Spain Captain Alvaro Morata to Share Half His Earnings with Ex-Wife After Divorce
Spain’s national football team captain, Alvaro Morata, has agreed to part with half of his earnings following his divorce from Alice Campello. The couple, who had been married for seven years, announced their separation in August 2024 after a high-profile split that drew widespread attention in the sports world. Their marriage, which saw the birth of four children, came to a bitter end after a reported disagreement during Spain’s Euro 2024 victory celebrations.
Morata’s Euro 2024 Celebration Incident Escalated Divorce
The tipping point in Morata and Campello’s relationship came during Spain’s Euro 2024 victory. Following Spain’s triumphant win against England, tensions reportedly arose between the couple during the on-pitch celebrations.
Campello was allegedly upset that Morata’s parents were present during the celebration, wanting only herself, their children, and close friends to participate in the joyous moment. This disagreement seemingly marked the beginning of the end of their relationship, which had already been strained.
Despite the bitter end to their marriage, Morata and Campello are said to be working together to ensure the best for their children. The split was mutually agreed upon, and lawyers are currently handling the final divorce papers. Although their marriage is over, Morata emphasized that the pair maintain a “very good relationship” for the sake of their children, underscoring the importance of co-parenting amid the turmoil.
Morata’s Financial Commitment Amid Divorce
Morata, who recently signed with AC Milan after his two-year stint at Atletico Madrid, will reportedly hand over half of his earnings from their years together to Campello. The footballer’s decision reflects the growing trend of high-profile divorces, where financial settlements often involve significant sums, particularly when the individuals involved have amassed considerable wealth during the marriage. Morata’s agreement to give up half of his earnings is one of the more high-profile cases in recent times.
Despite the public split and financial settlement, Morata insists that the two are committed to raising their children in a harmonious environment, even as they go their separate ways. Both parties have expressed their desire to keep the details of the settlement private, out of respect for their family.
