Lamine Yamal’s ex Alex Padilla denies cheating on Barcelona star
“I am not unfaithful to anyone. I have never been unfaithful,” Padilla stated as fans filled the comment section with questions about her rocky relationship with the footballer.
Padilla’s romance with Yamal has been anything but quiet.
Their relationship first caught the public eye when the Barcelona forward introduced her during Spain’s 2024 Euro-winning celebrations in Germany. From that moment, fans scrambled to know more about her.
Just months later, whispers of infidelity cast a shadow over the pair. Despite the gossip, they reconciled around Christmas.
Padilla even stood proudly beside Yamal when he received his Globe Soccer Award in December.
The couple was later seen dining at celebrity hotspot Nusret’s steakhouse and enjoying Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi.
Their reconciliation, however, didn’t last. Reports suggest the two have finally gone their separate ways, each now seeing other people.
Yamal has been linked with Argentine singer Nicki Nicole, whose name surfaced repeatedly during Padilla’s live session.
When pressed about her ex’s new romance, Padilla gave a cryptic response that only fueled more curiosity:
“If I were to speak… the world will fall apart,” she teased while sitting beside her friend Alejandra.
Since their split, Padilla has stepped away from the spotlight, only making rare appearances online.
Lately, however, she has returned with a noticeable glow-up. Fans have praised her resilience and highlighted her close bond with her best friend Paula, who has remained by her side through it all.
Despite moving forward, the speculation refuses to die down.
Padilla’s firm denial of cheating, combined with her subtle hints about Yamal’s new relationship, continues to stir intrigue among fans and the media.
Who is Lamine Yama’s new girlfriend?
Yamal’s reported new partner, Nicki Nicole, is already a star in her own right.
Born in Rosario, Argentina, the same hometown as Lionel Messi, the 25-year-old has carved out a name as one of South America’s hottest music acts.
With chart-topping hits like Colocao and Wapo Traketero, she has become a force in both reggaeton and trap music.
Nicole previously dated Argentine rapper Trueno before their reported breakup in 2024.
Despite the buzz surrounding his love life, Lamine Yamal has stayed locked in on the pitch.
The 18-year-old has been on fire this season, directly contributing to four goals in just three La Liga outings, scoring twice and providing two assists.
He was on target as Barcelona were held to a 1-1 draw by Rayo Vallecano on Sunday, August 31, as noted by Football Espana.
