In a recent conversation with Jovana Foresti, creative director of FIG Cool Leather, on 23/8, Celico, now 38, expressed contentment with her appearance, career, and personal life. She acknowledges that she no longer has the sweet features of her youth, but a more mature and composed demeanor. |
The life of Caroline Celico 10 years after her divorce from Kaka has captivated public interest. According to Vogue, Celico and Kaka were once considered a golden couple, their relationship a Brazilian sports and entertainment "fairy tale." They began dating as teenagers, married in 2005, and had two children: Luca and Isabella.
Celico, a fashion design student, put her own aspirations on hold to support Kaka’s soccer career, moving with him to Italy, then Spain, back to Italy, and finally to the US. In 2015, she divorced Kaka despite his attempts to reconcile. The reason for their separation remains undisclosed. International media speculated that Kaka was "too perfect," but this was later debunked. Celico avoids mentioning her ex-husband in interviews to respect their privacy.

Celico often shares affectionate words for her partner. On August 10th, Brazil's Father's Day, she wrote, "The best dad in the world. Thank you for always being attentive, dedicated, protective, strong, and loving. Your children and I love you more every day." |
Celico now lives and works in Brazil with her new husband, entrepreneur Eduardo Scarpa Juliao. They went public with their relationship in 2016, a year after her divorce from Kaka (around the same time Kaka began dating Carolina Dias, 13 years his junior). Celico and Juliao married in 2021 and welcomed their son Rafael in May 2024.
