Benjamin Mendy has been reportedly rumored to have married model Claudia Marino. But, are they still together and does he have any kids?

If there is one thing Mendy as well as other footballers should be careful of, is women. Since they are famous and earn whooping sums, many of these models, influencers, and even actresses they romantically end up with tend to use them as bait by wrongly accusing them of rape or assault to get some of their assets.

A typical example is Mendy himself, he was accused of rap by a 24-year-old woman and was locked behind bars which even ruined his football career. On July 14, 2023, Benjamin Mendy, formerly of Manchester City, stood trial for the charges of rape and attempted rape. After thoroughly examining evidence and witness testimonies, the Chester Crown Court jury declared Benjamin Mendy not guilty. This verdict relieves him and highlights the importance of a fair trial in delivering justice.

But, does Mendy have a wife or a girlfriend? Has he ever publicly dated anyone before and does he have any kids? Read on for more about his personal life.

Who is Benjamin Mendy married to?

Benjamin Mendy, the football virtuoso, was born on July 17, 1994, in the picturesque town of Longjumeau, nestled within the enchanting embrace of France. With a heritage that weaves together the vibrant tapestry of Ivorian roots, his journey is imbued with a rich mosaic of cultural influences, adding depth and nuance to his story.

From the tenderest of ages, Benjamin Mendy‘s path was guided by the loving presence of his parents, Monique Mendy, his mother, and Benjamin Mendy Sr., his father, who nurtured his dreams and kindled his inner fire.

However, it is crucial to clarify that while sharing a surname, Ferland Mendy is not a brother to Benjamin Mendy, adding an intriguing twist to their familial connection. Delving further into the layers of his family dynamics, the details surrounding his siblings remain elusive, veiled in a veil of mystery that evades the prying eyes of the media.

Fascinatingly, Benjamin Mendy‘s educational journey veered off the conventional path, deviating from the confines of formal institutions. Instead, he charted an alternative course, honing his skills within the revered walls of Le Havre’s esteemed youth academy.

This pivotal decision, made at a tender age, laid the foundation for his future success. While the precise details of his formal education remain shrouded, one can surmise that a tailored approach to holistic development accompanied his relentless pursuit of footballing excellence, potentially encompassing elements of homeschooling or personalized tutelage.

Benjamin Mendy‘s journey in the realm of professional football is a mesmerizing tale of triumph, challenges, and undeniable talent. From his humble beginnings at Le Havre to his noteworthy stints with Marseille, Monaco, and Manchester City, Mendy‘s path has been an enthralling blend of skill and perseverance.

So, who is Benjamin Mendy’s wife? The French footballer is currently assumed to be completely single. This means he is not married (hence has no wife) and he is not in any relationship (hence has no girlfriend).

Despite being single, he still has a close relationship with his family, especially with his mother, Monique Mendy. Throughout his struggle, Monique Mendy has been a steadfast source of inspiration and support.

However, he has been rumored to have dated Greek model Claudia Marino from 2018 to 2021. Other sources even claim they were married as they tagged her as his wife. Back in 2021, Mendy and Claudia were often seen vacating together. He even flew Claudia Marino from Athens to his home for a four-day romp in January 2021, per TheSunUk.

But lately, they’re alleged to have separated as they have not been seen together even before his rape trials.

Also, a woman named Yolanda Aguera has revealed she had an affair with the soccer player which even resulted in a child between them.

Does Benjamin Mendy have any children?

Professional footballer Benjamin Mendy is reported to be a father of one. He has a 3-year-old daughter from his affair with Yolanda Aguera.

In April 2023, it was reported that Benjamin Mendy had a secret love child from a Mediterranean holiday romance with Yolanda.

The child, now aged three, was conceived after he met former bank worker Yolanda, 41, at a trendy hotel in Barcelona and went with her to a party at a mutual friend’s plush apartment in the city.

Mendy’s baby mama has said that he was paying £350 a month towards the upkeep of their daughter – after she demanded a four-figure sum.

Mendy, 28, did not dispute paternity.

His £90,000 a week contract at Manchester City is said to expire in June and raises questions as to whether he will be able to pay the mortgage on his £4.8 million home in Cheshire.

He’s also been suspended without pay since September 2021 when he was charged with sex offences.

Benjamin Mendy has been found not guilty of rape and attempted rape by a jury at Chester Crown Court.

The former Manchester City player was accused of raping a 24-year-old woman in a bedroom at his home in Cheshire in October 2020.

He was also charged with the attempted rape of a 29-year-old woman at his home two years earlier.

Mendy, who had denied both charges, was found not guilty by the jury of six men and six women at Chester Crown Court. He said the encounters had been consensual.

Earlier this year the footballer had been found not guilty of sexual offenses against a number of women but the jury was unable to reach verdicts on the two charges.
