A WAG has revealed that her lifestyle isn’t all it’s cracked up to be – and said that her partner even has to miss seeing his kids on Christmas Day.
WAG is an acronym for wives and girlfriends, and refers to the partners of professional football players.
Some of the most notable WAGs include David Beckham‘s wife Victoria, Ashley Cole‘s ex-wife Cheryl and Wayne Rooney‘s wife Colleen.
WAGs are known for leading lives of immense luxury, however, TikToker Kay has revealed that her life isn’t always as glamorous as it sounds.
Kay, has been with her League 2 footballer partner for 10 years, and the pair share two children together.
However, she explained that, the family never know where they are going to live from one year to the next.
During the transfer window (between June and September) players are bought and sold by different clubs, meaning that Kay’s partner, who is the captain of his team, could end up moving to a football club on the other side of the country.
“I’m starting to feel a little bit nervous about where we might end up”, she said.
Kay added that sometimes, if her partner’s team has lost a match, their manager makes the players come in on a Sunday, which is usually their day off.
“If you have any plans you have to cancel them super last minute”, she said.
The WAG revealed that her partner has missed his kids’ birthdays, has to train on Christmas Day, and even missed his brothers’ wedding.
However, despite this, she said that she enjoys the adventure, and moving to new places where she doesn’t know anyone, as she is unlikely to bump into someone she went to school with when she pops to the shop in her trackies.
In another video, Kay explained that despite footballer’s being entitled to paternity pay, he partner went back to training the day after his kids were born, so that he didn’t lose his place, meaning that she was left alone with her new borns.
She added that one of the worst parts of the job is that sometimes she will be watching a game on the TV and find out from the commentator that her partner’s been knocked out from a head collision.
“It’s kind of scary, especially if you’ve got young kids at home”, she said.
Kay’s video, which was posted under the username @thats.so.kay, has likely left many open-mouthed, as it has racked up over 5.5 million views on the video-sharing platform.
