I've no axe to grind here - I don't particularly admire either of them. He's probably a Tory, same as his cousin Frank Lampard. Louise isn't a terrible person but didn't exactly take a low key approach after the split. We had a daily diet of headlines and attention seeking. If she was thinking of her sons she might have thought twice of some of the posed photographs.Trashing of reputations has become a national pastime so I'd go with evidence rather than tittle tattle.
Below is a quote from the Superinjunctions forum a few years before Strictly:
Celebrities have as much right to a private life as anyone else.
Do they though? Off the top of my head I can think of one who does have a private life, Jamie Redknapp. He's happily married, doesn't go out on the town, doesn't cheat, doesn't do much of anything really. Because of that we don't see his photo in the papers, the press leave him alone because he's boring.
Giggs on the other hand slipped it into a big brother contestant/glamour model. He's a cheat and he tried to avoid exposure by turning to the courts, instead of just doing what Redknapp does and keep it in his pants.
