Jessica says: ‘I’m so proud of him. He has done brilliantly.’

The reality star also admits she understands the female attention her hubby gets, but isn’t worried: ‘I know what sort of man he is and don’t need to worry. It doesn’t matter what these women do.’

‘And, anyway, it’s natural that he should get so many admirers — he’s fit.’ - So he is Jessica, well done you!

Jessica reveals that she wasn’t the biggest fan of Cricket before meeting her hubby, she says: ‘Before I met Kevin I had never even seen a cricket match. But I’ve had a proper initiation and understand all the rules now.’

‘I’m really enjoying supporting him. I go to every game possible. I love it.’

Jess has been writing new material with former bandmate Kelly Young: ‘I really miss singing so being back in the studio and writing is fantastic. It’s great doing something creative again.’

Cricket WAGs Maybe Barred From Tours

Monday, January 8th, 2007

Cricket WAGs following their partners on tour, could be a thing of the past.
cricket wags English cricket has been humiliated by the Australian’s. The 5- 0 whitewash in the Ashes, was their worst performance since 1921. The English Cricket Board (ECB), look to be offloading some of the blame on the WAGs.

The ECB has requested a review of its much criticised decision to allow the wives and girlfriends (WAGs), following suggestions the WAGs had become a circus’ distracting the players, much like the football WAGs in the 2006 World Cup.

It’s understandable that the cricket authorities are taking a view on the situation as the entourage that accompanied the 16 players and 12 backroom staff had reached more than 90 people at one point.

Some of the cricket WAGs are high profile names in their own right;

Jessica Taylor, fianc ée of Kevin Pietersen, is in pop band Liberty X and Andrew Strauss’s wife Ruth, is an Australian actress. Whereas some of the ‘wannabies’ have been more of a concern. For example, England’s captain Andrew Flintoff was accompanied by his wife Rachael Flintoff since before the First Test six weeks ago.
