The pair’s love story first made headlines in July during Yamal’s 18th birthday celebrations, when Nicole flew to Barcelona to join the festivities.

Since then, she had been a regular at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, cheering from the stands and sharing affectionate moments with the teenage prodigy online.

Their bond quickly captivated fans, blending football and showbiz glamour in equal measure.

However, things began to unravel earlier this month when Spanish tabloids reported that Yamal had met Italian influencer Anna Gegnoso during a quick trip to Milan.

The rumours sparked heated discussions across social media, forcing both parties into the spotlight.

Eventually, Yamal confirmed the separation in a brief conversation with journalist Javi Hoyos, revealing that the relationship had officially lasted 67 days.

In her own statement to photographer Jordi Martín, which was later published by Spanish outlet MARCA, Nicki Nicole sought to put an end to the speculation.

“I don’t usually do these things, but I wanted to clarify that Lamine and I haven’t been together for a few days, since I left Barcelona,” she said.
She went on to address the swirling rumours of cheating: “I'm telling you this mainly because of the infidelity rumours. If someone were unfaithful to me, I would be the first to clarify it, as I have done in the past.
