Ex-Arsenal hero nearly became a 'lord' after bedding baroness beauty with £245m net worth

Nicklas Bendtner dated Baroness Caroline Iuel-Brockdorff

Arsenal cult hero Nicklas Bendtner once claimed that he was one of the top forwards on the planet.

"If you ask me if I am one of the best strikers in the world, I'd say 'yes' because I believe it," he said. And while that clearly wasn't true, the Danish frontman did bag 45 goals in 171 games for the Gunners.

He was also one of the great characters of the game during the 2010s, mainly for his extracurricular antics. Jokes were often made about his wastefulness in front of goal, but he couldn't stop scoring off the pitch.

Bendtner, who turns 37 today, January 16, has dated a long list of beautiful women. And he even could have acquired a royal title thanks to his relationship with a Danish baroness, Caroline Iuel-Brockdorff, in the late 2000s.

Caroline actually relinquished her Baroness title when she married banker Rory Fleming - a first cousin once removed of James Bond writer Ian Fleming - in 2001. But alongside her royal blood, Caroline's daughter, Josephine, is the goddaughter of Mary Donaldson, the crown princess of Denmark.

She and Bendtner were seen together at Hyde Park in London on November 2009, having reportedly met when Caroline was filmed renovating her family home, Valdemar's Castle, on a reality show. The former Arsenal man was a guest on the show.

The following year Caroline gave birth to Bendtner's son, but in 2011 the couple went their separate ways. A friend of the couple said: "It was a whirlwind romance and they were madly in love – perhaps they did realise in the end they were poles apart in age and outlook.

"The birth of a child can put a strain on any relationship but there seems to have been more pressure on them both recently in the last couple of weeks."

Another source added: "They decided to go their separate ways now rather than have a messy divorce in the future. They will of course remain in close contact because of the child."

However, Bendtner would officially acquire the 'Lord' nickname in 2015 when Danish magazine SE Og HOR claimed to have purchased the striker some land in Scotland, meaning he can legitimately refer to himself as Lord Bendtner.

The magazine claimed to have a deed that sees Bendtner the owner of a meter square area of land in Glencoe Wood. Elisa Lykke, Bendtner's agent, said he was delighted with the honour: "We have seen it, and Nicklas thinks it's a fun gimmick."
