Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé has been making headlines for his high-profile relationship with Spanish actress Ester Expósito, just as France prepares for its first World Cup match. However, rumors of a romantic getaway with Expósito days before the match have sparked outrage among fans. Did Mbappé really take off with his girlfriend on a luxurious trip during the World Cup? The answer is no.
Fake News Spreads on Social Media
A fan page on X posted photos of Mbappé with Expósito, claiming, "Scandal in France because on the very same day the World Cup kicked off, Kylian Mbappé went OFF AGAIN to spend the day with Ester Expósito in Ibiza… She's got him hypnotized, the Gallic media assure." However, these pictures were from a vacation the couple took a month earlier, before the World Cup began. The post has since been debunked by many fans.
Fan Reactions
While some fans expressed anger, others criticized the spread of misinformation. One fan commented, "She's got him head over heels, he's totally smitten now." Another said, "They should leave him out for not being fully focused on his national team." A third fan noted, "What the media makes up has crossed the limit of lies. They had a day off, and he went to Spain where he lives."
Despite the controversy, Mbappé and Expósito have remained silent on the matter. As France gears up for its first match against Senegal, all eyes are on Mbappé, who has emphasized his responsibility as captain of the national team.
