Robbie Williams is gearing up to lead his England team to victory at this Sunday’s Soccer Aid event (think Soccer Six, but with actual A-listers and hot footballers) and his girlfriend Ayda Field is really getting into her role as a WAG. When we caught up with a very tanned and really rather gorgeous Robbie Williams earlier today during a break from training, he was quick to fill us in on how well his lady is adjusting to having a footie-mad man in her life. “She’s a WAG!” he told us. “She’s a proud WAG! She wants to phone Coleen Rooney to find out what to wear and what to say and not say and what to do. She’s really into the idea of being a WAG.” Robbie told us that despite Ayda being all-American, she’s going to be supporting England during the World Cup. “She even says ‘us’ when England are playing, which I love,” he confided. “It’s kind of sweet.” Sigh, he’s such a smitten kitten. We couldn’t help but notice (and feel when we had a little cuddle) that Robbie is looking better than he has in years – and it’s all down to the training he’s been doing for Soccer Six. “I’ve been running six to seven miles a day," he told us proudly. “Playing a couple of 90-minute games a week…I’m knackered, to be honest! I don’t know if I’ve lost weight, but I think I’ve toned up a bit. It’s been a good process.” Lucky old Ayda, eh? “Oh yeah…” agreed Robbie with a wink. “Yeah, yeah…we do it!”
