Only one AFL player brings his mum to Brownlow Medal Awards

Talk about giving them a run for their money! Western Bulldogs player Marcus Bontempelli has walked the red carpet at the Brownlow Medal Awards with none other than the woman who raised him.

While most of the other players brought their girlfriends or wives – or went solo – Marcus decided to treat his mum to a glamorous night out.

His mum, Geraldine, looked absolutely stunning showing just what style over 60 can look like.

While there were some great looks on the red carpet, the Brownlows are notorious for fashion fails with many WAGS traditionally opting for cleavage and butt-baring dresses – like this…

Marcus seemed to be ecstatic to have his mum with him on his big night.

“It’s a proud moment for me to be invited and it’s great I’m able to bring mum along as a massive thank you for the work that she and dad have put in over the years,” he said.

Geraldine said: “I feel like I’m the child today, and he’s the parent bringing me along. I couldn’t be prouder of him.

“(Attending the Brownlow) is something I really didn’t have on my bucket list, but I’m so pleased to be here, and seeing all the other ladies outfits, and being with my son.”

While many over 60s say it’s difficult to find nice clothes once you reach a certain age, it’ nice to know it’s not impossible!

Do you like Geraldine’s look? Would you wear something similar?
