It’s not unusual for Jane Given and her VBF Annette Rocca to be in Marbella at this time of year.

Well, the two beauties did meet Tom Jones after his concert two weeks ago in Marbs.

The gorgeous Glaswegian (and the ex-wife of Irish footballing icon, Shay) told me she was “really looking forward to supporting the ISPCC Brown Thomas Ladies’ Charity Lunch on September 2 at the Intercontinental Hotel in Dublin.

“I’m having such a special time here in Marbella with my children,” she added, referring to Shay Jnr and Sienna. On July 17, Jane was the stand-out in her red Alexander McQueen dress at the Global Gift Gala at

the Gran Melia don Pepe. The lady in red being a stand-out is really saying something, given (sorry, no pun intended) the other guests at the gala included Eva Longoria and Brazilian supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio. “It was an amazing night.”

So was the Global Gift Party on a boat in Ibiza, and later at the STK in Ibiza, on July 19, which Jane attended along with X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger, Amaury Nolasco of Prison Break and Alesha Dixon.

I think you will agree that you can tell by the picture of Jane on the boat with Nicole et al that she seems to be living it large off the Balearic Islands. It would have been remiss of me not to ask about her relationship status. “I’m single, happy,” came the reply, “and excited about the future.”
