Super-skinny Abbey Crouch hasn't an inch to pinch as she dines at a steak house with husband Peter

By Emily Sheridan


With her super-skinny figure, it's doubtful Abbey Crouch tucks into many steaks.

But that's exactly what the model and her husband Peter fancied as they headed out for dinner in Cheshire last night.

The Stoke City striker, 31, and his wife, 26, both wore fitted outfits which showed off their thin frames as they arrived at The Grill On The Edge in Alderley Edge.

Located a short drive from their £4.5million Prestbury mansion, the pair left daughter Sophia at home in the care of a babysitter for their date night.

The Liverpudlian model looked super skinny in pair of black leggings and a peplum-detailed top with sheer side panels.

She teamed the all-black ensemble with a £1,160 pair of Givenchy taupe embellished wolffish sandals with metal shark tooth details and a five-inch stiletto.

Abbey has been a tiny size 6 since bouncing back into shape within a few weeks of their daughter Sophia's birth in March 2011.

Super slim: The model's choice to wear slimming black emphasised her slight frame

The model insisted she didn't gain much weight during the pregnancy and the stress of planning their wedding - which took place when Sophia was a few months old.

She said last year: 'I put 2st on when I was pregnant, but I was all bump and a big fat face. My mum told me it would drop off when I had Sophia, and it did.

'Each day I noticed my weight going down. I did legs, bums and tums on a Sky fitness channel, and I do a lot of horse riding. And then I had the stress of my wedding in July and most brides find that they lose a few pounds with worry.'

The couple have been enjoying a longer summer together than some other high-profile footballer-WAG pairings after Crouch failed to be selected for the England squad during the Euro 2012 campaign.


Cheeky: The top's flesh-coloured panel gave the impression Abbey was flashing some 'side boob'

Leading the way: At 5ft 9, Abbey is a lot taller than the average woman, but looks diminutive next her 6ft 7 husband

Some critics believe Peter's £10million move from Tottenham Hotspurs to the less high-profile Stoke City last year contributed to his snub by manager Roy Hodgson.

Meanwhile, there has been something to celebrate for Peter after he landed his own chat show.

He will film a pilot of a Sky show named On The Couch With Peter Crouch, scheduled for broadcast later this year.

If he needs any advice, he can always turn to his wife, who has hosted Great British Hairdresser last year and presented fashion segments on This Morning.

Get a room you two! Abbey Crouch and her husband Peter can't keep their hands off of each other as they holiday in Mexico

By Kirsty Mccormack


While Wayne and Coleen Rooney are sunbathing in Los Angeles, another footballer and his WAG were enjoying the sunshine elsewhere.

Peter Crouch and his wife Abbey were spotted canoodling by a swimming pool while on a romantic holiday in Mexico this week.

As they soaked up the sunshine, the happy couple didn't care who was watching as they kissed and cuddled.


PDA: Peter and Abbey Crouch enjoy an intimate moment as they holiday in Mexico

Passionate moment: The blonde model looked smitten with her husband as he pulled her in for a kiss

Abbey looked completely smitten with her husband of just over a year as she gazed up at him as he held her close.

The mother-of-one was showing off her enviable figure in a black and white halterneck bikini which she teamed with a straw hat.

She was clearly feeling very grateful about being away with her husband, and tweeted on June 21: 'I'm officially in paradise,' along with a scenic photo of her view in Mexico.


Happy pair: The married couple were seen laughing with one another as they cuddled in the sun


Getting technical: The footballer was seen clutching an iPhone and then an iPad as he spent some quality time with Abbey

Say cheese! The Stoke City star took photos of his wife as she posed by the pool

The married pair appeared to be restless as they hung around by the pool, and their public display of affection was brought on by Peter who was seen taking photos of his wife using an iPad and his iPhone.

The Stoke City footballer wore a pair of bright blue shorts and a loose white shirt and sunglasses as he enjoyed Abbey's company.

The sportsman clearly isn't a fan of lazing around by the pool all day as he was spotted doing some topless sunbathing earlier in the day but soon put his shirt back on to cuddle his wife.

In competition: The pair were both sporting impressive tans in the Mexican sunshine

Now you see it, now you don't: Peter was wearing bright blue swimming shirts and a long-sleeved white top with sunglasses

They were then seen talking to a waitress at the hotel and no doubt ordered a few drinks to cool themselves down.

However, Abbey couldn't have been feeling too hot as he wrapped a navy and white striped garment around her neck that appeared to be a top.

Peter and Abbey's one-year-old daughter Sophia Ruby was nowhere to be seen as the couple relaxed by the swimming pool, meaning they may have left her at home in the UK with either one of their parents.

Peter Crouch puts football future to one side as he enjoys Italian holiday with wife Abbey and daughter Sophia

By KIRSTY MCCORMACK

One big happy family: Peter Crouch, his wife Abbey and their daughter, Sophia Ruby, enjoy a day out while on holiday in Capri, Italy

Most people may sit at home twiddling their thumbs when waiting on a decision that shapes their future career, but not footballer Peter Crouch.

The lanky striker fled to the Italian island of Capri with his wife Abbey Clancy and their five-month-old daughter, Sophia Ruby, ahead of his move to Stoke City.

The couple, who married in June this year, were seen holidaying in the popular resort spending quality time as a family.

Check me out: Abbey relaxes by the pool in a bikini and sunglasses getting ready to take photos of her husband and daughter

Clancy, 25, wore a skimpy blue and white checked bikini with dark sunglasses as she relaxed by the side of the pool and watched 30-year-old Crouch take a splash with Sophia Ruby in the swimming pool.

The family were also photographed making the most of the Italian culture and mingling with the locals as they strolled through the town.

Crouch, who previously played for Tottenham Hotspur, was seen pushing his daughter's buggy as his child, who wore a pink headband, took in the Italian atmosphere in her mother's arms.


Bum's the word: Abbey adjusts her hair, not her skimpy bikini bottoms, while posing by the pool in the sun

Clancy chose to cover up for their day out and wore a low-cut linen dress and gold sandals over a bikini.

The happy family were later pictured taking a break from their walk at a nearby lake, where Hells Kitchen contestant, Clancy, had decided to show off her slender figure again, this time in khaki green halterneck bikini top.


That's my girl: Peter teaches Sophia Ruby how to swim while the family enjoy some quality time together

The lingerie and catwalk model didn't strip completely though as she folded her dress down to her waist and put her dark sunglasses on, whilst her husband chose to keep his long sleeved top on in the hot weather.

It was announced that the 6ft 7in football player was moving to Stoke City on August 31.


Stoked: Peter was bought by Stoke City for £10 million last month and has begun training with his new team

The Premier League club announced that they had bought the striker for a record fee of £10million which could rise to £12million on a four-year contract.

After the move was finalised, Crouch revealed that his former Tottenham Hotspur colleague, Jonathan Woodgate, was a major influence upon his decision to join Stoke City.

A little off the top... if you can reach: England star Peter Crouch visits Tottenham barber whose shop was targeted by rioters

By CHRIS SLACK

Trim: Peter Crouch gets his hair cut by barber Aaron Biber in his shop during a visit by the footballer to support a campaign to raise funds following the riots

When rioters targeted Aaron Biber's barber's shop in Tottenham, they stole the hairdryers, smashed the shop up and broke the windows.

However of the things they chose to leave behind, one was a signed photo of England footballer Peter Crouch.

So when the England star heard of the attack on the 89-year-old's shop he decided to pay a visit... and even had time for a trim.


Fan's favourite: Aaron poses with Crouch, who is his favourite player, while holding the signed photo that the looters left behind when they attacked the shop


Crouch visited the shop in Tottenham High Road today as he lent his support to the 'Keep Aaron Cutting' campaign.

The campaign was set up following the riots of August 6, when Aaron's shop, alongside other businesses in the area, were hit by looters.


Comb over: Mr Biber uses his comb to brush excess hair of Crouch's head after he had earlier gone to work on the back


The campaign raised £35,000 to pay for the repairs after Aaron said following the riots that he had no insurance and could not afford repairs.

Following the visit, Crouch told the official Tottenham Hotspur website: 'I wasn’t expecting to get a hair cut but I needed one and was in a barber shop, so I thought "why not?"’ Aaron did a great job.


Discussing tactics: Mr Biber and Crouch chat before getting down to the important business of the hair cut


'It was sad to see what had happened to his, and a lot of other people’s businesses and lives, after the recent troubles. But it’s great to see the response so many people have given.

'From spending time with Aaron there’s no doubt he’s a lifelong Spurs fan and his shop is walking distance from the stadium, so it’s only right we show our support.


Full back and sides: The barber trims the back of the footballer's hair. Crouch later described the cut as 'a great job'


Mr Biber has become a popular figure in the local community after he has spent more than 40 years building up his business in Tottenham.

He said he had been 'overwhelmed' with the response to the appeal.


Attack: The barber's shop is located on Tottenham High Road, where the rioters hit on August 6


'After fixing up his barbershop, we will be working with the council, Aaron and his nephew Eddie, to distribute the rest of the fund to make sure it goes to help the other businesses and residents around Aaron's shop.

'There's lots to do. We will be recording the progress we make on his shop and the other people that benefit from your money.'

Abbey goes cardinal! Mrs Crouch looks fierce in fiery figure-hugging red frock on rocking night out with new husband Peter

By JODY THOMPSON

Red hot: Abbey Crouch looked sensational in a figure-hugging scarlet dress on a night out with new husband Peter at Gilgamesh in Camden, London last night

They only just got back from their honeymoon in Ibiza last month - but Peter Crouch and his new wife Abbey looked they were carrying on the party last night after an evening carousing at London's glitzy Gilgamesh.

Abbey, 25, looked flaming hot in a skintight strapless red dress and nude strappy Louboutin heels to show yet again that she's lost every inch of her baby weight since giving birth to first baby Sophia Ruby four months ago.

The couple looked as if there were having a rollicking night out as as they left the north London restaurant and bar made comedy rock signs in the back of the car that was taking them home.


Rocking out: The model and her footballer spouse looked like they'd had a wild night out and were throwing hand signs in the back of the car taking them home


Wild night: It was hard to tell who had more fun, Peter or his new wife


In fact, it was hard to see who was having more fun, leggy model and TV presenter Abbey or her Tottenham and England footballing star husband, 30.

Clearly, the new parents, who both work, felt the need to let off some steam.

Abbey has also gone back to work already and announced last week, that unlike Zara Phillips, she would be taking her husband's surname and was leaving Clancy behind with her single days.


Last minute adjustments: Abbey made sure her strapless dress didn't slip as she made her way to the car


Home, James: By the looks of it, the pair would be needing Alka Seltzer when they got up for baby Sophia Ruby's morning feed today

Nice day for a WAG wedding as Peter Crouch ties the knot with Abbey Clancy

By Emily Sheridan and Ben Todd


Presenting Mr and Mrs Crouch: Stunning bride Abbey Clancy and her new husband Peter Crouch pose after their marriage ceremony in Stapleford Park in Leicester


As one of the highest profile footballer-WAG couples in the UK, they could have commanded a seven-figure sum for an exclusive magazine deal.

But Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy made a refreshing statement yesterday by happily posing for assorted photographers as they married in Leicestershire.

Looking stunning in a white strapless Giles Deacon gown, the Liverpudlian model, 25, beamed as she gazed at her new husband, 30, in the grounds of the four-star Stapleford Park hotel.


And despite the height difference between the two, it looked liked they had found a sloping pavement to pose on, giving 5ft 9in Clancy a slight boost to reach her 6ft 7in groom for a passionate kiss.

The bride, who gave birth to her first child just three months ago, showed off her size 6 figure in a white lace corset gown with a tiered silk skirt - believed to cost £10,000 - which she teamed with droplet earrings and loose tousled wavy hair.

She steered away traditional romantic bridal make-up, instead opting for dramatic smoky eyes and vampy red nail varnish.

The Tottenham Hotspurs striker looked dapper in a black suit and waistcoat with a white tie and white rose on his lapel to match his bride's bouquet.

The couple married this afternoon at the Church Of St Mary Magdalene, in the 500-acre grounds of the luxury country house hotel and sporting estate, which includes a golf course and a spa.

One member of the congregation said: ‘The emotion of it all got to Abbey. They were both really nervous – and when she said “I do” she just burst into tears.’

Following the church service, the newlyweds headed to the Orangery at the hotel for a lavish wedding reception.

After a slap-up meal, the couple are rumoured to have laid on an evening jam-packed with entertainment, including a live band, magician and karaoke.

Having been a singer with short-lived band Genie Queen when she was a teenager, Clancy will hopefully belt out a song or two for 120 wedding guests.

And no doubt the guests will be calling for the groom to perform his signature dance move, 'the robot'.

Among the wedding guests were the couple's three-month-old daughter Sophia Ruby, Abbey's parents Karen and Geoffrey and her two siblings, including brother Sean Clancy, who plays for Fleetword Town F.C, and little sister Elle.

Joining the groom were his father Bruce, mother Jayne and his younger sister Sarah.

Although notably absent from the wedding, fellow WAG Coleen Rooney sent her congratulations to the couple via Twitter.

She wrote: 'Congratulations Abbey and Peter on your wedding day!!! Look gorgeous x x.'

Their nuptials comes after the pair are rumoured to have signed a pre-nuptial agreement to protect Crouch's £7million fortune.

The couple recently returned from a pre-wedding holiday in Sardinia, where Crouch popped the question in 2009.

We did it! The couple were in high spirits as they walked hand-in-hand in the sunshine

The couple's six year romance hasn't been the most straightforward.

After a few months of dating in 2006, Crouch announced during the European cup in Germany he had ended their short romance following drug allegations concerning Clancy.

At the time, Crouch released a statement through his lawyer saying: 'Whilst I do not ordinarily comment upon matters relating to my private life, I have read with dismay various recently articles and reports about my "relationship" with Abbey Clancy.

'In light of this, I wish to make the situation absolutely clear: Abbey and I were in the very early stages of a relationship which, for a number of reasons, I decided a few weeks ago to end, and I accordingly informed Abbey of my decision.'

But it wasn't long before they were back together, before announcing their engagement in summer 2009.

However, their relationship was rocked by allegations last year Crouch paid prostitute Monica Mint for sex during a friend's stag weekend in Madrid.

But it appeared they quickly got things back on track and Crouch announced Clancy's pregnancy last September.

You'd never guess Abbey Clancy had a baby only seven weeks ago!

By BEN TODD

Back in shape: Abbey Clancy shows off her well-toned legs and trim figure just seven weeks after she gave birth to her daughter Sophia Ruby


It's not what most women would typically wear to church.

But when you look this good seven weeks after giving birth, you want to show it.

Abbey Clancy appeared remarkably svelte as she and fiancé Peter Crouch attended the christening of a friend’s child.


Caring: Peter Crouch and his fiancee Abbey Clancy cradle a baby at the Christening in Liverpool


The model, 25, wore a figure-hugging white and blue patterned dress complete with a daring high cut which showed off her well toned legs.

Her daughter by England striker Crouch, Sophia Ruby, was born on March 14.

The speedy weight loss may have been motivated by her forthcoming wedding – the couple are due to marry at the end of next month. They have planned a lavish ceremony at the Stapleford Park Hotel in Leicestershire on June 30.
