Jose Mourinho has been spotted without his wedding ring - sparking fears the final whistle has been blown on his marriage.

The dad of two was seen not wearing his wedding ring while working as a studio pundit for Sky Sports on Sunday during the crucial Liverpool v Manchester City Premier League clash.

A representative of the Portuguese manager said he forgot to wear his ring by mistake and "everything is fine" in his marriage with childhood sweetheart Matilde Faria, 54.

The Sun can reveal it is the second time in a month he has not worn the ring.

Last month - on October 10 - he was pictured walking close to his home in Chelsea without the ring.

Analysis of previous pictures of the controversial boss reveal he usually wears it whether on television or on the touchline.

Last December it was revealed Mourino, 56, had enjoyed a secret friendship with a blonde 14 years his junior.

The Sun told how he met Prue Carter-Robinson, 41, eight years ago, and photos showed her beaming next to him on a break in Qatar.

After the revelations, social media accounts that showed images of the duo were either deleted or made private.

Mourinho met wife Matilde - a humanitarian worker - when they were teenagers and they have been together for 30 years.

Jose, 56, was also missing from a family photo earlier this month as his daughter Matilde celebrated her 23rd birthday with her mum and brother Jose Jnr, 19, on a trip to see Niagara Falls.

The former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss has not been pictured out with his wife since they were seen visiting a London restaurant in February.

He has previously portrayed himself as a devoted family man, saying: the “most important thing [in my life] is my family and being a good father”.

A representative of Jose Mourinho said: "Everything is absolutely fine.
