Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) striker Kylian Mbappé is one of the most talked about football players, including things off the field such as girlfriend relationships. After reportedly breaking up with actress Emma Smet, he is now said to be in a relationship with famous transgender model Ines Rau.
According to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sports, Mbappé and Ines Rau have been dating each other for several months and were reportedly seen together during the Cannes Film Festival this year. Afterwards, the rumored couple was spotted on a yacht.
Although there is no official statement whether Mbappé and Ines Rau are a couple, the rumors have sparked immense interest among PSG fans. Who is Ines?
Born in 1990 in Paris to Algerian parents, Ines Rau is known as the first transgender model to appear on the cover of Playboy magazine. At 16, she underwent sex reassignment surgery, but kept it a secret until she was 24 before going public with her story.
In 2018, she published the autobiographical book entitled "Woman", where she describes the transformation from man to woman. "I feel that my soul is finally free, as if the padlock that kept me locked away for so long has been opened. This time, I am fully a woman," she wrote.
