Ronaldinho to marry two women at once? Brazilian football legend denies
Ronaldinho, who won the FIFA World Cup with Brazil in 2002, was reportedly set to marry Priscilla Coelho and Beatriz Souza in August, but the Barcelona great has denied the claims
Brazilian football great Ronaldinho has denied reports in the media that he is set to marry two women at the same time at his home in Rio de Janeiro this August.
“The whole world is calling me, I’m not going to get married. It’s the biggest lie,” the former Barcelona star told Brazil’s SporTV in response to the reports.
Earlier, Brazilian newspaper O Dia had reported that Ronaldinho’s wedding ceremony will be a rare form of three-person civil union.
Bigamy, which is illegal in Brazil, has punishment by up to six years in jail. It had been further reported that the wedding would simply be a ceremony with two women and won’t be registered as two marriages .
