Frankie Bridge’s footballer husband Wayne misses her first West End night – to watch ageing rocker
FRANKIE Bridge looked on fine form as she celebrated following the press night for her West End show 2:22 A Ghost Story.
The Saturdays star, joined by co-star Jaime Winstone, wore a little black dress for the event on Wednesday.
But her husband, former Chelsea footballer Wayne Bridge, shunned the show to see another of his favourite people instead.
He was seen singing along to tunes including Live Forever and Wonderwall as Liam Gallagher took to the stage for an intimate one-off performance at Koko in North London, where the Oasis rocker surprisingly reunited with one of his famous former bandmates.
But alas, it wasn’t Noel, it was Oasis’ guitarist Paul Arthurs, also known as Bonehead, who made his music comeback after being given the all-clear from cancer.
Fans went wild for the duo – with one telling me how he’d paid £290 for his ticket to watch Liam play.

“I owe a debt of gratitude to my incredible castmates and to every member of our extraordinary company, who became fast family. It means the world to me that so many fans travelled to London to see the show.
“If you’re booked for future nights, please still go and support my brilliant co-stars. They will blow you away.
