Epilogue
TEAGUE-FLINT: On 1 November at Chelsea Register Office, William Teague to Francesca Flint, nee Thwaite.
IN A MOVE that’s come as little surprise, Clayton Silver has been appointed player-manager of Shadwell, the club that was left in disarray with the sudden death of their former chairman last year and the consequent financial chaos. After the bumper sale of players in January, Silver (31) is credited with making a team of the few players who remained and keeping them in the Premiership. His career with Shadwell started…

As the nights draw in, cheer up the dark days of autumn with the latest in Becca Guy’s fun and stunning collection of scarves, as seen tucked under some of the most famous chins in town. (Did you spot fabulous Foxy in one last week?) When not knitting up north, Becca is otherwise known as the fiancée of Chelsea striker Alessandro Santini. This is a WAG who’s very much her own boss, but we hear there are plans for two weddings—one in England and one in Italy—next summer.
TOP MODEL FOXY is swapping one side of the camera for another as she plans to go back to school. Foxy, or, to give her her Sunday name, Matilda Alderson, is going back to college this autumn to study photography. ‘It’s what I’d always planned to do, it’s just that I’ve got a bit sidetracked in the last few years,’ said the stunning redhead. ‘I shall probably still do the occasional assignment, but now I really want to learn to take pictures of my own, and modelling will very much take second place to that.’
If she needs any help or advice, Foxy can always turn to any number of the fashion industry’s top snappers, many of whom rate her as their favourite model. But she might prefer to ask partner Dexter Metcalfe, himself a respected photographer, with whom she recently opened the intriguing Hartstone Chapel Gallery in the high Pennines.
Footballers were out in force on Saturday when Shadwell’s player-manager, Clayton Silver, married Tilly Flint in a very traditional wedding. Best man was Denny Sharpe, manager of Silver’s first club. The bride was given away by her stepfather, restaurateur Bill Teague. Tilly, a former food journalist, has recently joined her mother ‘Fairtrade’ Frankie Flint to bring new ideas and a new approach to England’s favourite coffee bars. The bride wore a simple but stunning silk dress, and carried a bouquet tied with cherry-red velvet ribbons.
