Two months later and Neymar has penned an emotional statement on his official Instagram account after 'cheating' reports emerged from Brazilian outlet Em Off.
He wrote: “I made a mistake. I made a mistake with you. I dare say that I make mistakes every day, on and off the pitch. But I solve my mistakes in my personal life at home, in my intimacy with my family and my friends.
"All of this affected one of the most special people in my life. The woman I dreamed of following by my side, the mother of my child.
"It reached her family, which is now my family. This reached its intimacy in such a special moment as motherhood.”

Neymar added: “Bru, I have already apologised for my mistakes, for the useless exposure, but I feel obliged to reaffirm it publicly. If a private matter has gone public, the apology should be made public.
"I can't imagine myself without you. I don't know if it will work between us, but TODAY you can be sure that I want to try. Our purpose will prevail, our love for our baby will prevail, our love for each other will strengthen us.”
He ended the message by saying: "ALWAYS US. I love you ❤️."
