“She’s positive! She’ll infect me by biting me!”
Confirming his split from Diakate thereafter, he wrote;

“But, because of speculation in the media today, I can confirm that sadly, after 20 years together, Lalla and I took the difficult decision to separate last year.
“We remain very close, and our main priorities have been to protect our children and our family’s private life.
“May God bless you.”
