Brazilian football star Neymar and his model girlfriend (formerly fiancée) are expecting a child.
The couple shared the news in a joint post on their respective Instagram pages on Wednesday.
The announcement was accompanied by a series of photos showing off the model’s pregnancy belly.
The post caption reads: “We dream of your life, we plan your arrival and know that you are here to complete our love, leave our days much happier.
“You’re going to join a beautiful family, with a brother, grandparents, uncles, and aunts who already love you very much!
“Come soon child, we are waiting for you!
“‘Before I formed you in the womb I chose you; before you were born I set you apart’ – Jeremiah 1:5.”
The baby will be the Brazilian footballer’s second child after 11-year-old Davi Lucca.
The lovers decided to celebrate their rekindled romance with a new bundle of joy though they haven’t revealed if it will be a boy or a girl.
Biancardi and Neymar began dating in 2021, making their relationship status official in January 2022. Later in August, however, they broke up shortly after announcing their engagement.
At that time, the model confirmed the split, while dismissing infidelity rumours.
She said: “I’ve always been myself and you guys know this, but because you keep asking, I’d like to make it clear that I am not in a relationship and there was no infidelity. I care deeply for him (Neymar) and his family! Please refrain from mentioning my name. Thank you very much!”
In early 2023, the pair began dating again, and have now taken the next step in their relationship by having a baby.
