Footballer Jamie's ex-wife reveals she lost her identity after marrying him

Louise

Former England footballer Jamie Redknapp's ex-wife, singer Louise admitted that she lost her sense of identity after marrying the midfielder, now a pundit for Sky Sports. Louise, voice behind the chartbuster, Naked, divorced Jamie last year, after almost 20 years of marriage. She said she no longer made herself a priority after marriage.


"As you start getting older, other things take over. You have a family to look after, you're running a household and your career path changes. When that happens, it's easy to start losing that strong sense of identity that was once your biggest priority," Louise, 43, told British daily, Daily Express yesterday.

Louise's comments come a few weeks after she and Jamie, 45, reached a financial settlement following their divorce. "It's so hard because I love him. He's an amazing man and we've had 20 good years together. I know he's trying to understand that I need to do this. People might look at me and think I've got everything, but a sweeping staircase and designer handbag doesn't really do it for me," she added. Louise is mother to sons Charley, 13, and Beau, nine.
