Happy family: Alex Curran, pictured here with husband Steven Gerrard and their two daughters earlier this month, has denied her marriage is in troubleAlex Curran has hit back at rumours her marriage to Liverpool and England star Steven Gerrard is over.
The Liverpool-born WAG is said to be devastated over the gossip which has spread across the internet like wildfire over the past few weeks.
Recent pictures which showed the 27-year-old without her £75,000 wedding ring on did nothing to suppress the rumours.
But she spoke to OK! magazine to defend herself against claims the three-year marriage had come to an end, and dismiss allegations that they had split following a series of shocking incidents.
Alex, who has two children with Steven - Lilly-Ella, six, and Lexie, three - said: 'There have been loads of rumours going around Liverpool saying that me and Steven have split up, that he's moved to a hotel and ridiculous things like that.
'I'd like to set the record straight. We have never been happier.
'I wouldn't mind [the rumours] but we don't even argue.'
Pampered WAG: Alex, pictured here in Liverpool earlier this week, said Steven keeps the romance alive by treating her to meals outRumours the couple had parted first emerged on the internet three weeks ago, although talk of their apparent relationship troubles have been the topic of discussion on blogs and forums for some time now.
No ring: Alex was pictured last week without her £75,000 engagement diamond and wedding bandThe most recent stories were circulated on Twitter and then forwarded around the country via text messages and emails.
Sources had claimed the original sender heard the gossip from 'someone who knew the John Terry story before it came out.'
It was also alleged that the reason the stories were not in the press was because Steven, 29, had taken out an injunction.
Other gossips said the England star had moved out of the family home and was living in a hotel in Southport - and his rumoured plans to move to Real Madrid were fuelled by their apparent marriage troubles.
However, Alex told OK! that Steven makes the perfect husband.
She said: 'He always plans little dinners and if I've been out sometimes with the girls and I'm a little hungover he'll get up with the children for me. He's really thoughtful like that.'
And she revealed they have the same nickname for each other, which they have used since they got together in 2002.
She revealed: 'He calls me "pet" and I call him "pet" - we've had that for years, since we met.'
Before Gerrard, Alex dated Jennifer Ellison's ex Tony Richardson, while Gerrard was dating Ellison herself.
At some point, the couples ended up with each other's partners, with Gerrard and Curran staying together and marrying in June 2007.
