WAG OF THE WEEK: MEET LORENA BERNAL!

Part of our mandate on this blog is to let y'all know about the delectable WAGS (Wives And Girlfriends) of your favorite Athletes... Sportunes will be a breeding ground for WAGS as these beautiful women have become part and parcel of an athlete's life.

Many vault from being previously unknown to becoming household names as we have seen in Andy Roddick and  Brooklyn Decker. While some probably made the athletes household names just like what Kim did to Kris. Some 'equally' shine bright like diamonds alongside their HABS (Husbands and Boyfriends) like Mr n Mrs Beckham.

The lifestyle of a professional athlete is stunning already so when these guys get to go home to some of the worlds most beautiful models, forgive us if we don't shed a tear for them. 

Our WAG of the week goes to;

Lorena Bernal

Lorena Bernal Pasqual is a 32 year old model and WAG of Arsenal Vice captain Mikel Arteta. Born in Argentina, she moved to San Sebastian, Spain when she was just 1 yr old. A multi linguist, Lorena speaks Spanish, French and English fluently and started modelling since age 7. 

She was Miss Spain 1999 at the age of 17 but couldn't represent the country at Miss Universe due to her age. She went on to compete at Miss World where she was among the top 10 finalists.

Since then, Lorena has worked as a model, TV Host and an actress in Spain and the USA. Fans of the USA series Chuck will remember her playing an international arms dealer in 2007. She also appeared in CSI: Miami as a Nanny named Mia in the Epsiode ''My Nanny'' also in 2007.

She had an exorbitant wedding with Mikel Arteta in 2010. The couple had their first child, Gabriel in 2009 in Spain. Their second child Daniel was born in 2012 also in Spain. Lorena looks an awful lot like Megan Fox, the Hollywood Hottie. 

 Even though Mikel Arteta is still yet to play a match for the Spanish senior national team, he doesn't deserve any sympathy and any which ways, we at Sportunes congratulate the former Everton man on scoring the best goal of his life. Damn she's hot!!!
