Since then a whole host of clubs from around the world inquired after him, including Dutch giants Feyenoord who tried to sabotage the Cremonese deal at the very last.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">But in the end the 38-year-old decided to sign a one-year contract with the Italian club, with a further year on offer should the newly-promoted club avoid relegation. And his new club have made a flying start to the new season. The team are currently joint top of the league &#8211; flying high after winning both of their opening Serie A matches, against Sassuolo and European football giants AC Milan. And Jamie could now make his Cremonese debut on Monday, 15 September, away at Hellas Verona.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">A source said: \u201cHe is relishing the chance to prove himself in a different league.

And earlier this year Rebekah paid the final instalment of the cool \u00a31.27m of Coleen\u2019s legal costs following their High Court battle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The judge said at the time that he hoped the costs settlement would represent the \u201cend of a long and unhappy road.&#8221; A pal said: \u201cThere\u2019s no doubt it was a tough time for Rebekah. But she is made of strong stuff and has drawn a line under the whole affair.

It seems she and the family really are living La Dolce Vita.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The iconic Italian phrase translates as \u2019the good life.\u2019 And as for Jamie, there is no doubting his thoughts when it comes to how important a role his wife plays in the family\u2019s new life.
