football! The term ‘WAG’ was coined by the UK tabloid press during coverage of the 2006 FIFA World Cup, as the glamorous wives and girlfriends of the England squad would flock to support their beaus at big games.
