Melanie Slade and Theo Walcott.
His name would have meant very little to most of the nation until the England coach, Sven Goran Eriksson, named the striker in his squad for the World Cup, despite never having watched him play a match in the flesh.

Walcott grew up in Compton, Berkshire, and it was not until he was 11 that he played his first game. Such is his natural talent that in his first season, he scored 100 goals in 35 games and is known for his speed - he ran the 100 metres in just 11.5 seconds when aged 14.

Walcott made a £12m move to Arsenal when he was barely out of his school uniform.

He became the youngest footballer to play for England when came on during the second half for Tuesday night's friendly against Hungary, beating Wayne Rooney's record. Whether or not he is picked during the World Cup, his celebrity status is guaranteed - as is that of his girlfriend and AS-level student Melanie Slade.

England's wives and Girlfriends

Colleen McLoughlin girlfiend of Wayne Rooney

Coleen McLoughlin

Age: 19
Position: Affianced to Wayne Rooney
Status: Childhood Sweetheart
Form: Until Wayne's injury, Coleen was the odds-on favourite to romp home with the greatest tabloid photo-goal average for the tournament. She's already surpassed Posh not just in terms of changing outfits on a minute-by-minute basis, but because she has found herself a bona fide niche in the nation's affections. We have witnessed her hoodie-to-Prada transformation first-hand and the details of their courtship - the time he proposed on a petrol station forecourt with a £25,000 ring, the time she threw the same ring into a squirrel sanctuary after finding out about his visits to a brothel - are the stuff of Anglo-Saxon romance. A finer demonstration of the Birchenall dictum it would be harder to find.

Melanie Slade

Age: 18
Position: Theo Walcott's girlfriend
Status: Childhood Sweetheart
Form: None. The great thing about Melanie is that no one has yet seen her perform in front of the paparazzi, so she's the perfect receptacle for all our hopes and dreams. Her romance with Theo developed two years ago when they began meeting outside Claire's Accessories in the West Quay shopping centre in Southampton, where she worked part-time. Melanie performed her first photo-call wearing a Shy Di expression offset nicely by a low-cut top. And although there are signs that she could break new ground for the team by acquiring educational qualifications, her plea to be left alone to study for her A-levels rather than spending the next few weeks posing naked for FHM could jeopardise her chances of an extended tabloid love-in.

Alex Curran

Age: 23
Position: Engaged to Steven Gerrard and mother of his two children, Lilly-Ella and Lexie
Status: Will Do Anything For Publicity
Form: Mixed. There's no doubt that Alex makes a good photo. Nor that she knows how to shop. Yet she has consistently failed to make the grade. Her sole contribution to the gaiety of the nation has been to swap boyfriends with Jennifer Ellison and to subsequently become her sworn enemy (Jen was dating Steven, Alex was dating businessman Tony Richardson, and then they switched: who stole whom off whom is still the subject of some debate and perhaps Ellison's autobiography, for which she has reportedly received a £500,000 advance).

Cheryl Tweedy

Age: 22
Position: Girlfriend of Ashley Cole
Status: Famous Already
Form: Promising, at least inasmuch as if any member of the England squad might grab the headlines by doing a Tanya Turner from Footballers' Wives and decking another wife, it would have to be the Girls Aloud singer. In 2003 she was found guilty of assault, but cleared of racially aggravated assault, after what was described as 'an altercation with a nightclub toilet attendant'. She helpfully pointed out that she could not be a racist because she was friends with Javine Hylton of Popstars. Beyond that, Cheryl won a Sun poll to find the celebrity whom people would most like to see topless and in 2006 the title of 'Sexiest Footballer's Wife' in the FHM Bloke Awards.
