England's World Cup squad for the 2026 tournament in the United States, Canada, and Mexico has been announced, featuring stars like Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka, and Declan Rice. Notable omissions from Thomas Tuchel's roster include Phil Foden, Cole Palmer, Harry Maguire, and Luke Shaw. But what does this mean for the WAGs line-up? The glamorous wives and girlfriends likely to be cheering on their partners include an American model once linked to Michael B. Jordan, a law graduate who gives prisoners legal advice, and a mother-of-three who has assumed 'mother hen' status, organizing pre-match parties.

Their first date was to the cinema while Jordan attended St Robert of Newminster Catholic School in Washington, Tyne and Wear.
