Former Chelsea forward and legend, Didier Drogba has revealed his ten-year marriage is over after appearing in an intimate video in bed with a mystery woman.

The Chelsea legend, 42, met Lalla Diakate in the late 1990s in Paris and they tied the knot in 2011.

Steve Goodman reported in The Sun that former Ivory Coast striker Drogba had previously maintained a discreet private life as he tried to shield his loved ones from the limelight.

The photos and clips soon went viral on social media.

And they showed the bare-chested Blues idol in bed with a nearly-naked young woman.

In the film, which a representative claimed had been hacked, she playfully sinks her teeth into Drogba’s shoulder as he screams in pain.

He then speaks to her in French about being bitten and appears to say: “She’s positive! She’ll infect me by biting me!”

Drogba wrote on Instagram: “I’m not in the habit of discussing my private life.

“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.
