Countless fans have begged Cesc Fabregas for his autograph during his illustrious career, but Daniella Semaan is the only one that got the special signature that would remain forever in her heart.

Daniella Semaan married the Spanish midfielder who wore a black tuxedo for their wedding at Cliveden House in Berkshire, the ceremonial county of southern England on Tuesday (May 15). “Just married to this handsome man that I adore,” Semaan wrote after marrying the man she has been in a relationship with since 2011.

Who is Daniella Semaan, and How old is she?

Lebanese-born Daniella Semaan is 42 and she’s 12 years older than former Arsenal and Barcelona star, Cesc Fabregas. Semaan – a member of WAGs – is a mother of five (Leonardo, Lia, Capri, Joseph and Maria), three fathered by Fabregas and two from a previous relationship with London-based millionaire businessman, Elie Taktouk.

How did Semaan met Fabregas and how long have they been together?

There are two tales on how the couple met. According to Semaan, the pair swapped numbers after she went up to the Chelsea star at a Japanese restaurant Nozomi in London to ask for an autograph for her son Joseph. But her fellow WAGs at Barcelona explained that Semaan was followed by the popping eyes of every male diner, before boldly dropping a piece of paper on to the player’s table. Her mobile number was written on the paper!

Fabregas and Semaan have been together for seven years, and he proposed in December 2017.  The Spanish midfielder was formerly in a relationship with his childhood sweetheart Carla Garcia, who he had dated since he was 16. They parted ways after seven years together despite Garcia moving to London with her boyfriend when he was signed by Arsenal in 2003.

Semaan’s divorce settlement with her ex-husband Elie Taktouk that involved Fabregas

Semaan’s former husband, Elie Taktouk is a London-based millionaire businessman and they were both together for 13 years. In 2012, Taktouk claimed Fabregas stole his wife at the time they were still happily married and were trying for a third baby. The business man revealed he only found out about his wife’s affair with the former Arsenal star when he saw pictures of him on holiday in Italy with a ‘mystery lady’ in June 2011, and recognised her as his own wife.

Taktouk, who also originates from the Lebanon told Sun at the time: “I was completely numb and in shock for months. I was in denial but never wanted her back. The minute I saw those pictures I felt disgusted by her behaviour and just cut off all emotions.” On Fabregas, Elie Taktouk added that: “He is 25 and a fool. She went after him and she would leave him as soon as his money and fame run out. He is no David Beckham.” At a Court of Appeal hearing in London, Taktouk accused Semaan of cheating, and lying to a judge in their divorce case by claiming the footballer does not fund her lavish lifestyle. Semaan and Fabregas won the case and were granted £1.4million and the former couple’s Belgravia flat.
