José Eduardo Derbez and Paola Dalay confirm separation after seven years

Actor José Eduardo Derbez and influencer Paola Dalay have officially confirmed the end of their seven-year relationship. The couple, who share a daughter named Tessa, announced their separation via social media, stating that the decision had been made privately some time ago to allow them to process the change before making a public announcement.

Following the news, rumors of infidelity surfaced after Dalay was seen with César Romo, a footballer from the Kings League Américas, at the Mexico Grand Prix. Derbez has categorically denied these allegations, clarifying that the couple had actually separated approximately six months prior to the announcement and that the split was amicable. He emphasized that he maintains a respectful friendship with Dalay and intends to prioritize their daughter's well-being.

Derbez also addressed the online criticism directed at Dalay, calling for an end to the “cruel” social media attacks. He expressed a desire to meet Romo in the future to ensure a stable environment for his daughter. The two parents plan to coordinate legal matters, including custody and child support, through mutual agreement.
