Riyad Mahrez and Taylor Ward began dating in 2020 and welcomed a daughter in 2022
Taylor Ward admitted to her friends that she'll look like "the biggest tramp" due to Saudi Arabia's wardrobe restrictions.
The Manchester-born model swapped her hometown for the Middle East after husband Riyad Mahrez secured a £30million move to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli this past summer, putting an end to his five-year spell with Manchester City.
A new reality series made by Amazon Prime Video called ‘Married To The Game' documents the lives of five Premier League WAGs and their footballer partners' as it also catches footage of Ward, 26, preparing for her sudden move to Saudi Arabia with her 33-year-old husband.
Cameras spot the model hastily packing her family's bags as she told her friends the extent of Saudi Arabia's strict policy on the modesty of women, telling them: "No lashes, no nails. Oh my god, I'm going to be the biggest tramp when I come home you're not even going to recognise me."
Given that the country is an Islamic state, women are expected to dress modestly with tight-fitting clothing and see-through materials being generally prohibited.
The 26-year-old isn't able to be as glammed up as usual
The culture shock had Ward in tears at one point when explaining a story when she found out the swimming pool in her hotel was strictly to be used by men. "I won't lie, I had a freak out yesterday," Ward can be seen telling sister Darby on camera.
"I rang the hotel to ask, 'I'm coming with my baby, what do people wear around the pool?' I know it is a lot more conservative there and you have to dress a certain way. I said, 'I just want to check when I come with a baby, what is the best thing to wear? Do I need to wear something covered if I am going in the water?' They were like, 'Oh no sorry, it's just a man's pool, it is just a gents' pool.'"
She's been in Saudi Arabia for seven months and found the transition tough
The blonde beauty added she was even unaware alcohol was banned in the country and only found out when Mahrez had told her. "I know it is so stupid, I don't even like swimming or getting my hair wet, but it is just the reality check of you are not moving to Spain," she remarked.
"It is a very different way of living, I didn't realise until Riyad told me that you couldn't drink over there."
