Brazilian football icon Kaka has broken his silence on his 2015 divorce after a rumoured claim made by his ex-wife.
Kaka, who married his childhood sweetheart Caroline Celico in 2005 while playing for AC Milan, recently addressed the split during a podcast interview reported by Spanish outlet Sport.
The couple, who share a son and daughter, ended their marriage after a decade together.
Reports surfaced last week suggesting that Celico attributed the breakup to Kaka being “too perfect” for her – however, Celico has debunked the reports.
Reacting, Kaka, 41, refuted this claim during the podcast, stating that he had done everything possible to prevent the separation.

“I was living in the United States, and she asked to go back to Brazil.
“Her words were, ‘I want to go back to Brazil, I want to live there and I don’t want to be married anymore’.”
