Mario Balotelli’s ex-girlfriend Raffaella Fico has openly discussed her tumultuous relationship with the former Inter Milan star.

Despite enduring public betrayals, Fico admitted to forgiving Balotelli, attributing it to a deep love that overshadowed his wrongdoing.

In an interview with RAI Play, as reported by MARCA, Italian model Fico described Balotelli as “the great love” of her life, acknowledging the pain caused by his repeated betrayals.

She disclosed: “He cheated on me on more than one occasion, they were public betrayals, they could not even be hidden. I forgave him because I was very much in love. Balotelli was the great love” of my life.”

Recalling their first meeting at a disco, arranged by Balotelli’s sister whom Fico had met on ‘Celebrity Island,’ she recounted the romance that eventually led to her heartbreak.

The Italian model added: “I met Balotelli at the disco. I went there with his sister, whom I had met on ‘Celebrity Island’. His sister gave him my number, then we started talking, we went out together and at the end of the evening he pulled a bouquet of roses from the hood of the car.”

In the same interview, Rafaella Fico went on to discuss the child she had with Mario Balotelli and revealed that the footballer initially did not want to become a father.

In July 2012, Raffaella Fico, Balotelli’s ex-girlfriend, announced she was expecting his child.

Their daughter, Pia, was born on December 5, 2012, but Balotelli insisted on a paternity test before accepting any parental responsibilities.

In February 2014, Balotelli finally acknowledged paternity of his daughter Pia following a positive DNA test.

Fico added: “He didn’t want to be a father and asked me for a DNA test, maybe because he was too young, at the beginning he didn’t feel like being a father.”

Despite the wounds inflicted by Balotelli’s infidelity, Fico’s words reveal a resilient spirit of forgiveness intertwined with the complexities of love and loyalty.

Through her candid revelations, Fico’s story serves as a reminder of the complexities of love and the power of forgiveness in overcoming obstacles.

The model, who claimed Cristiano Ronaldo was her first boyfriend emphasized the importance of forgiveness and understanding in maintaining a relationship, even in the face of infidelity.

She concluded: “I do not hold a grudge, I have forgiven him everything because from our relationship our daughter was born and she is my great love.”

The Italian singer and model stated that the Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo was her first boyfriend, labeling their relationship as “a beautiful, intense story that I hold close to my heart.”

She relayed in the interview: “I was 20 or 21 years old, I was in Sardinia at an event, I met him on that occasion, he approached me, started courting me, and we exchanged numbers. That’s how this little story began.”

“I didn’t even know who he was. I was with my agent who said, ‘Look who you have,’ and I asked him who he was. He explained that he was one of the best footballers in the world.”

Balotelli was once considered a highly promising player in his youth due to his versatility as a forward, combined with his strength, speed, and goal-scoring ability.

He is renowned as one of the top penalty kicktakers in the world of football, having previously featured for clubs such as Inter Milan, Manchester City, AC Milan, and Liverpool.

In 2010, he secured the treble (UEFA Champions League, Serie A, and Coppa Italia) with Inter Milan and also claimed victory in the Premier League and FA Cup while playing for Manchester City.

However, his talent has been overshadowed by criticism for his negative attitude both on and off the field.

Mario Balotelli currently plays for Adana Demirspor in the Super Lig.
