NEYMAR AND DIOGO DEFANTE SEAL PEACE AFTER EXCHANGE OF BARB ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Former Flamengo goalkeeper Bruno Fernandes has once again become the target of controversy due to his failure to pay child support for Bruninho, the son he had with Eliza Samudio, who was murdered on the orders of the former athlete.

This is because, in an interview with the newspaper O Tempo, Sônia Moura, mother of the former model, stated that Bruno has not made any payment of the pension amounts since September 2022 , accumulating almost three years of debt.

VALUE OF DEBTS

According to Sônia, the amount established by the court is equivalent to two monthly minimum wages: "Since then, there has been no payment of any kind," she said. The current bill, without monetary correction, is around R$90,000— a similar amount to the amount Bruno paid off after an online crowdfunding campaign in 2022.

At the time, the Mato Grosso do Sul Court ordered the arrest of Bruno , who had raised around R$24,000 via the internet and sold his car to pay off the debt, which led to the order being revoked.

Sônia also stated that, since the case returned to Rio de Janeiro, the state where she and Bruno currently reside, progress has been stagnant: "When I lived in Mato Grosso do Sul and the case was moved there, the case was moving forward, that's when Bruninho received the final settlement amount. Then the case came back here (Rio de Janeiro) and is stalled, I don't know why ," she stated.

BRUNO'S DEFENSE SPOKES OUT

In contact with O TEMPO, attorney Mariana Migliorini , who represents the goalkeeper, said she was unaware of the three-year delay and stated that her client currently earns about two minimum wages, which would prevent him from paying higher amounts. As for the slowness of the process, she stated that this is a matter for the Rio de Janeiro judiciary.

The cast of the soap opera Vale Tudo took advantage of the break from filming and attended the Rio 2025 Winter Festival, held last Saturday (12), in Rio de Janeiro. Among the highlights of the night were Bella Campos and Humberto Carrão , interpreters of Maria de Fátima and Afonso, who play a romantic couple in the plot. The actress drew attention by wearing a Brazilian National Team t-shirt with her character's iconic phrase: "rich in a poor man's body".

In addition to the duo, other names from the television world also attended the event: Paolla Oliveira , Taís Araújo, Pedro Waddington, Thiago Martins, Leandro Lima, Matheus Nachtergaele, and Malu Galli. The cast's presence reinforced the success and audience engagement of the remake of the 9pm soap opera, which has been making waves on social media and at cultural events in Rio.

HUMBERTO CARRÃO BECOMES A MEME ON THE INTERNET

Recently, Humberto Carrão became a meme when he posed alongside Bella Campos. One user commented on the "disproportionate difference" between the actor's and the actress's head size, which sparked a wave of funny montages featuring the actor's "enlarged head." The situation gained traction and was embraced with good humor by the castmates and fans of the soap opera.

Taís Araújo, who plays Raquel in the series and is Bella's mother, joined in the fun and advised: " He always has to take photos from further back , otherwise he'll look big-headed." The actress also joked that she has authority on the subject because she's married to Lázaro Ramos, who, according to her, also has a big head.

HUMOR AND UNITY OF THE CAST

Lázaro Ramos responded in a video: " What's this big-headed story, huh, sir? Carrão has a big head, a big head, you see. Mine's not that big!" He even compared his size to that of his friend Wagner Moura and added good-naturedly: "It's my intelligence that's big, guys."

Real Madrid defender Éder Militão and influencer Tainá Castro are about to formalize their union in Brazil with a grand celebration. The ceremony will take place on July 18th at the Tangará Palace in São Paulo and promises to be one of the most talked-about events of the year. Besides the wedding itself, the main attraction of the evening will be singer Gusttavo Lima , who agreed to participate in the party for a fee of R$1 million, a lower than usual amount, as a special gesture to the newlyweds.

Despite the grandeur of the event, the couple opted for a more intimate ceremony, with only 300 guests, including close friends and family. " We only wanted those who have been closely involved in our journey by our side ," commented Tainá.

The party will feature well-known soccer names, such as Vini Jr. and Rodrygo Goes , Éder's teammates at the Spanish club, who will be among the godparents. In total, there will be only four couples on each side of the altar.

BRIDE CHOOSES BLUE TO TRANSMIT SERENITY

For her wedding dress, Tainá chose Brazilian designer Marie Lafayette, known for dressing Michelle Bolsonaro at several official events. Despite living in Europe, she chose to emphasize Brazilian fashion. The palette chosen for the wedding is based on shades of blue , which, according to the bride herself, conveys "serenity, calm, and hope."

RINGS WORTH R$160,000 WILL BE TAKEN

The rings, valued at R$160,000 and designed by French fashion house Van Cleef & Arpels , will have an even more special symbolic role. They will be carried to the altar by Tainá's children with Flamengo defender Léo Pereira, and by Éder Militão's daughter with Karoline Lima, Léo's current wife. The exchange of rings promises to be one of the most emotional moments of the evening.
