Vinicius Tobias, a former player for Real Madrid, has recently captured headlines not for his achievements on the pitch but for a surprising turn of events in his personal life involving his ex-partner.

The saga began this past February when the current Shakhtar Donetsk player announced he was expecting a baby girl with his ex-partner, Ingrid Lima. In anticipation of the arrival, Vinicius even got a tattoo of the baby’s name, “Maite,” before her birth.

However, a subsequent DNA test revealed that the former Real Madrid player is not the child’s father. This shocking discovery emerged just days before Maite was born, which is why Vinicius was absent at the time of her birth.

“As everyone already knows, Vinicius and I haven’t been together for a while. During that time apart, I had a relationship with someone else. We decided to do a DNA test, and Maite is not Vinicius’s daughter,” Ingrid Lima explained.

Despite the unexpected twist, Vinicius Tobias has demonstrated his generosity by offering 2,000 euros per month to cover the baby’s expenses. 

“I asked Vinicius not to attend the birth and not to post anything about it until the test was done. We discussed everything amicably. I explained what had happened, and I wish him all the best in the world,” added Lima, who is also an influencer.
