Ivorian star Nicolas Pepe's romantic relationship with adult film star Teanna Trump has sparked wild reactions among football fans.
After several months of rumours, the couple made their first public appearance together as the footballer's sister, Corinne Pepe, shared an image of them at dinner on Instagram.
Some fans were surprised to learn about the former Arsenal player's relationship with the award-winning adult film star.
Others suggested that Pepe's choice of partner reflects how some athletes have "poor" taste in women.
Nicolas Pepe and Teanna's relationship had remained under the radar despite rumours gaining traction when she was spotted at Pépé's unveiling at his new club, Villarreal.
She was also seen at the Estadio de la Cerámica during Villarreal's home draw against Atlético Madrid on matchday one.
Pepe and Teanna, whose real name is Keanna Nichele Jones, have not officially confirmed their relationship, but a selfie from a night out appears to have fueled the rumours.

It’s truly surprising that they’re a real couple, going against all odds and expectations.

Absolutely love can be unpredictable and often finds its way when we least expect it. It’s one of those forces that does not always follow logic but still feels so right when it happens.

Love has its own mysterious ways of bringing people together in ways we might not always understand.
