NEW WAGS ON THE BLOCK

-

It’s a big weekend for three Kiwi WAGS. Jess, wife of Kiwis’ captain Adam Blair, would have been clapping for her husband last night during the second Rugby League World Cup game against Scotland in Christchur­ch.

And today the partners of new All Blacks’ winger Matt Duffie and hooker

Asafo Aumua will be wishing them well as the ABs play the Barbarians at Twickenham. Elodie Gray-Tafatu went to Wellington airport to see her partner Aumua off last weekend for four weeks. The lovedup couple are cute together on the Hurricanes’ scene and have recently added a pair of rapidly growing puppies to their relationsh­ip.

Perri Thane moved to Auckland from Melbourne to be with her Blues-player fiance Duffie early last year; she was with him watching the live stream of the announceme­nt when he had made the ABs late last month, writing on Instagram of her man:

“So proud! Dreams really do come true.” Thane has taken well to life in Auckland and said: “a big yes” to Duffie when he proposed on Waiheke last November.

Also crossing the Tasman, this time from Brisbane will be Jess Blair, who is expected to join her husband Adam in January as he settles into life with the Vodafone Warriors, after leaving the Brisbane Broncos recently.

The Warriors couldn’t have two better new role models than the couple, who have two young sons and live a wholesome, healthy life. Jess has more followers on Instagram than her hubby, at 46,000 she is 8000 up on him.

Look out local lifestyle bloggers, Jess is a naturopath and nutritioni­st, a health, fitness and wellness teacher and we are sure that presence on the scene will be strongly felt in New Zealand next year. Her brand is Wellness by Blair. The personal trainer knows how to stay in shape and has competed in fitness modelling in Australia and in America.
