Overview
- Bárbara Evans wrote in comments on a social post that the claim is false and that she has never met Neymar in person.
- The rumor traces back to a 2010 note in the Retratos da Vida column of Jornal Extra that said they had 'ficado' three times.
- A 2011 RedeTV report quoted Evans as describing their connection then as friendship and said she had seen Neymar only once.
- The topic reappeared after a recent video or social post listed Evans among Neymar’s alleged exes, prompting her to respond directly.
- The episode shows how decades‑old, lightly sourced gossip can be amplified again on social platforms and can push people to issue public denials even when no new evidence emerges.
