Giggs brother describes him as a worm

London - The betrayed brother of Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs, Rhodri, 34, has tearfully described the former as a "worm" for having bedded his wife Natasha during an eight-year-long affair.

Rhodri, still struggling to come to terms with the affair, is convinced the United wing legend just had to be competitive, even in love.

The Sun quoted him, as saying: "He took Natasha despite him having everything and me nothing. She was the only thing I had and he did not - so he took it."

Rhodri revealed he can no longer even bear to watch the Welsh wizard play on TV.

Rhodri was a regular at Old Trafford, where Ryan is the most highly decorated player in English football history, but he has not been to the stadium since he found his brother had bedded a curvy Natasha.

He told The Sun: "I used to look forward to matches. Now, I look at the team sheet to see if he's playing. If he is, I don't watch. I can't wait for him to retire. Knowing someone who has been your hero for most of your life has been sleeping with your wife just hurts too much."

Rhodri is 400-pounda-week player-manager at semi-pro Salford City, while Ryan is on a massive 75,000-pound-a week. But he believes Ryan's success at a young age made him think he could do as he pleased.

He said: "He had a company car at 17. Ryan thinks he's untouchable, most of those footballers do. He did this to me because he would get away with it."

Rhodri said when he confronted Ryan last year about his betrayal, he categorically denied it. He even asked to heal an earlier rift that had stopped them speaking.

Rhodri recalled: "He said to me, 'We need to be brothers again, we have never been the same since we became so competitive against each other'.

"That made me think, 'Are you jealous of me? I don't understand. Look at me compared to you. I think you won'."

Holding back tears, Rhodri said: "When we were kids we were inseparable. I looked up to Ryan and I still did until last year. But not any more."

Rhodri and Natasha are trying to rebuild their relationship for the sake of their two children.
