Anyhow, Hermoso and Putellas later ended their relationship, the date of which is unknown. Jenni Hermoso had notably left FC Barcelona in 2017, whereas Putellas is a Barca mainstay, currently captaining the Catalan side. When Hermoso left Barca for PSG, Putellas chased back-t0-back success in Catalonia, winning two Ballon d’Or awards for her heroics. Hermoso has once said in an interview that her personal life has impacted her performances on the pitch, hinting at her relationship with Putellas. So, has Hermoso moved on? Let’s see.

Latest update on Hermoso’s relationship status

Jennifer Hermoso is currently single and she is immensely peaceful with the idea. “‘I have been in love, but not right now. ‘It’s one of the best things I’ve discovered: how to live with myself,” said Hermoso during her appearance on Spanish TV Show Planeta Calleja. The Spanish striker added, “My private life and my life as a football player have always been closely linked. If I had problems, my football was a disaster. It could be intense, especially if my heart was broken. Now fortunately I have found stability.”

Jenni Hermoso also added that it has been easy for her to come out as a gay female footballer. She observed that it is not easy for men’s soccer players to come out similarly as well. Hermoso’s ex, Alexia Putellas, on the other hand, seems to have found love again. Rumor mills have it that Putellas is seeing a Spanish model named Olga Rios. Hence, it is clear that the two Spanish superstars have moved on from courtship and are now busy focusing on their careers. Speaking of which, a gold medal on their Olympic debut will indeed be the duo’s top priority now.
