Pep Guardiola and Cristina Serra, one of the most stable couples in the world of football, have decided to end their relationship after more than three decades together. The news, advanced by The Newspaper and revealed in the program And now Sonsoles by Lorena Vázquez, from the team Mamarazzisconfirms that the separation took place last December. Sources close to Guardiola have confirmed to The Vanguard that the separation is now effective and that the couple has communicated it to those closest to them.
According to Vázquez, the couple had been contemplating this decision for several months. “It is absolutely true, the couple lives separately,” explained the journalist, who highlighted that, although the legal details are unknown, both already reside in different addresses.
Guardiola's difficult personal and professional moment
A separation marked by distance and mutual respect
The relationship between Guardiola and Serra began in 1994 and was consolidated with an intimate wedding in 2014. During these years, the couple had three children: María, 24 years old, who has followed a career as influencer; Màrius, 22 years old, businessman in Dubai; and Valentina, 17, who is focused on her studies.
Since 2019, Cristina had stopped living in Manchester, settling between Barcelona and London to manage her fashion business. Meanwhile, the Manchester City coach remained in the English city due to professional commitments. Despite this physical separation, the couple maintained a close relationship and shared special family moments. This lifestyle, closer to the concept of living apart together, allowed both to maintain their independence, although they finally decided to go their separate ways.

-According to close sources, the separation has occurred amicably and without conflict, and that the distancing is due to a natural evolution. “It is a cordial and affectionate relationship, there are no third parties,” warns Lorena Vázquez in 'And now Sonsoles'. This Christmas, with the decision made, they were seen together in Barcelona enjoying an outing to the theater with one of their daughters. “It is a separation without drama, a closing of a stage that reflects maturity,” said Vázquez during his television appearance.
The breakup comes at a delicate time for Guardiola, both personally and professionally. His team, Manchester City, is having a season below expectations, and the Catalan coach has shown signs of emotional exhaustion after some defeats.

Despite this difficult moment, both Guardiola and Serra seem determined to maintain a respectful relationship focused on the well-being of their children. A separation that marks the end of an era for a couple who always stayed away from the media spotlight and who knew how to combine professional and family success for more than 30 years.
