Ryan Giggs was a one-club man, spending his entire career at Manchester United, and is one of the greatest players in Premier League history.

However, his reputation took a significant hit in 2011, when his eight-year affair with his brother's wife was exposed. Natasha Lever married Rhodri Giggs in 2010, but just 12 months later, it was revealed that she had secretly been involved with his footballer brother since 2003.

Ryan was married to Stacey Cooke from 2007 onwards, but both relationships eventually ended in divorce after everything went public. But what has happened to Rhodri and Natasha since the messy fallout?

In 2025, Rhodri got involved in an exchange with an X user, in which he revealed he's earned 'a s*** load of money' since the affair. The now 49-year-old works in recruitment and runs a podcast called 'Rhodri Giggs on Football', although he hasn't posted an episode in 2026.

Responding to a comment about his wife and brother's infidelity, he said: "Mate, it was over 14 years ago and I’ve got 2 kids with someone else and made s*** load of money from it.

"I buzz off it. It was 14 years ago and I made about 1 million from it."

Rhodri has also claimed his brother isn't the only footballer Natasha had been with. Speaking to The Sun in 2021, he said: "I could name ten footballers she had been with.

"After it had all happened, I went to Portugal with two naughty lads and as I walked into one of the bars, one of the guys was stood behind the door with his mate.

"And as I walked in and I walked to the bar, I turned around. And all you could see was the door shutting. I could go on and on.

"They are all it. Everyone is s******* everyone. It could be your mate. It is warped. One of his mates said, ‘Ryan, this is your kid’s wife – what are you doing?’ But no."

Despite publicly backing Ryan for a place in the Premier League Hall of Fame in 2025, he continued: "Ryan deserved to be on a pedestal because of his career. But he ruined his legacy by doing what he did."

He is set to remarry 15 years after the affair, as he's been engaged to Victoria Phillips since 2025. Rhodri and Natasha had two children together, while he has since had two more.

She and her new husband share seven children with different partners. In 2012, Ryan Giggs' former sister-in-law appeared on Celebrity Big Brother and stated: "I had a really long affair with a footballer who happened to be my brother-in-law."
