He is dating the mother of one of his friends
PSG forward Neymar is always in the news and not only because of his actions on the pitch.
For the tabloids, the fact that the footballer’s father has made a new relationship public has meant that the news has caused headlines in Brazil because it is the first known girlfriend of Neymar’s father since his divorce.
Brazil shocked by the announcement
In Brazil, news of this kind is sometimes more sought after than the successes of Brazilian players or the national football team itself. Since Neymar became a household name in 2013 when he signed for Barcelona, his star status changed and his family and inner circle became the focus of media attention.
The ‘Tois’, the group of friends who accompany the footballer, have always been well known, as well as the problems Neymar has had at some point with his father. Neymar da Silva, the player’s father, arrived last Sunday at a box at the Sambodromo da Marques de Sapucai, located in Rio de Janeiro, and appeared with Mariane Bernardi Santos, a romance that was already being talked about in Brazil.
This marks Neymar da Silva’s first public appearance after separating from talented PSG player Nadine Goncalves seven years ago. What now seems to be known is that this new relationship with Neymar’s father is not recent, as everything indicates that it would have started in mid-2021, with her son Andrei Bernardi, who is one of the Parisian club’s friends, being in charge of introducing them.
Neymar’s father went to the carnival parade grounds to see his youngest daughter, influencer Rafaella Santos. She came out dancing for Academicos do Salgueiro, a Scola do Samba based in the Brazilian city of Rio. With this public appearance, it was possible to see the age difference between the two, as he is 58 years old, while she is 45 years old.
