Footballer Ruben Dias posted a story on Instagram, where the athlete pointed out that he usually doesn’t talk about his personal life online, but it happens when a certain event draws a line. “When my 85-year-old grandfather asks me if I’ve cheated on my girlfriend because he’s seen it on the news over and over again, that’s where I draw the line between what’s acceptable and what’s not,” he said, before saying the split was completely private and that Maya deserved respect in that regard.After the couple removed the photos from their social media handles, their relationship status became a widely discussed topic on the internet. “The reasons why we broke up are private and ours, and we both worked on it very maturely,” he said, believing that it was wrong to lie to people and that it was also inappropriate to portray an image against some clickbait. Shattering the constant trolls, she completed the note: “Respect me, respect Maya, and always understand that you don’t have to betray each other to end a relationship.”
