Brazilian football legend Romario has sparked interest by dating a woman 24 years his junior, following the conclusion of his seven-month relationship with a 25-year-younger influencer.
The 58-year-old father of six raised eyebrows as he was recently photographed at a Rio de Janeiro beach with a curvaceous brunette sporting a mini Brazil flag bikini.
The newfound companion of Brazilian football legend Romario is revealed to be 34-year-old event promoter Maria Geusiane Santos.
How the duo met
Reports from Brazilian media suggest that the couple has been dating for two months after meeting at a bar in Rio according to reports from TheSun.
Maria, who hails from Ceara in north-east Brazil, has relocated to Rio, marking the first romantic association linked to the former footballer turned politician, known for his playboy reputation.
Previously, reports indicated that the fashion graduate, Marcelle, 31 at the beginning of their relationship, ended her romance with former Brazil international Romario upon discovering his infidelity.
Marcelle breaks silence
Despite initial expectations of marriage, highlighted by family introductions and a trip to Fernando de Noronha, Marcelle responded to the rumors by stating that their lives had different rhythms and projects.
The breakup was portrayed as a mutual decision, and she emphasized their commitment to remaining friends.
Romario, who recently celebrated his 58th birthday, is reportedly taking his relationship with the soon-to-be 35-year-old Maria Geusiane Santos one step at a time.
The couple has been spotted enjoying days at the beach and participating in the renowned Rio de Janeiro carnival, embracing various experiences together.
While neither Romario nor his new partner have officially confirmed their relationship, an announcement is anticipated in the upcoming weeks.
Romario’s previous known girlfriend before Marcelle Ciolin was a 22-year-old student named Ana Karoline Nazario.
The football legend has six children from various relationships, including a son born out of an extramarital affair with an actress during his second marriage to Daniele Favato.
