Former footballer Neil Ruddock won’t be short of suits to wear on his wedding day later this year.

The ex-Liverpool and Spurs defender, nicknamed ‘Razor’ Ruddock in his playing days, made his second trip this month to Golders Green tailor Gold’s Factory Outlet on Monday to pick a suit for his marriage to glamour model Leah Newman, 31, in August.

Mr Ruddock, 44, who appeared in Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year, picked up an eye-catching white number during his trip to the store, in Golders Green Road, this week.

Earlier this month, the father-of-four was forced to help extinguish a fire which took hold of a bin outside Gold’s Factory Outlet after picking up a fresh batch of suits.

But there was no repeat of this drama during his visit on Monday.

Speaking to the Ham&High at the store, Mr Ruddock said: “I’ve picked up a nice white linen number today. Mr Gold has been providing my suits for years and years.

“I’m a bit of a big fella and I can get some big stock here. I spend an afternoon when I visit, I come once a month.”
