Lionel Messi dated an Argentinean model named Macarena Lemos for a short period back in 2006 around the time of the World Cup. For those of you who are not great at math, that was about four or five years ago. It would be safe to assume that the supermodel and the millionaire soccer player have easily moved on from the split. That may be the case, but Messi’s mother has apparently not gotten over it.
In a recent interview that was translated by Goal.com and shared with us by Dirty Tackle, Lemos talked about Messi’s mother following her around a store with a frying pan in hand and yelling insults at her.
“She was following me and taking photos until I turned around and asked her what was going on,” Lemos explained. “That’s when she started insulting me. What was she doing there in the electronics section, with a frying pan in her hand? She was following me with a telephone and a frying pan.
“I have never came out and said whether I had slept with her son. I was 14 and he was 18 – and I didn’t reveal anything about our relationship. She treated me like I was nothing, as if I were hanging from her son’s ribs. She seems to think I said something to a magazine, but I never did. They are confused.”
Apparently you don’t mess with Mrs. Messi’s baby. That’s not to say that Lemos did, but she had better watch out now that she’s on Messi’s mom’s radar. Lionel can continue focusing on finding weird places to hide from fans and figuring out ways to keep weird reporters away from him, but his ex-girlfriend needs to make sure she avoids his mom.
