So its over to Dublin we go for a date with the Westlife Wives as they perform at a fashion show.
Of course, there are no footballers in these relationships these are singer-spouse couplings – but there are legs on show that would not be out of place at some of the leading Premier League grounds.
The first pair belongs to Kerry McFadden, who proved she could strut her stylish stuff with the best of them when she took to the catwalk.
Those of an historical bent will recall when Her Poshness took to the catwalk a few years back, stepping out on the runway in a pixie-ish, pea-green creation.
Well, McPaddings outfit is nothing like that one, what with it being yellow and brown. Whats more you cant see her nipples through the fabric, as you could with Posh all those moons ago.
So what she gains in the general, she loses in the detail. But not that her companions on the runway fare much better.
To one side of her is Gillian Filan, wife of Westlifes Shane, who can be seen clad in the kind of fashion Ivana Trump used to wear to put out the bins in the mid-1980s.
There is much shiny fabric stretched tight over pink flesh. The tan is a nod to Posh, but no more than a cursory one. Gillian is a rank outsider for Poshs crown.
Georgina Bryne, who sashays up the ramp to Kerrys left hand, shows more promise. For starters, she is the daughter of Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern, so shes posher than most.
Wed like to investigate her credentials closer, but McPaddings popped up, gamely illustrating that when it comes to pushiness she can mix that with the best of them on that score too.
Im 23 and Ive done everything, says she, alluding to the time she rode an elephant backwards through a field of cocaine on they Isle of Wight while reciting her Nobelprize winning scientist paper on the cure for cancer.
Ive been in foster homes, in refuge houses and Ive travelled the world, nothing fazes me.
Shes also been cheated on by her lover, which, coupled with her musical abilities still places her at an advantage when it comes to the contest to be the new Posh ’
