Affair with Neymar Gave Her International Exposure

Despite being a successful model, Gabriella Lenzi was only exposed to international media after being involved in a relationship with Brazilian forward Neymar at the age of 19 in 2014. In April that year, shortly after Gabriella posed at Barcelona’s stadium Camp Nou, the Spanish media began reporting that she was dating Neymar. Later in July, the two were first spotted together publicly during the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. Unfortunately, the affair lasted only for a few months. Nevertheless, some people like to think that Gabriella’s popularity is partially due to her hookup with the former Barcelona playmaker. Interestingly, before becoming involved with Neymar, Gabriella was in a relationship with Zambian footballer Gabriel Kunda Junior. She is also rumored to have dated Canadian singer Justin Bieber briefly due to the fact that the two were spotted together by the paparazzi.
