David & Victoria Beckham
The entire nation was captivated when news of David Beckham\'s alleged shenanigans with his PA Rebecca Loos emerged in 2004. While he and Victoria did their best to dismiss speculation of marital problems before the story came out, his refusal to issue an outright denial of the affair only served to fuel the rumours. Posh, unsurprisingly, chose to stay within the marriage, although commentators saw this as deplorable rather than commendable. Writing for the \'Daily Mail\', columnist Amanda Platell opined, \'Victoria has been totally parasitic upon his fame. It\'s no wonder she\'s fighting tooth and nail to keep this marriage together, because without it what is she? A faded, failed pop star\'

Sven Goran Eriksson & Nancy Dell\'Olio
The relationship between the cool Swede and fiery Italian was always tumultuous - not helped by reports of Sven Goran Eriksson\'s liaisons with, most notably, Ulrika Jonsson and PA Faria Alam. Despite Nancy Dell\'Olio\'s fury at his alleged infidelities, the coach\'s long-time lover stuck by his side for years, much to the chagrin of feminist commentators who suggest Nancy\'s intelligence (she studied law and languages at Rome and apparently reads Homer\'s \'Iliad\') should prevent her from not putting up with the constant humiliation. She, however, said, \'Love does not mean that every day is easy. Just because something happened that is really nothing you don\'t throw away the thing that you have there. It is the most important investment of your life\'. The couple since confirmed their split but whether it will last we won\'t hold our breath
Kimberly Quinn & Stephen Quinn

Kimberly Quinn
From the footballing world to the political... when it emerged that a twice-married American publisher, Kimberly Quinn, had a three-year affair with none other than the then Home Secretary, David Blunkett, it opened a can of worms. Amid paternity disputes (it turns out that Mr B was identified by DNA tests as the father of her elder son but not the younger), dodgy deals (Blunkett was accused of abusing his position to get Kim\'s nanny a visa), and the Home Secretary\'s resignation, events became increasingly acrimonious. Through it all Stephen Quinn stood by his errant wife, even though rumours abounded that he wasn\'t the father of her second child either

Wayne Rooney & Coleen McLoughlin
Yet another footballer\'s \'wife\' willing to forgive and forget. Furious Coleen McLoughlin threw away her £25,000 engagement ring after it emerged that her naughty fiancé had been playing away with ageing prostitutes (amongst other off-pitch antics, apparently also including gambling). But the Queen of Chav elected to stay in Wayne\'s World, nothing to do with the trappings of fame that come with it, of course not...
John & Pauline Prescott

John Prescott
Why a fairly attractive woman 20 years his junior would fall for the questionable charms of the Deputy Prime Minister is a complete mystery. But private secretary Tracey Temple, 43, did just that - conducting an affair, started in 2002, with her heavyweight-lover boss for two years. Why the equally attractive wife of \'Two Jags\' (to use his more respectable nickname), Pauline Prescott, would choose not to publicly ditch John Prescott is an even greater mystery. But like many a politician\'s wife, she has chosen to bite the bullet
Tom Jones & Linda Woodward

Tom Jones
Linda Woodward has been married to Tom Jones for almost 50 years. During their marriage, Tom has clocked up so many liaisons that he can\'t even put a number on it. When asked, he replied, \'I have no idea. I have never kept count.\' Yet he insists his cheating ways have never threatened his marriage. Speaking to the \'Mirror\', he said, \'She has never wanted to leave me and I have never wanted to leave her. She is happy with things and so am I. She wouldn\'t want it any other way\'
Mick Jagger & Jerry Hall

Jerry Hall
While it\'s true that Jerry Hall eventually filed for divorce from Mick Jagger in 1999 (the last straw seemed to be when he fathered a child with Brazilian model Luciana Morad). So she deserves a mention here for putting up with his many dalliances during their 20-year relationship and nine-year marriage, and for continually taking him back. But when forgiving and forgetting kept being thrown back in her face, Jerry called it a day with the ever-errant rock star, earning the admiration of the public and the media. Respect also goes to her for managing to stay friends with the father of her four children, whose current flame is said to be model L\'Wren Scott

Having your cake and eating it, too, is something many a shame-faced star knows all about - right, Jude? Some partners are fortunate enough to have forgiving other halves...

Zoe Ball & Norman Cook
The cool dude DJ and the sassy presenter seemed to have it all, so when Zoe Ball admitted an affair with DJ Dan Peppe, the British public went into shock and the media into overdrive. Luckily, Norman Cook is the forgiving type and said he was prepared to take his erring wife back if she promised never to see Peppe again. At the time he confessed, \'I still love her. If you love someone you\'ll forgive them.\' Although he has since admitted the pain of his temporary marriage breakdown can still cast a shadow over him, \'The scars are still painful and it haunts me. But the problems were a two-way thing and Zoe and I are wiser now\'
