In a rare and open conversation, football superstar Kylian Mbappé offered fans a glimpse into his personal life during an interview with Mouloud Achour on Clique. The Real Madrid striker, known for his skill on the pitch, spoke candidly about his experiences with love, fame, and the complexities of relationships.
When asked if he has ever confessed love to someone, the 25-year-old Frenchman responded with sincerity.
“Yes, to my mother, my father, my little brother. I try to give them this affection every day. I have no problem revealing my feelings,” he shared.
On romantic love, however, Mbappé admitted, “Yes, in the past, I have already been in love, and I hope that I will be again. But currently, no.”
This heartfelt response reignited speculation about his romantic history, including rumors of a past relationship with transgender model and Playboy icon Ines Rau.
The rumors about Mbappé and Rau surfaced in 2022 after photos of the footballer relaxing on a yacht with a mystery woman went viral. While the images sparked widespread discussion, neither Mbappé nor Rau ever confirmed the relationship.
Speculation about a breakup in December of the same year added another layer of intrigue, though insiders suggested it may have been a case of mistaken identity.

In the interview, Mbappé reflected on the difficulties of dating while being one of the most recognizable faces in the world.
“Imagine, if with everything you live, there is someone next to you. The person next to me is not necessarily ready to live all this stuff,” he explained.
Mbappé revealed how the pressures of his high-profile career could complicate personal relationships, often making him feel more like a counselor than a partner.
“I’m not going to be her boyfriend; I’m going to be her psychologist, because she’s going to think, ‘What is this mentally ill life?’” he said with striking honesty.
While he has been linked to other public figures, such as Belgian model Stephanie Rose Bertram, Mbappé remains focused on his career and close family ties.
For now, the Les Bleus forward seems to have chosen a path of self-reflection and dedication to his craft. Despite the constant media attention, Mbappé appears grounded, embracing the love and support of his family while navigating the challenges of fame.
As he continues to dominate on the pitch, fans will no doubt keep speculating about the romantic life of one of football’s most enigmatic stars. For Mbappé, however, love—both familial and romantic—remains a deeply personal journey, unfolding on his own terms
