May 5, 2016

This week Ben Cohen swapped rugby for football to play in the 'legends' match between England and Germany – and pregnant girlfriend Kristina Rihanoff was right there to support him. 

Former rugby union star Ben, 37, managed to score both goals during the match at Upton Park, but that wasn't enough to stop Germany winning 7:2. Despite this, Ben and 38-year-old Kristina looked more than happy as they celebrated after the game with a couple of unlikely friends.

Kristina also made the decision to quit BBC's Strictly but insisted she left on good terms with everybody. "It is the most exciting thing I've ever done," she said. "We are a tight bunch. It's not the glamour or the costumes I will miss, but those guys. "I think I am on a new path. Learning about myself, how to relax and how to enjoy a more simple and balanced life. I can't say I'm not nervous. But I'm very excited about the future."
