Vinicius Junior has apologised to Virginia Fonseca after appearing in the headlines over alleged infidelity.

“I want to publicly apologize, with all my heart, because I have understood that real relationships only exist when there is respect, trust and transparency,” Vinicius wrote on Instagram – where he has 55.4 million followers.

Although not an “official couple,” as Vinicius describes it, Virginia confirmed to G1 that their relationship ended after she saw screenshots of conversations between him and another model.

“I don't mind admitting that I was careless, that I didn't respond in the best way and that I let her down,” Vinicius admitted.

The 25-year-old shared: “We all go through moments that make us reflect and grow.

I recently found myself in a situation that made me look at myself and realize that my behaviors were not representative of the person I wanted to be, nor the type of relationships I wanted to build.”

In his apology, Vinicius acknowledged Fonseca's efforts in the relationship: “Since we met, she has come to Madrid three times to see me, leaving her work, her schedule and her personal life behind just to be with me. I met an admirable mother, a wonderful companion.”

“Virginia is a wonderful woman, an exemplary mother, and someone for whom I have much love and respect,” he praised.

The Real Madrid star concluded his message with a hope to “start over” : “No lies, no arguments, no masks. With lots of love, care and respect.”

As of this writing, Virginia – a businesswoman and public figure, mother of three – has yet to respond to the public apology.

Vinicius and Virginia's relationship began in September 2025. The breakup came less than a month later, shortly after private messages between Vini and another model were leaked.

According to Leo Dias , these messages coincided with the time when Virginia was at Vinicius's house in Madrid .

It's been a tough week for Vinicius. Along with his apology, his house in Madrid was also set on fire.

Luckily, Vinicius was not at home because he was training with the Brazilian team, to play friendly matches with South Korea (6pm on October 10) and Japan (5:30pm on October 14).
