Neve Campbell, the Scream queen, is set to become an unexpected WAG in football history following her date with Alan Smith.
It appears that the Newcastle United midfielder has taken an interest in the Scream queen.
Neve is good friends with Aussie singer Natalie Imbruglia, and a common friend has facilitated their introduction. This implies that the actress could become a Toon Raider.
Known as Smudge, Alan Smith, 30, is intending to treat Neve to a romantic dinner…likely featuring homemade bread pudding accompanied by chips and gravy.
An insider disclosed, “Alan openly admits that he has a crush on Neve. Upon discovering their mutual friend, he urged this friend to arrange a meeting. He was over the moon when Neve agreed, and he’s been telling his buddies that he plans to go all out to ensure the night is as romantic as possible.”
Given Smudge’s complicated dating history, he’ll need to elevate his behavior to a premier league standard if he hopes to make this work with Neve, who is 37.
His previous relationship with British soap star Gemma Atkinson and an encounter with model Sophie Bovington-Kerr in the
bathrooms at an England party, which occurred when he was dating Holly Worthington just before a key 2008 European qualifier, are part of his past.
Neve, a Canadian, has faced her share of heartache as she was left devastated after her recent split with actor John Light. They tied the knot in Los Angeles in 2007 but divorced in June of the previous year.
Her first marriage was to another actor, Jeff Colt, which ended in 1998 after merely three years.
According to a source, Neve is looking forward to re-entering the dating scene and is enthusiastic about meeting Alan. While it’s still early days for her and Smudge…if there’s grass on the pitch…then the game is afoot!
Of course, for Smudge’s benefit…let’s hope there isn’t an excessive amount of grass on the pitch.
