Former Everton midfielder Dele Alli has split up from his partner Cindy Kimberly after three years together, with the model having confirmed their break-up this week

Footballer Dele Alli has split up from his partner Cindy Kimberly after three years together. The former Premier League player had been supported by the model earlier this year but it’s now been revealed that they have separated.

Dele, now 29, who currently plays for Serie A team Como 1907, and Cindy, now 26, went public with their romance in 2022. It’s now been announced by the model that she’s no longer in a relationship with the former Everton midfielder.

There had been speculation that they had split up after it was noticed that she wasn’t following Dele on Instagram. Cindy – who has modelled for magazines like Playboy – is also said to have removed photos of him from her page.

Dele however continues to follow her on the platform. Cindy also still features in some posts on his account, including on celebrating his signing with his current football team in January, following his two year absence from the pitch.

The outlet Glam Set & Match (GSM) speculated in a post yesterday that their relationship looked to be “headed for the rocks” after three years. Cindy reacted in the comments section, with her confirming that they have broken up.

She announced that herself and Dele haven’t been together “for a little while”. Addressing rumours about their romance, she wrote in the comments section of the post this morning: “We’ve been broken up for a little while already.”

Although she appears to have removed photos of Dele from her own page, Cindy has kept up a post of herself seemingly sat in the stands at one of his games in Como, Italy, in March. She had been spotted there with him at the time.

She’s since been seen supporting Dele’s team too. More recently, Cindy was seen in the crowd at a match between Como and Torino at Giuseppe Sinigaglia Stadium on April 13, just two months before the news of their break-up.

Dele – who played for Tottenham Hotspur and England earlier in his career – signed with Como in January. It was announced at the time that he was on an 18-month contract, but with an option to extend that for an additional 12 months.

Head Coach Cesc Fàbregas shared his thoughts on the signing: “The club believes in Dele’s potential and is committed to helping him rediscover his best form. His experience and leadership qualities will undoubtedly benefit the squad.”

The signing came after two year absence from the pitch for Dele, which came following an injury in 2023. It was suggested in February that there was no rush to get the footballer back playing competitive games in the season.

Dele, who’s spoken about challenges he’s faced in his life off the pitch, made his comeback in March but, as reported at the time, he was sent off after 10 minutes when he received a red card. He later posted on Instagram: “2 years! Not necessarily how I planned it, but we keep moving.” It’s been reported that he hasn’t made another appearance for the club since then.

The series ran for three series between 1964 and 1967, with the first series being in black and white. Tina previously discussed being known for the show during an interview with The New York Times.

“I’m very grateful for all the things that have happened to me and the opportunities that I’ve had,” she admitted. I’d like to be known for other things.”

After co-star Dawn Wells died in 2020, Tina denied the long-time rumours that she resented the role of Ginger Grant by saying: “Never true – I loved doing my part, especially after they really started writing for my character, originally billed as a ‘Marilyn Monroe’ type of character.

“A different director took over and really started to write for my character. I really loved my character.” She also added she was grateful to the show’s loyal fans, especially during the coronavirus.

“We were part of the wonderful show that everyone loves and has been a great source of comfort, especially during these times. We brought a lot of joy to people and still do. This show is an escape from so many things going on. Fathers share it with their children now. I get letters all the time about that.”

Since Gilligan’s Island, she appeared in the likes of Love, American Style, Police Story, CHiPs, Rituals, and more. The star also took on roles in movies, such as The Good Guys and the Bad Guys, The Stepford Wives, Look What’s Happened to Rosemary’s Baby, and more.

She last appeared in a movie in 2019 for Tapestry and was last a guest star in 1999 for LA Heat. She has focused most of her attention on her daughter, Caprice Crane, as well as her grandkids.

“It’s amazing when you have a child, and I had so much fun—in view of the fact that I had such a strange childhood—so much fun raising her. Now, we have twins—a little boy and a little girl. They’re number one,” ” she said to Forbes.

Tina also worked as a learning leader in the public school system in New York City for the last 30 years.

The Golden Globe winner previously said: “When I walked into the classroom at a public school, I found it to be a very nourishing, important, emotional thing. The idea of helping a first and second grader to read was such a happy experience for me.”
