Why did Gianinna Maradona divorce Sergio Aguero? Diego Maradona once called Manchester City player a ‘wimp’
Diego Maradona is no more. The Argentine football legend lost his life at 60 from a heart attack two weeks after leaving the hospital where he underwent surgery on a blood clot in his brain. As the world mourns his death, did you know the player has five children?
Married to Claudia Villafañe from 1984 to 2003, he had two daughters with her — Dalma Nerea (born April 1987) and Gianinna Dinorah (born May 1989). Did you know Gianinna went on to marry Sergio Aguero? The two first met in 2008 when he was playing for Spanish club Atletico Madrid, three years before he joined Manchester City. The chance meeting blossomed into romance and they soon got hitched in a private ceremony.
One year after marriage, she gave birth to their son Benjamin in Madrid. However, the couple decided to part ways in 2012. After their divorce, Maradona was furious with Aguero as his pictures with Argentinian singer Karina Tejeda were splashed in the media. Calling Aguero a “wimp”, Maradona told him on social media, “It makes me very sad that having so many people around you, not one of them can tell you that your son comes first.”
