Real Madrid shelled out a world record 84.62 million pounds (100 million euros) to buy Gareth Bale from Tottenham Hotspur.

But Bale’s girlfriend Emma Rhys-Jones is said to have composure of a monk! Unaffected by the money, the 23-year-old may leave Spain afterwards because she prefers a quiet life.

Emma Rhys-Jones is Bale’s high school sweetheart.

The 25-year-old’s famous love heart celebration when he scores a goal is dedicated to Emma.

The glamorous Emma was thrown into the spotlight this week after her man was unveiled as Real's biggest ever signing following his world record move from Tottenham.
