SOUTHAMPTON football legend, Matt Le Tissier and his and wife won £30,000 for charity.

The former attacking midfielder and his wife Angela appeared yesterday on ITV quiz show Mr and Mrs.

Matt and Angela answered a series of questions about their significant other, in hopes to win the jackpot for their chosen charity, Hampshire hospice - Naomi House & Jacksplace.

Although known for his exploits on the pitch, Le Tissier is no stranger to game shows.

Last year he scored a hat-trick of wins on Countdown and left with high praise from presenters Nick Hewer and Rachel Riley.

Le Tissier and Angela met in a night club in Southampton in 1996 and have been married for eight years.

He said: “There was a very strong instant connection.

“There were no mobile phones in those days,

“I knew her name and that she was a Southampton Football club season ticket holder.

“So I went to the office, wrote a note and left it on her seat for her to find when she came to the next home game.

“The note definitely worked, because she’s been my wife now for eight years,” explained the Saints hero.

The besotted couple got question after question right, sending them into the final, with the ability to win the huge jackpot.

“I’ve never met anyone else that I would want to spend the rest of my living day’s with” said the former Southampton football club captain.

Wife Angela echoed: “I love Matthew so much. He is my world. He is an amazing father and my best friend."

The £30,000 question was “Which celebrity was Angela’s childhood crush?”

To which Matt replied, through gritted teeth ‘Micky Adams’, his former Saints team mate.
