Amanda Martins released a series of statements on Instagram accusing her estranged husband, Roma defender Wesley, of multiple infidelities during their marriage, including encounters with sex workers, Il Fatto Quotidiano reported on October 26, 2026. The allegations from the former partner of the Brazilian professional footballer outline a prolonged breakdown in their relationship, which included periods when the couple was expecting a child.
“Wesley betrayed me more than once, including with prostitutes,” Martins stated in her social media posts, as detailed by La Gazzetta dello Sport. The public statements from Martins detailed personal discoveries made through access to the player’s mobile device, where she reported finding photographs and video recordings from various encounters. Corriere Adriatico noted that the accusations extend to behavior occurring during her pregnancy, marking a significant escalation in public scrutiny surrounding the defender’s private life while based in Rome.
The public disclosures followed circulating gossip regarding the player’s off-field conduct. Martins explained that she chose to address the situation directly after keeping quiet through previous difficulties. According to her statements in La Gazzetta dello Sport, the evidence was gathered directly from personal inspection of the device rather than through third-party rumors.

“I know not through rumors or confidences, but because I saw it with my own eyes,” Martins stated, describing how she preserved digital files from the phone onto her own device. Corriere Adriatico added that the disclosures also detailed public incidents in local establishments, where Martins alleged the player solicited contact information from staff members and patrons while intoxicated, a period during which she also reported experiencing acute anxiety.
The controversy surrounding the Roma player quickly drew attention from media outlets in Brazil, given his status as a national team defender, according to Corriere dello Sport. Speculation on social media linked the player to Brazilian influencer Lara Juca, prompting a direct denial from Juca on Instagram. Responding to a user comment on her profile, Juca rejected the rumors, stating, “The day I lower myself to that role you can bury me. And now stop disturbing me,” as reported by Corriere dello Sport.
Concurrently, online discussion was sparked by a separate social media post from Wesley showing a quantity of cash and a luxury watch, which drew broad commentary across platforms like TikTok and various sports publications including Il Messaggero. Despite the public attention, the club has not issued a formal statement, though reports in Italian and Brazilian sports media indicate the player has been advised to maintain a low profile on social media channels.
Amid the ongoing media attention, Wesley has continued his club commitments with Roma, focusing on training schedules under manager Gian Piero Gasperini. Corriere dello Sport reported that the player utilized a scheduled rest day to train and spend time with his daughter, attempting to isolate himself from the off-field disruption. The athlete has limited comments on his social media accounts and removed existing photographs following the public statements made by Martins, who remains in Italy while their separation continues.
