From two Icelandic models who snuck into an England H๏τel after a match to an escort who allegedly romped with three Manchester United stars, here we look at where infamous ‘party girls’ ended up
What happens to misbehaving footballers is usually no great mystery from the carefully crafted apology, the manager’s public word of warning to the athlete trotting back out onto the field after a cliched slap on the wrist.
But as for the women at the centre of such juicy storms, their pathway back to normality is more ambiguous. And with that enlightening thought in mind, we look into the lives of so-called ‘party girls’ who became entangled in the wild antics of footballers.
From a controversial model who had a car romp with a Premier League star to girls who were snuck into the England team H๏τel during Covid-19 restrictions, below are six standouts.
Phil Foden struck twice when England thrashed Iceland 4-0 during a Nations League win in November 2020 – but it was the controversy in the hours afterwards that got tongues wagging.
That’s because Three Lions debutants Foden and Mason Greenwood were kicked out of the camp after trying to sneak four girls back to the England H๏τel, in what was a Covid-19 breach.
But it was Iceland babes Nadia Sif Lindal Gunnarsdottir, then 20, and her cousin Lara Clausen, then 19, who were the ones who made it to the room in Reykjavik.
They entered the H๏τel during the early hours of the morning and Lara said she “felt like an escort” during an Instagram stream – and footage later showed Foden flashing his bum at them.
The girls reportedly spent hours with the players and they shared a picture on social media with the caption “chillin with Mason Greenwood & Phil Foden”.
And after the news broke and the players were fined £1,360 by local police, the women spoke out in support of them.
After Southgate sent the lads packing, Nadia said: “I was talking to Mason for a couple of days before they came to Iceland. They did know that they had to quarantine, but we figured that since they were playing Iceland, they had been tested before and it would be OK.”
But a lot has changed in the three years since then. Firstly, Nadia has moved on and is now in a relationship with an Icelandic basketball player called Lucien Christofis.
In a post earlier this year, she wrote to her 22,800 followers on Instagram: “His day. Happy birthday lover. Your a planet in my solar system.”
And the professional model, who works for an agency called Brother Models, has also undergone somewhat of a transformation after adding dainty tattoos to her neck, chest and arms.
