LIKE A MODEL: Natalia - California girl who is 'more than a friend' with Neymar

  /  Freddy13

Hello, everyone! Welcome to All Football column LIKE A MODEL! Today we will show you Natalia Barulich, Neymar's close friend - or maybe 'more than a friend'.

Natalia Barulich (born January 13, 1992) is a California born Cuban-Croatian Model, Vocalist, and DJ from USA. She was famous for being the girlfriend of famous Columbian singer Maluma, but she broke up with him last year.  

Rumours suggest that the relationship between Neymar and model Natalia Barulich is more than that of just friends, although Natalia denied it.“Neymar is only my friend and the media makes up all these lies,” she said in an interview last year.

The beautiful model started out her career by working as a model for Guess Brand.

Furthermore, the 28-year-old model also worked with big publications like Maxim, Esquire, Cosmopolitan, and L’Officiel.

In 2012, the DJ also competed in the Miss California USA pageant. But she lost and not able to win the title. 

Neymar and Natalia's first meet was at one of the footballer’s previous birthday parties, at which Maluma performed. 

Since then they have maintained contact, with a growing number of clues suggesting that their relationship is more than that of just friends, such as Barulich’s heartfelt birthday message to Neymar on social media.

Further apparent evidence is the fact that the model decided to stay a few more days in Paris after the birthday celebrations, sharing images of the pair hanging out together. They often share the red rose emoticon in their social media correspondence, yet another clue that points to their relationship being a romantic one.
