Top 10 Hottest Wives and Girlfriends of Athletes

Athletes are famous for many things aside from their performance in the field. They are often the preferred topic of tabloids due to their sometimes eccentric lifestyle or their antics. And, increasingly, their wives and girlfriends (WAGs, for short) get a lot of media attention – especially if they happen to be celebrities as well. The WAG phenomenon started in the UK with soccer star David Beckham and former Spice Girl Victoria Adams (now Beckham) and has since then spread to the whole world. Today, let us take a look at the hottest WAGs of famous athletes.

10. Brenna Mcguire

One of the hottest WAGs of the NHL, Brenna Mcguire is married to Columbus Blue Jackets alternate captain Brandon Dubinsky. He and Brenna lived in the same building but never met – until going out with some mutual friends and learning of their proximity. From there on, one thing led to another, culminating in their wedding in 2012.

9. Ana Ivanović

Ana Ivanović is a retired Serbian tennis player, with accolades like ranking #1 in the world in 2008 and winning the year-end WTA Tournament of Champions twice, in 2010 and in 2011. Ivanović is married to Bastian Schweinsteiger, a midfielder for Major League Soccer club Chicago Fire.

8. Melissa Satta

Melissa Satta is an Italian model and television presenter, and not least, the fiancée of German professional soccer player Kevin-Prince Boateng, known by his short name “Prince”. The couple has been a couple for years – at one time, in 2012, the player – then at AC Milan – claimed that his tigh injury that sidelined him for a while was a result of the two spending too much time with… private sports.

6. Teyana Taylor

Actress, model, dancer, rapper, and WAG Teyana Taylor has been married to Cleveland Cavaliers player Iman Shumpert for longer anyone knew – they married in secret.
