- German announced split from his wife of almost eight years three months ago
- Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Daniela Jehle married in Barcelona back in 2015

Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Ande ter Stegen has gone public with his new relationship just three months after announcing the split from his wife of nearly eight years.
The first of two photos shared on the German’s Instagram account showed what appeared to be his hand held by another and resting on the knee of a person in a floral dress, with the accompanying caption ‘junts’, which means ‘together in Catalan’.
A second image featured a smiling woman sitting by the sea and looking out to the sunset.
According to Bild, the shotstopper’s new flame is rumoured to be Ona Sellares. She also appeared to confirm the romance by posting images from their Athens getaway and sharing Ter Stegen’s story.
Additionally, after German’s 2-1 Nations League defeat by Portugal earlier this month – Ter Stegen’s first International minutes since returning from a ruptured patella tendon – she posted a photo of herself wearing a Germany shirt at the Allianz Arena.
Little is known about Sellares, who has almost 19,000 followers on Instagram.
It comes just three months after the 33-year-old announced that he and wife Daniela are separating after almost eight years of marriage.
The Blaugrana star began dating Daniela Jehle back in 2012, when Ter Stegen was still playing for Borussia Monchengladbach.
Jehle followed Ter Stegen to Barcelona when he joined the club in in 2014 in a £9.7 million move.
The couple married on May 15 in 2017 with a small ceremony near Barcelona, before having a church wedding in Tuscany.
Ter Stegen and Jehle have two children together.
The couple confirmed their split in a joint statement on social media.
‘After careful consideration, Dani and I have decided to go our separate ways,’ the joint statement read.
‘This decision was not an easy one, as you can imagine, but we both believe it is the best step for us.
‘Our joint focus is on doing what is best for our children, ensuring they continue to have a loving and stable environment.
‘We remain committed to working together as parents and treating each other with respect and appreciation as we always have.
‘During this personal time, we kindly ask for your understanding and for respecting our privacy – especially that of our children.’
