Where Soccer AM’s Soccerettes are now, from glamour models and talkSPORT host to Hollyoaks star and Big Brother winner
WITH cult classic football show Soccer AM set to be axed, SunSport takes a look back at one of its most iconic features - Soccerettes.
The skit was scrapped in 2015 but saw a wide variety of future stars throughout its runtime.
From TV presenters to glamour models and actresses to Big Brother winners, the section etched its place into British TV history.
But where are some of the most memorable Soccer AM Soccerettes now?
Natalie Sawyer
Starting off, Natalie Sawyer made more than one appearance on Soccer AM during her 18 years working at Sky Sports.
The now talkSPORT radio presenter and podcast host represented Brentford on the show, but back then promotion to the Premier League was a dream for any Bees fan.
