Estelle Cruyff details breakdown of marriage to Ruud Gullit

Estelle Cruyff, niece of football legend Johan Cruyff, has spoken publicly about the breakdown of her marriage to former Dutch football star Ruud Gullit. Cruyff revealed that the relationship was marred by repeated infidelity throughout their marriage.

In a television appearance on ‘Het Waren 2 Fantastische Dagen’, Cruyff described a traumatic moment on August 10, 2010, when she caught Gullit with another woman in their living room. She noted that she arrived home with their children, and both her daughter and son witnessed the incident.

Cruyff stated that while Gullit frequently denied the affairs, her trust in him diminished over time until it was completely lost. The couple married in 2000 and have two children, Joelle and Maxim. Following the dissolution of their marriage, Cruyff was later linked to kickboxer Badr Hari, though she clarified that the relationship was not the cause of her split from Gullit.
