Zlatan Ibrahimovic has never kept hidden the fact that he has always been in love with his wife, Helena Seger. However, his name got mentioned in an alleged dating rumour with Diletta Leotta who is an Italian TV presenter. The rumour started since they appeared on a TV commercial together and although the beautiful TV personality has since come out to deny the rumour, there are those who believe there was something between them. But there was?
Who is Diletta Leotta?
It was as Giulia Diletta Leotta that the TV presenter was born on 16 August 1991 in Catania, Sicily, Italy. She was brought up by her parents, Rori Leotta and Ofelia Castorina in her home country of Italy alongside a half-brother, Mirko Leotta who was birtehd from the first marriage of her mother. Her brother is a cosmetic surgeon.
Although not so much is known about her early education, it is known that she attended the Luiss University in Rome from where she graduated in 2015. While there, she decided to follow the footsteps of her father by studying law, but as fate would have it, she did not practice but ended up in the media world.
Careerwise, she rose to fame as the presenter of the Seria A program, DAZN. Other programs that she has presented include Serie B games on Sky Sport (Italy), and 105 Take Away on Radio 105 Network. More than that, she has been a part of some commercials.
How Diletta Leotta and Zlatan Ibrahimovich First Met
The first time that Ibrahimovic and Diletta caught the eyes of the public was when the duo appeared on an advert for Buddyfit – a training app together in 2020 during lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
As a result of her work, Diletta is known to always come in contact with football stars in the Seria A, but it is not known if, before the commercial, she has ever had anything to do with Zlatan who has been married for close to 2 decades.
Being Ambassadors of Buddyfit, they have now have some sort of professional relationship.
Did Leotta and Zlatan date each other?
Not long after Leotta and Zlatan appeared on the adverts together, they got tongues wagging after they were spotted on a date while Diletta was celebrating her 29th birthday. There were other claims that the legendary Milan star and the announcer continued to see each other even after the ads.
This got the Italian press to start speculating that Zlatan was cheating on his wife of almost two decades and with whom he had two kids. The entire report was damning as many were drawn to believing it as a result of the alleged friendship the two continued to maintain.
With the speculation getting too much, Diletta Leotta was forced to come out and clear the air that she was not in a relationship with the footballer. She claimed that there was nothing going on between them even though some reports went as far as describing them as the couple fo the summer.
On his part, Zlatan in his usual manner did not give any heed to the rumour neither did he come out to deny the claims.
She is in a relationship with Daniele Scardina
In 2019, the sexy TV presenter started her relationship with Italian professional boxer, Daniel Scardina. Although they seemed like a perfect couple, the relationship did not last a long time before it came to a rather abrupt end in July 2020. It was after this that rumours started surfacing that she was probably dating Zlatan.
The boxer continued to win back his woman after they parted ways, insisting she was the best gift life had given to him. He revealed that he did not betray her, and he wanted to have her back. At first, all efforts at getting her to take him back failed.
When asked why the relationship ended at first, Diletta Leotta did not give any reason, claiming that love does not necessarily need any reason before it can come to an end, although she described the boxer as a very good person.
Later around October 2020, it was reported that the two had found their paths back together and had decided to give the relationship yet another try.
