Marco Verratti's girlfriend is a Paris catwalk model who has previously featured on Sports Illustrated – but she met the Italy star while working as a waitress.
Jessica Aidi has been dating Verratti since the Paris St-Germain midfielder split up with long-term partner Laura Zazzara in 2019.
The pair were rumoured to be an item when they were spotted holding hands at the Monaco Grand Prix in May of that year, but they didn't go public with their romance until last year's Paris Fashion Week.
Though while Aidi is a renowned fashion model with over 350,000 Instagram followers, she is said to have first met Verratti while working as a waitress in a Parisian restaurant.
But over the past two years the 30-year-old's modelling career has taken off, jetting out to work in Milan as well as Paris for NEXT management.
She has also modelled swimwear on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine amongst other publications.
Before she began dating Verratti, Aidi was in a long-term relationship of her own.

Aidi will be cheering on her partner when Italy lock horns with Belgium on Friday night.
The Azzurri can secure a place in this summer's Euro 2020 semi-finals by getting the better of Roberto Martinez's men in Munich.
Verratti is expected to get the nod in Roberto Mancini's midfield alongside Jorginho and Nicolo Barella, having started their previous two matches against Wales and Austria.
