Steve Bull lived and breathed football during his playing days at Wolves.

But there is a lot more in his life these days – with his charity work, newly-found love of horse racing and his beloved young daughter.

According to Steve's wife and business partner Kirsty, three-year-old Gracie Jo is a real daddy's girl.

"She's very much like Steve in his laid-back way but with a wicked sense of humour," Kirsty said. "You can't get anything over her at all.

"She's very cute when she wants to be but she can also be quite shy when she doesn't know anybody or is pushed into a new environment where she's not sure about things. She will hold back in those situations and I've seen all of that in Steve as well."

Bully, now 46, who played almost 500 times for Wolves from 1986–1999, recently celebrated the first anniversary of The Steve Bull Foundation, which raises money for charity.

Kirsty continued: "The Foundation is so important to us. It was Steve who drove the idea from the outset of wanting to raise money for the less fortunate and when we set up the Foundation a year ago he set a target of £100,000 for the first 12 months, not really sure if it could be done. We got there a few weeks ago which is just fantastic."
