Michael Ballack's WAG displays her own fine form as she soaks up the sun in Miami


Chelsea soccer star Michael Ballack looked thrilled to be an end-of-season sunshine break with his wife - and it's not hard to see why.

Simone looked terrific in Miami in her mismatched bikini, offering little evidence that's she's borne the German international three children.

The 31-year-old has a figure many women would envy, and she appeared to enjoy every moment of her time on the beach - no doubt being away from the rain and gloom in London helped.


Sunshine break: Chelsea player Michael Ballack and wife Simone Lambe enjoy a break in Miami together

She and Ballack, who looked pretty toned himself in a pair of black boardshorts, spent much of the day soaking up the rays on their sunloungers before treading the shallow end of the sea to cool off.

Of course there is plenty to smile about when your husband is earning upwards of £130,000-a-week salary at Chelsea, who he joined in 2006.




Simone was a humble waitress when she met Michael, 32, a decade ago in East Germany, where he was born and played for his first club.

According to the footballer, it was love at first sight when he saw her working in a cafe in Kaiserslautern, the city to which he signed in his early days as a player.

They have three children, Louis, 6, Emilio, 5 and Jordi, 3.

The couple married last summer in the Knight’s Hall of the Bavarian Palace Kempfenhausen.

Ballack has every reason to enjoy his break after picking up his second FA Cup winners' medal with Chelsea last month and finishing third in the Premier League.
