Bruna Biancardi is a Brazilian influencer from São Paulo and the wife of Neymar, the former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain star who plays for Santos in 2026. She revealed in June 2025 that the couple were already "married on paper", and as of November 2026 they have two daughters, Mavie and Mel, with a third girl, Mariah, on the way.

Bruna was born on 15 April 1994, so she is 32 years old. Their story has had public ups and downs: a cheating scandal in 2023, a split announced less than two months after their first daughter was born, then a reconciliation in 2024. In this article, OhMyFootball goes through what is actually known about Bruna Biancardi, with dates and sources, and leaves out the guessed measurements and invented details that other profiles repeat. Everything here is up to date as of November 2026.

Who is Neymar's wife?

Neymar's wife is Bruna Biancardi. The two have been together, on and off, since 2021, and Bruna says they are married in a civil ceremony. In June 2025, a follower on Instagram asked her when they would get married, and she replied that they were already married on paper, as reported by Metrópoles and CNN Brasil. The date and place of that civil marriage have not been made public, and Neymar has not commented on it directly, although he calls Bruna his wife. ISTOÉ reported, citing unnamed sources, that a judge married them at their home in Santos, but the couple have never confirmed those details.

There has been no church wedding or big wedding party, as far as is publicly known. During the Rio de Janeiro Carnival parades in February 2026, according to the Brazilian site Jogada10, Bruna said they were married at the registry office and that she would still like a religious ceremony one day, without giving a date. In March 2025 a columnist had reported that a wedding was being planned for 2026, and Neymar answered that "nothing is set yet", while calling Bruna his wife. She also calls him her husband: in the description of a Christmas episode of her cooking show, posted on YouTube on 23 December 2025, she wrote that she had invited "my husband and our daughters" to cook with her.

How did Bruna Biancardi and Neymar meet?

Bruna has said that a friend of Neymar, Leo Venditto, whom she calls "Leozito", introduced them. "Leozito was the cupid," she wrote in May 2023 when fans asked her about it on Instagram. Bruna has also said on a podcast in 2026 that her parents did not like the idea at first: her mother told her she did not want her daughter with a footballer.

Neymar and Bruna were first photographed together in August 2021, on a boat trip that outlets placed off Ibiza or Formentera. They kept quiet about the rumours for months, and Neymar went public with the relationship on 15 January 2022, when he posted a photo of the two of them in his Instagram Stories. They split briefly in August 2022, when Bruna confirmed the break-up and denied rumours that Neymar had cheated, and they were back together by January 2023.

The 2023 split and the reconciliation

In April 2023, Neymar and Bruna announced that they were expecting their first child. Two months later, in June 2023, an influencer publicly claimed that she had spent a night with Neymar, and on 21 June he posted a long public apology to Bruna on Instagram, admitting he had made mistakes. Bruna's younger sister, Bianca, criticised Neymar openly on social media at the time.

Their daughter Mavie was born on 6 October 2023 in São Paulo, while Neymar was playing for Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia. On 28 November 2023, less than two months later, Bruna announced in her Instagram Stories that she and Neymar were no longer a couple. She said they would raise Mavie together and asked people to stop linking her name to stories about his private life.

The separation did not last. The couple were photographed together with Mavie during 2024, and in September and October 2024 they posted photos of trips together, including to Dubai, which Goal described as confirmation that they were back together. On Christmas Day 2024, they announced that Bruna was pregnant with their second daughter.

Bruna Biancardi and Neymar's children

Bruna and Neymar have two daughters together, and a third is expected:

  • Mavie, born on 6 October 2023 in São Paulo. Bruna has explained that the name comes from the French "ma vie", meaning "my life".
  • Mel, born on 5 July 2025. "Mel" means honey in Portuguese.
  • Mariah, expected at the end of 2026. The couple announced on 15 June 2026 that Bruna was pregnant with a third girl, and the name came out on 3 September 2026, when Neymar shared a note from Bruna signed "mum, Mavie, Mel and Mariah". Brazilian media have reported that the baby is due in December 2026. As of early November 2026, no birth has been announced.

Bruna announced Mel's arrival on her own Instagram account with this post, writing that "our Mel has arrived, to complete and sweeten our lives even more":

The third pregnancy was announced with a family video, posted on Bruna's official YouTube channel on 15 June 2026 under the title "Estamos grávidos!" ("We're pregnant!"). Neymar was in the United States for the World Cup at the time, and Brazilian media reported that the gender reveal took place there.

In June 2026, as reported by Metrópoles, Bruna said the third pregnancy was planned, and joked that next year they would "try for a boy".

Neymar's other children: Davi Lucca and Helena

Bruna's daughters are not Neymar's only children. He has a son, Davi Lucca, born on 24 August 2011, from his relationship with Carolina Dantas, and a daughter, Helena, born in 2024, whose mother is the model Amanda Kimberlly. With Mariah, Neymar will be a father of five. Bruna has shared outings with Davi Lucca and his mother, Carolina, on social media, and Davi Lucca appears in the June 2026 video announcing Bruna's third pregnancy.

Bruna Biancardi age and birthday

Bruna Biancardi was born on 15 April 1994 in São Paulo, Brazil. That makes her 32 years old as of November 2026, two years younger than Neymar, who was born on 5 February 1992. Her star sign, for those who search it, is Aries.

Bruna Biancardi height and weight

Bruna Biancardi has never given her height publicly, as far as we could find. Biography websites list figures between about 1.65 m and 1.70 m (5 ft 5 in to 5 ft 7 in), and an earlier version of this article gave 5 ft 7 in, but none of those numbers comes from her, so treat them as estimates. The same goes for the weights that circulate online, which we have removed. For comparison, Neymar is listed at 1.75 m (5 ft 9 in). She has dark brown hair, usually worn shoulder length, and photos show several small tattoos on her arms.

Bruna Biancardi origin, parents and sister

Bruna is Brazilian, born and raised in São Paulo. According to ISTOÉ, her father, Edson Ribeiro, founded the surfwear brand Long Island in 1988, and her mother is Telma Fonseca. Bruna told Marie Claire, as quoted by ISTOÉ, that her father "has had a clothing brand, Long Island, for more than 30 years". Biancardi is an Italian surname, but we found no statement from Bruna about Italian ancestry, so we cannot say where that side of the family comes from.

She has one sister, Bianca Biancardi, who is younger than her. Bianca is a nutritionist, and CNN Brasil gave her age as 30 in 2026. She became known in June 2023 for defending Bruna against Neymar online. In 2026 she married Bruno Hernandes and had her first child, a boy named Filippo, according to Caras.

In 2026 she works full time as a digital influencer. Besides her Instagram, she runs a YouTube channel with about 396,000 subscribers in November 2026, where she posts family vlogs and her cooking show "Bru na Cozinha", in which she cooks with guests. During the 2026 World Cup she posted a series called "Bru na Copa" from the United States. She also shoots advertising campaigns for brands, as her vlogs show. In June 2026, as quoted by Metrópoles, she said: "I have my own work, I pay my team, I have salaries to pay and I earn my own money."

Bruna Biancardi net worth

Bruna Biancardi's net worth is not publicly known, and we prefer not to publish a guessed figure. Her income comes from her influencer work and her YouTube channel.

Neymar's fortune is not public either, but his earnings are tracked. Forbes ranked him seventh among the world's highest-paid athletes of 2024, with estimated earnings of $108 million, most of it from his Al-Hilal contract. That deal ended in January 2025, and his salary at Santos has not been officially disclosed.

Her accounts also put her at the centre of public rows.

The exchange was widely covered by the Brazilian press, including Estado de Minas.
