Fact-Check  

Rumor Scanner team’s investigation revealed that the recent statement that went viral on the internet demanding comment on the reasons for Kaka’s ex-wife Caroline celico’s divorce is not hers. She himself told Rumor Scanner that she made no such comment.  

At the beginning of the investigation, Rumor Scanner tried to find the origin of the alleged statement. We did not find any news related to this on the main website of El Pais by searching various keywords.  

However, Rumor Scanner found proof of the publication of a report on the media’s Columbia branch website. On April 12, the report published under the title “Controversial reason why footballer Kaká’s ex-wife decided to divorce: “he was too perfect for me“” (translated from Spanish), however, it was removed from the website by “El Pais” authorities. We read this report from the Internet Archive. The report cites an X account (formerly Twitter) called SomosAnalistas as a source for Caroline’s alleged statement.

We found the controversial X post containing Caroline’s alleged statement from this X account.

This X post, which was published on April 12 at 8:12 am, has been viewed more than ten millions times so far. However, no source was mentioned for the said statement in this X post.

When contacted by Rumor Scanner about the said statement, Caroline Celico told Rumor Scanner via email, “I never said that I divorced him because he was to perfect.” 

Caroline said, “We saw someone wants to talk about this almost 10 years after the divorce. Thank God we worked well in our relationship these years, and we are both happy with our lives.”

Bottom Line

The ex-wife of former Brazilian footballer Kaka, Caroline Celico, is being claimed by various media on the internet, Caroline said in a statement about their separation, ‘Kaka never betrayed me, he treated me well, he gave me a wonderful family, but I was not happy, something was missing. The problem was, he was too perfect for me.’ According to some media, Caroline gave this statement to the Spanish media El Pais. But Rumor Scanner’s investigation revealed that a related news article was published on the website of the Colombia branch of El Pais, but it was later removed. Moreover, in the said news, the said claim was published on the basis of an X post, but in the discussed X post, no proof or source was mentioned in favor of the said claim. Instead, Caroline herself told Rumor Scanner Bangladesh that she made no such comment.

So, the claim that Kaka was divorced by his ex-wife for being perfect has been circulated in the media; Which is completely false.
