When Wanda Nara announced last July that her 10-year relationship with soccer player Mauro Icardi had ended, perhaps she thought she was closing the book on that chapter of her life.
Six months later, her divorce is still not finalized and her relationship with Galatasaray striker Icardi is more tense than ever. Things couldn't have gone much worse for the TV presenter and football agent.
Those who have followed the story of Nara and Icardi over the last decade may not be entirely surprised. Their journey has not been easy, as the couple faced very public consequences before reconciling on multiple occasions. Why would we expect their divorce to go smoothly?
Well, one problem seems to have been that Icardi didn't want the divorce in the first place. The wife to accept him back.
But Nara was in no mood to forgive and decided to move on by starting a new relationship with Argentine rapper L-Gante.
The couple were first seen kissing in a music video in 2022, which left Icardi furious, and he doesn't seem to have been any happier this time around.

Icardi is now in a relationship with actress and model China Suarez (pictured) and the couple have moved into their dream home in Nara.
Nara was left furious after spending Christmas without her children and accused Suárez of trying to turn her daughters against her.
In response, Icardi began his own romance with actress and model China Suarez, with whom he allegedly cheated on Nara when they were still together, and Nara is convinced he is seeking revenge after she walked away from him.
In a recent appearance on the Argentine television program JUSTICENara revealed that Icardi vowed to “destroy” her when she asked for a divorce as she claimed he had bought her dream home – a $4m (£3.3m) mansion in Argentina which she had planned to share with Icardi. when he retired. – so that he and Suárez live there.
“Seeing this woman uploading photos of the house I dreamed of for my daughters breaks my heart,” Nara said.
'That house is mine because Mauro bought it when we were married. In Argentina there is no division of assets. That house will belong to my daughters and mine too. “This is not a separation, it is a constant provocation.”
But Icardi has no intention of sharing the house with Nara, and according to Paparazzi.comHe already gave Suárez permission to decorate the property to his liking.
If that wasn't enough heartbreak for Nara, she also spent Christmas away from the two daughters she and Icardi share.
Francesca, 9, and Isabella, 8, spent the festive period with their father and Suárez, who has three children of his own from two previous relationships, and Nara has accused her ex-husband's new girlfriend of trying to put her daughters against him.
'Someone who helped them in a toy store wrote to me and said: 'I'm with these girls because their mother abandoned them,' Nara revealed.

'That's a big lie. I never abandoned my daughters. I didn't see them because Mauro didn't sign the authorization for me to leave the country with them. She decided to keep the girls so they wouldn't be with me at the parties.
'Before China, our life was perfect. When I asked him for a divorce, he swore he was going to destroy me. Now he carries out his threats, uses my daughters and allows this woman to say things as serious as that I abandoned them.
'I never thought anyone would be willing to do something like that, especially a mother.'
After not being around her children over Christmas and having Icardi's new relationship rubbed in her face, Nara broke more bad news last weekend when she confirmed that she and L-Gante had gone their separate ways.
In a post on Instagram, she explained that she had made the difficult decision to focus on her children amid her complicated legal battle with Icardi.
In a now-deleted Instagram Story showing her and L-Gante holding hands, Nara wrote, “Today our paths go our separate ways, so we can take care of each other and focus on our work and our family.”
'My complex and painful legal situation made me make this decision. Today my children need me and my time is totally dedicated to them.'
Nara had been dating rapper L-Gante (right), but they have now broken up so she can focus on her children.

But Nara has insisted that she will not give up her fight to come out on the other side of her divorce hell with her head held high.
