Wanda Nara has landed a new job after her split from Mauro Icardi

Mauro Icardi's ex-WAG Wanda Nara has landed a new job on television after splitting from the Argentine footballer.

The couple endured a very public split last year as their eight-year marriage ended in dramatic fashion, featuring the burning of furniture and Icardi missing training to confront the mother of his children. After an attempt to rescue their relationship failed, the couple finally called it quits in September.

Five months on from Nara confirming their marriage was over, she has now announced that she has been handed a new presenting gig on Argentina version of Masterchef.

Nara made the news official on social media this week as she wrote: "I’m the new presenter of Masterchef Argentina and I’m so happy to continue to grow at the Channel Family."

She also went on to add: "To all the great team, thank you for trusting me. I can’t wait to start with my colleagues that I admire so much."

It will not be the first time that she has appeared on TV screens in South America, either, having already been a judge on Argentina's version of The Masked Singer.

The new job comes as Nara and Icardi move on with their lives following their tumultuous split last year, which saw the couple burn furniture outside their Lake Como home.

Icardi also flew to Argentina to confront Nara, who also acted as his agent during their relationship, to confront her for appearing in her boyfriend's music video.

His decision to skip Paris Saint-Germain training to fly to Argentina ultimately led to his departure from the French giants before the end of the summer, joining Galatasaray on a season-long loan. He has since scored nine goals and added six assists in 13 appearances.

Nara and Icardi's relationship also began in controversial circumstances as they first got together when the former was still married to Maxi Lopez, a team-mate of Icardi's at Sampdoria.

They tied the knot themselves in 2014 and went on to have two daughters together. Nara's outspoken approach to being Icardi's agent also landed him in hot water with the supporters of his clubs, most notably during his time at Inter Milan.
