The 10 Most Beautiful Sports Wives of All Time
93
There. I thought that might get your attention. Here they are: the ten most beautiful wives (and ex-wives) in sports history. These are not necessarily in order as I found it impossible to rank this incredible bunch of beauties.
No. 10. Victoria Adams Posh Spice Beckham.
We start with the the former Posh Spice of the Spice Girls, who married soccer uber-star David Beckham five years ago and the cameras have been clicking ever since. Look at this woman in the picture to the right. I would, but I'm afraid I might catch fire.
Number 9. Janet Jones-Gretzky
Sure, maybe she likes to lay down a few dimes on pre-season games between the San Jose Sharks and Columbus Blue Jackets. But no matter what her alleged gambling issues, no one can deny that Janet Jones is still one of the most beautiful women on the planet.
And to date, although she has been subpoenaed by the prosecution in the hockey gambling ring controversy that blew up a few years ago, she has never been charged with anything. Maybe she learned her lesson from watching Matt Dillon lose all that cash in the card game in The Flamingo Kid.
Anyway, God bless her, and God bless the Great One for marrying her and thus preventing the possibility of a sequel to American Anthem.
Number 8. Elsa Benitez
Elsa is not as famous as the other women on this list, and neither is her husband, retired NBA player Rony Seikaly.
But she is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
And that's good enough for me.
Mrs. Tiger Woods
Number 7. Elin Nordgren
She's Mrs. Tiger Woods. As if he needed anything more to be happy about. Tell me, when this girl is at home waiting for you, how in the hell do you stand around and hit golf balls for ten hours a day?
That's what separates Tiger from the boys, I guess. If I were him, I'd retire today, move to Jamaica with Elin, buy a beach front mansion and start a ganja farm.
Of course, if the Tiger had my mentality, he never would have landed Nordgren in the first place.
Number 6. Anna Benson
Anna Benson is still married to Orioles Pitcher Kris Benson, who was once a highly sought after pitcher until he proved that he really kinda stunk.
Anyway, before she met Kris, as in when he was in the minors, the voluptuous and curvaceous Anna was an exotic dancer in Atlanta. During her husband's career, controversy has always surrounded this knockout. She once said that if Kris ever cheated on her, she "would sleep with the entire Mets team." She also criticized Mets' General Manager Omar Minaya for "trying to build an all-Latino team." Some believe it was that last comment that led to Kris's trade to the Orioles, and to his decision to file for divorce in March of 1996.
Two weeks later, he withdrew the papers. I can kinda see why.
The Ex-Mrs. David Justice
Number 5. Halle Berry
This Academy Award winning actress married Atlanta Braves slugger David Justice in 1992. It seemed like a marriage made in heaven: the most beautiful woman in the world and the handsome young All-Star player on the best team in baseball. It only lasted four years, as the two split in 1996. At the time, I thought Justice had gone completely out of his mind. How could he possibly break it off with this Earth angel?
Then I saw her Academy Award acceptance speech seven years later and I got a pretty good sense of what drove David out the the door. Halle may be a little bit whacked. But who the hell really cares? Look at her. She is stunning. And she's a damn good actress, too. I'm just hoping she doesn't win another Oscar anytime soon. It might ruin the whole thing.
The Former Mrs. Dennis Rodman
Number 4. Carmen Electra
Yes, she was married to Dennis Rodman and yes it was only for like a week or something. So, some would argue that she doesn't really fit this category. Oh yeah? Look to the right.
I wouldn't care if she had only dated Eldridge Recasner or Anthony Goldwire for a few days; I still would have found a way to jam Carmen onto this list.
Norma Jean
Number 3. Marilyn Monroe
In the most famous of her three marriages, Marilyn Monroe wed Joltin' Joe DiMaggio in 1954 in one of the most celebrated weddings in sports history. The marriage was doomed from the start and ultimately ended after just nine months. Unfortunately for the Clipper, Marilyn enjoyed being a movie star more than she liked to cook spaghetti.
The two remained close until Monroe's death in 1962. By most accounts, Joe continued to love Marilyn Monroe until the day he died. I think a lot men have done the same.
Mrs. Aaron Boone
Number 2. Laura Cover
This former Playboy playmate is married to Aaron Boone. That's right, Boston Red Sox fans. He's the one who hit the homer that broke your back in 2003 and he's got this little jar of honey, too.
So what if Boone is now on the Florida Marlins and the Yankees can't beat my high school JV team? So what! Being a Yankee fan in 2007 means having to live in the past, because the future is just too damn ugly.
Okay, let's forget about New York Yankee baseball for a minute. Just for a second.
And take a good long look at Laura Cover. She will help numb the pain.
Die, Boston, Die!
Miss America
Number 1. Vanessa Williams
She will always be my Miss America.
Clearly the most beautiful woman in the world for the last twenty years, she married and divorced the handsome, but way too jheri-curled Rick Fox in 1999. The two divorced in 2005, making this beautiful and sexy singer/actress avaliable for all of you handsome young fellas out there.
Just give me a thumbs up on this article and I will give you her cell phone number.
Sure I will.

All of those women are hot, but I'd have to Throw Kobe's wife in the hat also.
I originally thought about a Top 20 list. Maybe I should amend it. I think I will . . . it's not exactly unpleasant work.
Me too! (Second only to Ramesh.)
I can't believe Posh is on this list! She's skeletal, at best - is that really sexy?
What about Eva Longoria? Most men go googoo for her and her little boy hips.
I believe they are all beautiful!!! My husband would have picked them the same way!! If you look at them they all have a different unique beauty that is seen in each and every one of them.
Elsa Benitez is so gorgeous I would vote for her
these are really uh nice i would say they are all good but Posh isnt that you know.
these are really uh nice i would say they are all good but Posh isnt that you know.
Gimme Elsa Benitez' number...woooh...she's hot!
Grant Hill's wife is hot too - Tamia....yes sir!
sooo nice
I have to go with M.M. Timeless beauty. Just like my wife.
take a good loooooooooong look at Laura Cover. She will help numb the pain.
WOW!
Great hub! Though I don't know if I agree with Vanessa Williams as number one... That might just be me, though, as the one time I met her she was less than pleasant. But who knows? Maybe she was having a bad day. :)
there is something hidden in every shots whicharroused me to take a analyse
vanessa williams, still beatiful at that age!!
Wow, nice collection of picures. Thanks
You could put it in Reverse order and still be right.
I don't need the cell number but this is a great hub; thumbs up.
P.S.
You could do a hub every six months on your personal pics for the coveted position of hot wives. You have a good eye and a gift for comment. I'll be looking for more.
Oh yeh I realy like Helle Berry, and don't find her excentric at all. [Smile]
It is best if can get top 20. Really love the picture you share here Thanks
I love Runescape
Rens..................hi up
Great Lens, love the pics and well written to entertain!
Great site. I can see why you have so many comments.
Great Hub, bu I wouldn't have picked Vanessa Williams as #1.
Nice to get the female perspective from Isabella and Ellie--one of them should do a Top10 Sports Husbands (or Boyfriends).
The pictures here are great, of course, but James also deserves credit for his sense of humor. The text beside each photo ends with the kind of dry, caustic wit that I always enjoy. My favorite is "preventing the possibility of a sequel to American Anthem." Now if only the media would give Elsa the level of attention that Carmen's been getting for 10 years, and vice-versa, life would make a little more sense.
What about Tom Brady? Isn't he someone's wife?
Their are so many beautifull woman/wifes in this world..Personally, i think HalleBerry is a little over rated!!....

I'd have to second that vote for Venessa Williams. Ron Seikaly, who new.
