Martinez and Torres initially began dating over three years prior when Torres played for Manchester City. However, they ended their relationship in May 2023, reportedly to concentrate on their respective careers.
In April 2024, reports emerged suggesting that Martinez was then in a relationship with Torres’ Spain teammate, Le Normand. This rumored romance was never officially confirmed.

Rekindled Romance: Martinez and Torres Fuel Reunion Rumors
In February, Torres and Martinez ignited rumors of a renewed relationship through activity on social media.
The pair refollowed each other on Instagram, and the Barcelona forward even liked a recent post by Martinez from the Maldives. This ‘like’ was later removed after fans noticed it.
Sources suggest Martinez developed feelings for Torres during his time at Manchester City. It’s noted that Torres had already been selected for the Spanish national team by Martinez’s father, then-national team manager Luis Enrique.
Luis Enrique, Martinez’s father, transitioned from managing the Spanish national team to coaching PSG.
Torres played for Manchester City from August 2020 to January 2022, making his debut for Spain shortly after joining the Premier League club.
Following Torres’ £55m transfer to Barcelona, they lived together in the city. Their relationship ended in May 2023 when Martinez reportedly initiated the breakup.
Martinez purportedly wished to focus on her equestrian career. She maintains a significant presence on Instagram with over 341,000 followers and has been involved in horse riding since childhood.
Le Normand’s Career and Background
Le Normand, originally from France and a former Brest player, obtained Spanish citizenship in 2023. He was a member of the Spanish national team that triumphed in the UEFA Nations League that same year.

Personal Tragedy and Perspective
Martinez and her father, Luis Enrique, endured a family tragedy in 2019 with the death of her sister, Xana, at the age of 9 due to bone cancer.
Enrique shared that Xana had battled osteosarcoma for ‘five intense months’ and described her as the ‘star that guides our family’.
In 2020, Martinez acknowledged a shift in her perspective on life following Xana’s death on August 29 of the previous year.
Speaking to Vanity Fair, Martinez stated: ‘I am very sensitive, but when I have to be strong, I can be.‘
She continued, ‘What I have experienced with my sister has changed how I view life.’
‘Previously, I would complain about minor issues, but now I pause and remind myself to live life fully and appreciate every moment, as you never know when it might end.’
