Neymar and his girlfriend Bruna Biancardi have officially separated just a month after welcoming their first child together.
The footballer, 31, and the influencer, 29, announced the birth of daughter Mavie on October 7, saying their newborn 'came to complete our lives'.
Their split comes after speculation over recent weeks that they are no longer together, amid rumours of Neymar being unfaithful.
Posting on her Instagram story, Biancardi confirmed the news as she said: 'This is a private matter, but since I am often associated with news, suspicions and jokes, I would like to inform you that I am not in a relationship.
'We are Mavie’s parents and that is the reason for our relationship. I hope you won't associate me with the news so often anymore. Thank you.'

Neymar had faced accusations of cheating on Biancardi in recent times with compromising footage emerging earlier this year of him partying with two different women in a Spanish nightclub.
In fact, a report in BILD even claimed the pair had a bizarre sex contract that allowed Neymar to flirt and sleep with other women.
Even more strangely, there were specific conditions for the contract. This included that the Brazilian was not allow to kiss women on the mouth, had to use a condom during sex and that the relationship must stay secret.
There are also allegations he asked Brazilian OnlyFans star Aline Farias for nudes, with Farias reportedly releasing screenshots of her conversation with Neymar.
Meanwhile, in June he was dogged by further allegations of infidelity with influencer Fernanda Campos, prompting him to post a groveling apology to Biancardi on social media.
He wrote: 'Bru. I do this for both of you and your family. Justify the unjustifiable. No need to. But I need you in OUR lives
'I saw how much you were exposed, how much you suffered with all of this and how much you want to be by my side. And I stand beside you. I did wrong with you all. I risk saying I'm wrong every day, on and off the pitch. Only I solve my mistakes in personal life at home, in my intimacy with my family and friends...
'All of this hit one of the most special people in my life. The woman I dreamed of following beside me, mother of my child.
He added: 'Bru, I already apologised for my mistakes, for unnecessary exposure, but I feel obligated to come publicly reaffirm that. If a private matter has become public, the apology has to be public. Can't imagine (being) without you. I don't know if we'll work out, but TODAY you're sure I want to try.
'Our purpose will prevail, our love for our baby will win, our love for each other will make us stronger. ALWAYS US. I love you.'
Neymar - who also has a son from a previous relationship with Brazilian influencer Carolina Dantas - was with Biancardi since 2021.
They kept their romance private before going Instagram official in January 2022. However, they announced the end of the relationship in August 2022, before rekindling it soon after.

The split comes amid a difficult time on the pitch for Neymar. The 31-year-old completed a £78m move to the Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal in August from PSG, signing a two-year deal worth £130m-per-season.
However, last month he suffered a serious knee injury while playing for Brazil in their 2-0 defeat to Uruguay in World Cup qualifying.
Neymar is set to miss the rest of the campaign after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his left knee.
Reports earlier this month also claimed Al-Hilal boss Jorge Jesus is planning to de-register Neymar from his squad as he looks to create room for a new signing from abroad.
