My Family is not going through financial hardship – Brazil footballer, Raphinha’s Wife

Natália Belloli, the wife of FC Barcelona and Brazil star Raphinha, has slammed claims that the couple is experiencing a financial crisis.

Following rumours spread on a Brazilian podcast by ex-player Vampeta, she publicly dismissed the story as absurd, noting that even earning a fraction of his current income would leave their family extremely blessed.

Belloli also cleared up falsehoods surrounding their family and rejected the notion that Raphinha’s father and her father were in conflict.

“Honestly, I think it’s absurd that I have to talk about my financial life. If we were earning just 10% of what Raphinha earns right now, we’d already be incredibly blessed,” she told Daily do Garotinho.

”I see no need to expose this on my social media, because I’m fully aware of the social reality we live in. If I made a post saying: ‘Look, I’m not poor, I’m still rich,’ they’d call me classless. I thought the story would die down, but these rumors have already reached Spain, and everyone thinks we’re struggling.”

Raphinha, meanwhile, is currently focusing on trying to recover from injury in time to feature again for Brazil at World Cup 2026.

Natália Rodrigues Belloli is a Brazilian model, social media influencer, and the wife of Barcelona and Brazil football star Raphinha.

The couple originally met in Porto Alegre, Brazil, in 2013 and were close friends for nearly eight years before starting a romantic relationship in 2021. They got engaged that same year, married in 2022, and share a son named Gael, born in 2023.
