Lionel Messi’s wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, has finally addressed the ongoing rumors surrounding Argentine sports journalist Sofia Martinez. For some time, speculation about a potential secret affair between Martinez and Messi had circulated, fueled by their exchanges of meaningful glances and smiles during interviews. Roccuzzo had remained silent on the subject until now, choosing to express her feelings through her actions. She appointed Martinez as the host for the launch of her Optime collection and the Bs As-Miami training event. Antonela also reacted to a post Martinez shared about the event, liking it and leaving a comment with three fire emojis—a response that quickly caught fans’ attention, earning over 700 likes.
With this gesture, Roccuzzo appears to have definitively put the affair rumors to rest. At the very least, it clearly signals that there is no tension or ill will between her and Martinez.
