I’m so nervous my husband will cheat on me with Dancing On Ice’s Rachel Stevens, jokes Ben Foden’s wife
BEN Foden’s wife Jackie Belanoff Smith has jokingly said she wants him booted off Dancing On Ice – so he doesn’t cheat on her with Rachel Stevens.
During a recent interview rugby player Ben branded singer Rachel the “sexiest woman in the world”.
But Jackie has insisted she’s not concerned about Ben straying, and sarcastically thanked fans for their concerns.
Taking to Instagram, she wrote: “Current mood: just getting so nervous by all the comments everyone’s been making, you’ve all convinced me my husband’s gonna cheat on me!!!
“Hoping for him to get voted off those show Sunday so he doesn’t have an affair with Rachel, please don’t vote for him on Sunday!”
Jackie – who married Ben in 2019 – continued: “He’s going to cheat on me if not already if he stays in! Thanks for all your concerns, you all just know your stuff!
“Thanks for being so vigilant and smart.. in this day and age it’s just wrong and stupid to have faith and trust in someone you love.”
Ben made the comment about Rachel during their promo interviews for the ITV competition.
Asked what she’s got that is “unique” in comparison to the rest of the competition, Rachel replied: “Oh my goodness… You’ve just got to go into it as yourself and take the opportunity to learn.
“It’s such a fun, amazing show.
“I just want to go in and do the best I can.
“Ultimately you have to bring yourself and have fun. You’re putting on a show.
“That’s what is so special. We’re all bringing something different and our own unique thing.”
Cheekily answering the question for her, Ben added: “That and you’re the sexiest woman in the world, Rachel.”
Ben was previously married to The Saturdays singer Una Healy and they share two children, Aoife, nine, and six-year-old Tadgh.
Their marriage ended in 2018 after six years and Ben later confessed to being unfaithful to the star.
In 2020 he and Jackie welcomed daughter Farrah.
