Relationships, Husband and Children
From 1981 to 1982, she dated Argentine football player Diego Maradona. Talking about his relationship with Maradona, he said,
I think we were both in love. We were very young and both of us were very afraid of each other. This was a very innocent thing. It wasn’t the love of my life but it lasted me a long time, it was something serious. It ended because there was no way to maintain it due to the distance and the status of each one. At that time our communication was very good, Claudia was not alone and I went to her house a lot. I left him because we argued a lot. There are people who don’t like being told no to certain things. Furthermore, his intention was to return to Claudia, get married and have a family of his own.”
