A few days ago, on the F1 Nation Podcast, Natalie Pinkham said, “The point is, any kind of association with Taylor Swift is enough to pique the interest of a younger generation of fans.” And perhaps that’s exactly what has piqued our interest to go down the memory lane of Formula 1’s bad boy Fernando Alonso‘s dating history. While association with the 12-time-grammy winner was a fantasy, the life of the Spanish driver has been a juicy one.
List of women Fernando Alonso has dated
Fernando has had a fair share of relationships in the almost 42 years of his existence. Let us begin by enumerating the ones that made it to the next level. Nando was married to singer Raquel del Rosario during his championship-winning years for five years before announcing separation. He then moved on to banker and Miss Switzerland runner-up Xenia Tchoumitcheva. After the pair called it quits in 2011, Nando was with the Russian model, Dasha Kapustina, the pair was spotted together in 2012 Malaysian GP.

But the matador was looking to be married again as he fell in love with Journalist Lara Alvarez, who he was even engaged to in 2014, but this romance didn’t last long. He is also said to have dated Viki Odintcova, who apparently was linked to Fernando’s ex-teammate Lewis Hamilton. And the Spanish driver then went on to spend half a decade with Italian lingerie model Linda Morselli. And the most recent one was Andrea Schlager.
While the man has still not settled down and started a family, he spoke of his ultimate goal of having a family which has not manifested because of his extreme schedule as a racer. The New York Times quoted him as saying, “The legacy I will leave will be the love for this sport, so great that I continue to practice it for many years, remaining at a very high level. It was one of the goals I set for myself when I returned.” [Translated using Google] While we thought the deal was sealed with Andrea, he announced their separation a few weeks ago.
Fernando Alonso’s ex-girlfriend Andrea Schlager
Fernando Alonso recently broke up with his reporter girlfriend Andrea Schlager. The matador took to his Instagram to announce his separation from the TV presenter. The couple who began dating after meeting in the paddock in 2022 vouched to continue spending time together and having each other’s best interests at heart.
Fernando shared a picture with Andrea and captioned it, “We wanted to tell you that our relationship as a couple [has] ended. We have been lucky enough to share a fantastic time together, and it will continue to be so, but on a different form of affection.” While the ex-lady love hasn’t really made a statement or spoken about the separation, she once posted a cryptic message amidst all the ‘Taylando’ rumors. But like the Taylor rumors, there is no way of confirming that either, just our conjectures.

Is it Taylor Swift? We have seen the painful trajectory of Miss Americana going through heartbreaks and writing songs about it. While she has always written about her love interests after the separation, she perhaps foreshadowed her link-up with Fernando Alonso when she titled her song, “Anti-Hero” or probably sang “I can make the ‘bad guys’ good for a weekend.” Nando has called himself a bad boy and even an anti-hero of the sport.
And that is where we saw a cosmic connection, even if it was only a fragment of our imagination. The rumor was enjoyed by the F1 circus thoroughly while it lasted, but it never found any ground because, in the end, it was just a spicy anonymous tip to a gossip column.
