FC Barcelona star Pablo Gavi is concentrating on his recovery after spending months away from the field due to a severe injury, even as romance rumors with Princess Leonor of Spain have resurfaced. While Gavi gears up for the 2026 World Cup, speculation about his connection to the princess has again captured public attention.
Are the Romance Rumors True?
No, nothing has been confirmed by either Pablo Gavi or Princess Leonor. The rumors began during the 2022 Qatar World Cup when King Felipe VI visited the Spanish dressing room and asked Gavi to sign a small jersey. Although unconfirmed, media and fans believed the jersey belonged to Princess Leonor. Two years later, at Spain's Euro 2024 victory celebrations at Zarzuela Palace, Princess Leonor and Gavi were seen shaking hands, fueling further speculation. However, Gavi has been in a relationship with social media influencer Ana Pelayo since 2022, leading to rumors that he "rejected" the princess, though nothing has been officially confirmed.
Gavi's Focus on the World Cup
Despite the ongoing rumors, Gavi remains focused on his recovery and the upcoming World Cup. In a recent interview with Mundo Deportivo, he stated, "I'm better than ever. I feel better than ever... The season has been very complicated because of the injury, but I came back and the recovery was really tough." As the World Cup 2026 approaches, Gavi is determined to return to top form and represent Spain on the global stage.
