Argentine football legend, Diego Maradona, has been kicked him out of the pad he shared with his young fiancée, Rocio Oliva, even though he owns it, according to reports. Maradona and Oliva have reportedly split. Argentine journalist, Lio Pecoraro, broke the news on the ‘Todas Las Tardes’ programme on the El Nueve channel.
Pecoraro said: “The ex-footballer was thrown out of the house he gifted to Rocio in Bella Vista. The ex-number 10 doesn’t want to leave. The relationship between them is finished.” The pair are said to have split up after Oliva, 28, described herself as single on TV show ESPN Redes, which Pecoraro says “fired Diego up”, adding that the pair argued at their home for a whole weekend. Maradona, initially, asked Oliva to marry him in Rome in February 2014, but it took him until her 28th birthday in July, 2018, to present her with an engagement ring.
Oliva played football professionally in Argentina for a number of clubs. She reportedly met Maradona in 2012 after he divorced his ex-wife Claudia Villafane back in 2003. Maradona first proposed to Oliva in February 2014 while the couple was in Rome. They will reportedly set a date for their wedding soon.
Diego Maradona is a retired professional footballer often regarded as one of the best in the world. He was born on October 30, 1960 in Lanus, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
