If you’re not familiar with Wayne Lineker, allow us to introduce you.
He’s the multi-millionaire younger brother of former
England footballer and now broadcaster Gary, who owns Ibiza’s Ocean Beach club and was behind the Lineker sports bar brand.
His name is always prefixed with ‘playboy’ in the tabloids.But it seems Wayne is finally ready to settle down and is on a quest for love after he posted an ‘ad’ for a partner on
Instagram on Tuesday and well, it really is quite something.
Wayne’s criteria for his new “wifey” includes having “body definition”, being able to cook and be “above 30 (Ok 28, 29 could work) but not my age as that would just look weird”.
In return he promises a world of world travel, Bentleys and use of his PA (who FYI, you should send your details to if you’re interested).

Joe’s criteria centered around eggs mainly. Well, not mainly, entirely. This is something we are very much on board with….

Back in March, at the start of lockdown, the comedian gathered his showbiz chums to record their very own version of John Lennon’s Imagine in response to Gal Gadot and her famous pals singing along to the classic, which went viral for all the wrong reasons.READ MORE: Joe Lycett Shares One Last (Very Silly) Statement As Hugo Boss, As He Reverts To Original Name Why Comedian Joe Lycett Has Legally Changed His Name To Hugo Boss Gary Lineker Tops The BBC's List Of Highest Earning Stars, But Who Else Made The Top 10?
