Sylvia van der Vaart had a long and illustrious career as a model and television personality way before she met the Ajax’s Rafael van der Vaart (should I mentioned that happened in 2003 after she was voted Holland’s sexiest female? Nah of course that had nothing to do with it).

They soon became the Holland’s golden couple (think Beckhams but in Dutch) and their wedding in 2005 was broadcast live.

Rafael is signed by HSV and the couple is the new media darling of the German press.

Sylvia was voted as Miss Bundesliga (well that is not really surprising just look at her). Sylvia gave birth to their son Damien just before the World Cup in Germany.
