How My Wife’s Che@ting Escapades Gave Me Sleepless Nights AND…. – Football Legend Francesco Totti
Italian former professional footballer, Francesco Totti, has claimed that his marriage to Ilary Blasi broke down because she did not support him following his retirement from football and when his father died due to Covid-19.
Totti married former showgirl and TV presenter Blasi in 2005, and the couple have three children together. However, they announced that they had separated in July, and Totti has now revealed the reasons behind the split.
The 45-year-old retired from football in 2017 and has admitted he struggled to cope without being out on the pitch, before losing his father to Covid in October 2020. During those challenging times, he feels that his wife was not there to comfort him.
“I have lived through a difficult period, first because I stopped playing and then my father died due to Covid,” Totti told Corriere della Sera, as quoted by Marca.
“I also had a strong Covid (illness) for 15 days. However, my wife, when I needed her most, was not there.”
Following their break-up, there has been some speculation that Totti may have cheated on Blasi as he now has a new partner, Noemi Bocchi.
However, Totti has looked to set the record straight, stating that he found out last year that his wife had been cheating on him.
“It is not true that I was the first to betray. I said I was not going to speak and I did not, but I have read too many hoaxes in recent weeks. Some have even made my children suffer,” he continued.
“In September of last year the rumors began to reach me: ‘look, Ilary has another one. Indeed, more than one.’
“I had never done it in twenty years, nor had she ever done it with me. But when I received warnings from different people, whom I trust, I began to suspect.
“I looked at her cell phone and I saw that there was a third person, who acted as an intermediary between Ilary and another.“
