It's safe to say Chelsea forward Joao Felix and his model ex-girlfriend Margarida Corceiro have been involved in plenty of drama off the pitch over the last few years.

The Portuguese actress and the Blues star, who moved to Stamford Bridge from Atletico Madrid over the summer and turns 25 today (Sunday, November 10), had been together since 2019. But they split up in 2023, not long after hitting the headlines when it was alleged Corceiro had cheated on Felix with Tottenham star Pedro Porro when he played for Sporting CP.

Felix's ex was forced to come out and deny the rumours she had kissed Porro in a nightclub, despite video evidence suggesting they had been getting more than a little cosy together. And the 22-year-old blonde beauty, famous for her appearance on the Portuguese version of Dancing with the Stars, was not happy.

She told Sports Mole: "If I wanted to be kissing someone, in an intimate moment, it would not be in Lust (a club), much less in the VIP area with that little balcony and in view of the entire nightclub.

"I also don't understand why those gentlemen who took the initiative to record that video and report it in such a nice way didn't remember to record me talking and hugging the other people who were there, the other guys, the players, because if we want to talk about Magui Corceiro always with the players and that this is a scene, there was a lot of material."

Margarida Corceiro insisted she and Pedro Porro, now of Tottenham Hotspur, were just "very good friends"

She added: "It's getting out of control and it's leaving me in a very boring position, and Joao too. I met Porro a few months ago unexpectedly at a group dinner.

"Since then we have had a great time, we are very good friends, I love him, he is incredible and the people who know him know him very well."

But, Corceiro later announced on social media that she and Felix had split up. And it led to her then being spotted with Formula One star Lando Norris last year at the Monaco Grand Prix, before they seemingly embarked on a rollercoaster romance.

However, a year after they were spotted in Monaco together and rumoured to be in a relationship with a series of sightings, Norris confirmed this past summer that he was not seeing anyone, stating: "I don’t have a girlfriend."

A source also confirmed their split. The source said: "Lando and Margarida had a fun time together and hung out a lot. But it wasn’t working out so they cooled off. He’s free and single and just wants to focus on his sport."

Felix meanwhile is starting to find his feet during his second spell at Stamford Bridge, having netted twice before the break as Maresca's heavily rotated squad thrashed Armenian side FC Noah by eight goals in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday.

Those two goals took his tally to five in 10 matches this season, surpassing his total from 20 appearances during his initial stint with the Blues in the 2022-23 season. The Portuguese international has found the back of the net four times in Europe, along with one league goal in the 6-2 victory over Wolves in August.

But he has only clocked up 117 minutes under Maresca in the Premier League and will be hoping he gets the chance to add to that time and his goal tally when the Blues face Arsenal on Sunday.
