# Erika Januza and Arlindinho breakup and paternity suit > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/erika-januza-arlindinho-breakup > Updated: 2026-08-06T22:15:04.000Z. Sources: 39. Developments: 4. Following a video showing singer Arlindinho leaving a swing house with two women on 10 July 2026, actress Erika Januza and Arlindinho ended their eight-month relationship. On 29 July, Januza appeared on GNT’s ‘Saia Justa,’ describing her life as ‘chaos’ and stating she does not blame herself for the emotional pain. Arlindinho issued a public apology and visited Januza’s home to apologize in person. The breakup drew significant celebrity support, including messages from Viviane Araújo and psychological advice from Mariana Ramos. In early August, Januza shared photos from a trip to the waterfalls in Chapada dos Veadeiros, noting that ‘nature has a power, an inexplicable presence of God’ and expressing a need for the experience. While continuing her work in the TV Globo telenovela ‘A Nobreza do Amor,’ she has since reflected on the ‘law of return’ via a text attributed to Chico Xavier, emphasizing that the universe ensures actions eventually return to the practitioner. Januza has expressed feelings of liberation and gratitude for the clarity brought by the situation. Parallel to the breakup, a paternity suit remains pending in Rio’s 2ª Vara de Família, in which a woman alleges Arlindinho is the father of a child born 23 April 2026 and has requested a court-supervised DNA test. ## Claims - Erika Januza ended her relationship with Arlindinho.
