As the camera panned to her husband’s embarrassed expression, the room erupted in fits of laughter.
As Australia’s eyes were on the outfits that the WAGs wore to both the Brownlow Medal and Dally M Awards last night, the beautiful Tessa James took the stage in Sydney to present an award at Rugby League’s biggest night.
Walking the Dally M’s red carpet last night, the 24-year-old spoke honestly about her recovery from Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, which she was diagnosed with last year.
“I found it really important to raise awareness of the disease that I had,” she told Daily Mail Australia.
“And also to raise awareness of women and men in general to look after themselves and be aware of their bodies. Everyone goes through a struggle, and it’s okay. I’m very proud of it.”

Many, many years ago I went to the Brownlows as a WAG before the term 'WAG' was in our vocabulary. It drives me crazy that it has become a fashion parade and the red carpet gets ridiculous attention. The night is about the guys... to acknowledge the best in the field. I'm sure there were many wives and girlfriends who felt uncomfortable with the pressure of the fashions - not every partner is a model or 'glamour'. Can we just keep it about the best player - male and/or female?
