THE success of the women’s game and the Lionesses has allowed these footballers to flourish away from the pitch.

England’s women’s enjoying success – winning Euro 2022 and reaching the World Cup 2023 final – catapulted them to fame, while inspiring the legions of young girls around the country wanting to follow in their footsteps.
That rise means these girls are getting to live their best lives.
From stylish photoshoots with fashion mags to exclusive red carpet invites, their lives could not be more glam.
Leah Williamson
Leah is one of football’s leading fashionistas.
Since her heroics with the Three Lions, she has become a hot commodity reportedly raking in £4million.
Her bank balance boosted by deals with Gucci, Nike and Pepsi.
While the 27-year-old is also a regular feature on the red carpet, and attended the GQ Men of the Year Awards with pals Alex Scott, Chloe Kelly, and Mary Earps.

Magazines like Vogue, GQ and Elle have featured her in fancy fashion shoots.
Williamson, who scored an OBE in the 2022 King’s New Year’s Honours list, also features heavily in Arsenal kit and fashion launches.
When she’s not playing, she’s likely to be seen letting down her hair at a music festival, enjoying Glastonbury earlier this year.

Chloe Kelly
Equally, Chloe – who famously scored the winning goal in the Euro 2022 final – also appears on the celebrity party circuit.
Last year, she attended the Glamour Women of the Year Awards where she dazzled in a risqué black dress.
She posed for pictures with Spice Girl Geri Horner, and was joined by Jess Carter, Bethany England, and Alessia Russo.
Before the World Cup, the blonde beauty, 26, stripped down for an artsy black and white for a Calvin Klein photoshoot.
Chloe modelled Calvin Kleins’ famous cotton underwear, as well as their essential baggy jeans style.
Back in August, she married her boyfriend of five years – Scott Moore – in a glittering ceremony at Merrydale Manor in Cheshire.
The event was hosted by British Vogue and was some spectacle.

Mary Earps
Since moving to PSG, the queen of TikTok is enjoying a new city.
Earps still poses hilarious videos online, including getting to grips with driving in Paris as she settles in in the French capital.
Shortly before she inked her deal with the club, she enjoyed a day at Silverstone where she was invited by McLaren for the British Grand Prix.
The 31-year-old goalie, who wore a dress created by a designer who works with Beyonce and Rita Ora, also made time for a stunning holiday in Ibiza to recharge her batteries.
Back in February, the BBC SPOTY winner upped her game – appearing in a gorgeous photoshoot for Women’s Health UK.
She also became the new face of Victoria’s Secret – designing a range that includes “ultra-comfy and supportive styles, super soft materials and understated designs” to promote self-love and women empowerment.

Alessia Russo
Russo, who last month appeared at London Fashion Week, is believed to be the first woman in the WSL to earn more than £1million-per-year.
She has done that through sponsorships, including with Adidas, Gucci, PlayStation, Oakley, and Beats by Dre.
With celeb fans such as David Beckham — and his daughter Harper — she is already such a national treasure that her boots have been displayed in the Tower of London.
She has amassed over 850,000 followers on Instagram, where she gives fans a glimpse into her epic lifestyle.
Russo, 25, shares pics of her amazing fashion sense, including glam photoshoots showing off collaborations with Adidas and Gucci, as well as a pair of Paul Smith/Stan Smith trainers she’s seen clutching tightly and smiling.
In the summer, she and Ella Toone went partying at the Ushuaïa Ibiza Beach Hotel.
They also rented a boat for the day and topped up their tans.
Last year, Russo appeared at the Fifa Football Awards and dazzled in a David Kona dress, matched with Louboutins and expensive De Beers jewellery. She screams star power.

Ella Toone
Russo’s best mate, Toone – the Man Utd star is equally up for a good laugh.
She is the Arsenal forward’s partner in crime, they regularly travel together during preseason break, and have their own podcast.
Like her Lionesses teammates, Ella also makes a few quid from paid partnerships on Instagram.
Back in June, she shared her skincare routine using Charlotte Tilbury products.
Toone, 25, is also in a romance with fellow footballer Joe Bunney, who plays for Stalybridge Celtic.
They reportedly met through mutual pals, and were spotted enjoying a romantic break away in Ibiza shortly after she tasted success at Wembley.
Back in March, they took some time out to enjoy the five-star Carden Hotel & Spa in Cheshire.
Toone posted pics of the pair enjoying the hot tub and keeping warm round a fire pit in their robes.

Lauren James
James, 23, is already one of the hottest commodities in the women’s game.
The Chelsea forward has football connections, with her brother Reece captaining the Blues’ men’s team.
Independently, she has scored off the pitch – earning sponsors including Nike, Google Pixel, Optimum Nutrition, Barclays, and Sure.
It is believed she has a net worth over £1million, despite her tender years.
She has over 870,000 followers on Instagram, where she shares snippets of family life.
James is also quite the hipster, mixing streetwear and sporty attire – wearing brands like Justin Bieber’s Drew House, Supreme, and Adidas.
She also teamed up with Spotify, revealing her diverse playlist.
In an ad, she revealed: “I could go from Afrobeats to… next one could be a country song.”
