Lamine Yamar's partner Inés García refutes fake social‑media statement

Spanish footballer Lamine Yamar's girlfriend, influencer Inés García Santos, has denied a fabricated post that appeared on X (formerly Twitter) claiming she was upset by online criticism. García explained that the message was a case of identity theft; she does not have an X account and only uses Instagram and TikTok for official communication. She posted on Instagram Stories to clarify that the alleged statement never left her mouth and warned followers about false content.

The controversy began after Yamar helped Spain win the 2026 World Cup, prompting intense media scrutiny of his personal life. Rumors spread that García had ended a previous relationship to date the teenager, and trolls used old photos and comments to allege overlap. García responded with a supportive post celebrating her relationship with Yamar, urging fans to ignore the baseless gossip and reinforcing that any claims of a statement on X are false.
