And Abbey Crouch looked like she was feeling confident as she stepped out in a leopard-print outfit with a big smile on a visit to the Radio One studios on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old WAG looked sultry in a pair of tight, leopard-print jeans paired with a black silk shirt and taupe heeled boots.

She also continued the feline theme with an oversized, black-and-white leopard-print handbag.
She wore her long blonde locks flowing and sported her favourite tortoiseshell rimmed sunglasses and bright red manicure.

She joked that her handsome Slovenian dance partner Aljaz Skorjanec should pretend he is single even though he has a girlfriend.
Speaking to the Radio Times, Aljaz said he has a girlfriend, fellow Strictly professional dancer, Janette Manrara, 25. But Abbey told him: ‘Say you don’t. We’ll get more votes!’
Abbey also told the magazine that she felt lucky at being partnered with the 23-year-old, saying: ‘The most nerve-racking bit was finding out my partner — I never thought I’d get Aljaz.’

Meanwhile, Abbey is facing some competition in terms of sex appeal from her fellow contestant Sophie Ellis-Bextor.
The singer, who is paired with professional dancer Brendan Cole, has promised to liven the show up with some skimpy outfits.
Sophie told the Radio Times: ‘I hope that by the end I’ll be completely encrusted in diamante with a hot body like the pro girls, wearing little outfits with tassels.
‘I used to perform at nightclubs in my pants, so I’m not nervous.’
