Louise Redknapp, wife of Jamie Redknapp, is now closer to 40 than 30. And so she has developed a cunning strategy to keep her looking good: she surrounds herself with ugly women. It's not a new strategy, but usually good-looking girls choose to have just one or two ugly friends, rather than a harem of them.

Only joking, of course: Louise was in Liverpool for some charity fashion swap thing, where she got to meet ordinary folks like you and me. Sniff.
