Footballer's wife Krystell Sidwell crowned top Wag

Krystell Sidwell was chosen as the nation's favourite footballer's wife on reality TV show Wags Boutique.

The 23-year-old blonde is married to Reading midfielder Steve Sidwell.

The footballer has outdone David Beckham in the tattoo stakes by having the couple's 100-word wedding vows etched on to his back.

Krystell was chosen as the best of the Wags - wives and girlfriends - in a viewer vote at the conclusion of the ITV2 show, which saw two teams compete to run rival clothes shops.

She said: "I feel fantastic. I was never in this to win for myself, I was in it for the team to win, so to be chosen by the viewers for the most popular Wag title is a complete surprise. I'm overwhelmed."

The other competitors included Charlotte Mears, girlfriend of England star Jermaine Defoe, and Page three girl Nicola T, partner of West Ham's Bobby Zamora.

Krystell's Bows team were declared the winners after making the most profits.

The show made over £450,000 for charity which will be divided between Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children and The Willow Foundation, which provides special days out for seriously ill young adults.
