The ex-Blaugrana Héctor Bellerín and the actress Carolina Yuste, first surprise couple of the summer

BarcelonaEvery summer there are surprise celebrity couples and this year the one that has opened the floodgates is the one formed by the footballer Héctor Bellerín, currently playing for Betis, and the actress Carolina Yuste, winner of the Gaudí award for her role in the film Saben aquell. According to an exclusive from the magazine Semana, the footballer and the actress are experiencing an intense love story, as demonstrated by images of the two walking in a park and sharing an "passionate kiss". The publication highlights that the romantic day began with a climbing session at a bouldering gym and continued with an outdoor picnic.

Although the sentimental link between them was unknown until now, a few months ago Bellerín and Yuste coincided at a public event that was particularly important for her. The actress has debuted as a writer with the novel Toda mi violencia es tuya and the footballer attended the presentation held in Seville in May. In fact, he was in charge of discussing the book with Yuste at the event, organized by the Centro Andaluz de las Letras. Weeks after that presentation, Bellerín included the actress's novel in a photo carousel he posted on Instagram.

Yuste, born in Badajoz and who learned Catalan to film Saben aquell, and Bellerín, from Barcelona, share political and social concerns, which they often discuss publicly. Each in their own way, they have positioned themselves for gender equality and feminism. The actress, winner of two Goya awards, has also advocated for the right to decent housing and has denounced real estate speculation, while the athlete has criticized homophobia in football.
