France and Spain face off on Tuesday evening at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, for a place in the World Cup final. France, seeking their third title after winning in 2018 and losing the 2022 final, take on Spain, champions in 2010. While the action unfolds on the pitch, the stands will feature several high-profile partners of the players.
French WAGs in the Spotlight
The most visible French WAG is likely Zoe Cristofoli, partner of Theo Hernandez. Known for her tattoo-covered body, she is no stranger to the camera. Theo's brother Lucas Hernandez is married to Victoria Triay, a supermodel who said: “My journey has been never-ending. I started off young and had to give my best to grab an opportunity that will change my life.”

Spanish WAGs Making Headlines
On the Spanish side, Dani Olmo's partner Laura Abla Schmitt recently revealed an embarrassing moment: “I set up my camera and it films for 15 minutes. Then I edit together two minutes...I was trying on tops that day. I was undressing the whole time. I was completely naked in that video footage.”
Ana Fuster Garcia, married to Alex Grimaldo since May 2022, has a young daughter with him. Rodri's partner Laura Iglesias, a medical student, keeps a low profile but has been spotted at events like the Ballon d'Or ceremony.
