Rangers ace Aaron Ramsey's wife wows Instagram fans with hoard of delicious food recipes

Aaron Ramsey's wife Colleen may live a jet-set lifestyle - but she reckons her "happy place" is at home in her kitchen.

Colleen, who has been married to the new Rangers ace since 2014, is a cooking whizz and regularly shares a slice of what she's serving up for her family for her 22.4k fans on social media.

The 31-year-old has racked up an impressive Instagram following over the years thanks to her incredible culinary skills.

It's no wonder they're all eating up her content, with a grid that is stuffed full of delicious sweet and savoury treats.

It's still to be confirmed if she'll be joining her husband in Glasgow but the signs are looking likely that she will.

And it could mean we could be seeing a Scottish influence on her pages very soon, to replace the Italian themes that have of course been featured until now.

As we reported yesterday, the mum-of-three is not your usual WAG when it comes to her hobbies and interests.

Instead of focusing on designer handbags and 5-star holidays, she chooses to upload pictures of scrumptious treats for her children, decadent meals for fellow "foodies" like herself, and lots of wholesome pics of her nearest and dearest.

Colleen has clearly been inspired by her adopted home for the past few years and has picked up a few cooking techniques favoured by Italians.

After her husband left Arsenal the family moved to Turin, Italy, when he signed for Juventus in 2019, and Colleen was soon surrounded by a nation of passionate home cooks she could relate to.

As a result, her previous posts are an array of mouth-watering Italian dishes including Cugine della tagliatelle, Parmigiana di melanzane and classic Carbonaras.

Colleen met her childhood sweetheart Aaron when they were children growing up in the same Caerphilly village.

They wed privately in a lavish shindig which took place across several days and locations around the Caribbean and Wales.

The main ceremony took place at Caldicot Castle in southeast Wales and was attended by Ramsey's teammates from Arsenal and the Wales national team, including Theo Walcott and Gareth Bale.

The couple have three children together - Sonny, six, and three-year-old twins Tommy and Teddy - and they are also well catered for at home by their talented mum..

A former model, Colleen has her hands full with her three boys but still finds time to cook up some special tasty treats for them, with quirky kids' recipes also dotted about her Instagram feed.

They may have travelled the world thanks to Aaron's career but Colleen clearly never forgets her roots, with British favourites and traditional fayre also featured.

One such recipe showed her love for food is extensive and varied as she said: "Hurray For jersey royal potatoes!

"I really enjoyed cooking this. Cooking can be like painting with fire
"It’s difficult to paint with fire with the little ones off school. But to scratch my culinary itch I stayed up late to make this last night and it was worth it."

Colleen even paid tribute to the late Michel Roux on her page, showing she is a fan of some big-hitters in the chef world.

So we're excited to see what she cooks up when she's inspired by Scotland!Rangers fans have been on top of the world since the Ibrox side signed Juventus loanee Aaron in a shock transfer deadline day move.

The midfielder said he hopes to "fit right in" with his new teammates and looks certain to do so.

There was an electric atmosphere at Ibrox as he came off the bench in the second half of the 5-0 rout against Hearts earlier this week.

After the match he said: "It was a good one to come in on. The boys did really well and I'm happy to make my debut in front of that atmosphere.

"Hopefully now I can play a lot more and get my fitness up quickly and really get going here.

"There is a lot of talent in this team and they showed that a few times, and scored some fantastic goals. Hopefully I can fit right in.

"I was itching to get on, and kept looking over because the warm-up was going on a bit (laughs).

"It's good to get some minutes in the legs."
