Much was made of the divorce of Spanish heartthrob Alejandro Sanz from his Mexican model wife, Jaydy Mitchel. There were rumors that Alejandro was gay (and having an affair with Spanish pop star Miguel Bosé), or that he was going back to his ex girlfriend and mother of his first child, yada yada. Now we know he’s moved on with his life and has a new girlfriend, a Puerto Rican beauty ten years his junior whom he refers to as his “personal assistant”.

All of that is fine and good, but the real chisme is that Jaydy, Alex’s ex, has moved on as well. And, not to be outdone, has scored herself another superstar. This one is her paisano, Rafael Márquez, arguably Mexico’s biggest sports star, and player for the legendary Barcelona soccer team.

This rumor had been going around for months now, but Spanish chisme magazine Qué me dices confirms it with some new photos.

Spanish media, relentless as they are, have been following the couple around Barcelona, and are quick to point out that Rafa was still married to Mexican actress Adriana Lavat when he started dating Jaydi. Adriana was quite pissed when she found out in March, stating on a Spanish TV show:

“He has betrayed me. A few weeks ago I listened to two messages on his cell phone and when I asked him who Jaydy was, he said he didn’t know anyone by that name.”

Of course he did, what did you expect him to say?!

Both Jaydy and Rafa had been denying the relationship for months, and there was even talk of a reconciliation between Jaydy and Sanz.
