Former Tottenham and England star Dele Alli has split with his girlfriend Cindy Kimberly, the model has reportedly confirmed on social media.
News of the couple’s split first circulated on Instagram after Kimberly unfollowed the football star on the social media app.
Shortly after she unfollowed Alli, GSM posted to reveal that the pair had decided to call quits on their relationship.
Now, Kimberly has reportedly reached out to the outlet to confirm their split, unveiling that the two have in fact been broken up for some time.
‘We’ve been separate for a little while already,’ she confirmed.
The couple went public with their relationship in June 2022, and as recently as January, Kimberly, who works as a full-time model – having once graced the cover of Sports Illustrated – could be seen posing with Alli as he completed his move to Como.

Kimberly had been a rock for the footballer, who in 2023 opened up on his traumatic childhood, which included being sexually abused as young as the age of six.
The model also stood by him as he revealed his addiction to sleeping pills and the mental health issues he has had to deal with, in an incredibly raw interview with Gary Neville.
But now, it seems their relationship is over. Cindy is believed to have wiped all pictures of the pair together, including one taken of them in Como as recently as April, from her Instagram.
On the pitch, meanwhile, Alli will be hoping that the upcoming season will prove more fruitful than the last.
The ex-Spurs man, who currently plays his football at Italian side Como – for whom he signed in January – has endured a difficult few years both on and off the pitch.
The 29-year-old hadn’t played a professional game for two years before he was afforded the chance to train with the Serie A club.
Cesc Fabregas, the Como manager, then opted to bring Alli on board officially, handing him his debut against AC Milan in March.
However, his return did not go to plan – lasting only 10 minutes – as he was red-carded and Como went on to lose to the Rossoneri. Alli has not been seen on the grass since.

Last month, Fabregas, who lambasted Alli for his ‘grave mistake’ during his only appearance for Como, insisted that he needs to ‘keep working’ in a bid to resurrect his career.
‘Dele Alli needs to keep working,’ said Fabregas. ‘He had his chance in Milan, but was sent off and then got injured. When the right time comes, it just comes.’
However, Fabregas was not quite as forgiving following Alli’s debut back in March, showing little sympathy for the former Everton man.
‘Dele Alli is a player who can score goals,’ Fabregas told DAZN. ‘He perhaps didn’t deserve this opportunity because he has only been working with us for two weeks and has a lot to improve.
‘It is a grave mistake, one that we should not see from a player of his experience.
‘It was a clear red card, there’s nothing to be said about that, he left the team down to 10 men during a crucial moment when we were pushing for 2-2.
‘That is the most negative thing about this evening, but we keep going.’
