GLAMOROUS Sky Sports host Katharina Kleinfeldt made headlines on Saturday after suffering a howler of a blunder on TV.

But the cringe-inducing moment is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the fascinating life she leads.

Kleinfeldt, 34, is a presenter for Sky Sports in Germany , and was covering Saturday’s clash between Frankfurt and Werder Bremen when she made the slip up.

Following the match, which ended in a 4-1 victory for Frankfurt, Kleinfeldt appeared on camera ready to interview Bremen skipper Marco Friedl.

However, a shirt exchange made before the interview with ex-teammate Michael Zetterer meant he appeared in the shirt of his opponents.

Kleinfeldt mistakenly congratulated Friedl on his side’s victory , in response to which he awkwardly revealed he played for Bremen, and shrank away from his interviewer.

She admitted: “I’m really just… Marco, sorry. This is my fault.”

She doubled down on her apology after the incident, saying: “The situation is very unpleasant and annoying.

“I interviewed Marco before the match on the bus afterwards, I saw the Frankfurt jersey and for a moment I just… got it completely wrong.

“I hope Marco can smile about it after a few days.”

Kleinfeldt leads a busy life and will surely have enough on to take her mind off the incident.

Away from the pitch, she leads a glam lifestyle, which she shares with her 88 thousand Instagram followers.
