Van der Vaart Splits with Wife Empty Van der Vaart Splits with Wife

Post by RedOranje Thu Jan 03, 2013 8:00 am

According to reports, former Real Madrid and Tottenham star Rafael van der Vaart and wife Sylvie are calling it quits after the Dutch player admitted to hitting her during a private New Year’s Eve bash.

The 29-year-old player told German newspaper Bild: “It was very foolish of me. I’m an idiot. I’m very sorry. It should never have happened.”

Van der Vaart continued: “I am very sad that it did not work with us. We are the culprits. Sylvie alone and I have to answer for it, that our marriage does not work.”

Sylvie, a television personality and model, announced that she forgave van der Vaart but later confirmed that they had officially separated.

“We have unfortunately drifted apart over time. It was a gradual process that was not easy to spot,” Sylvie told Bild. “Even though it sounds weird, we still love and respect each other.”

Van der Vaart left Tottenham in the summer to play for German club Hamburg reportedly to be closer to his family. The split comes a week after after the couple posted a picture on Twitter of themselves with son Damian during their Christmas holiday.

Currently undergoing treatment for a thigh muscle injury, van der Vaart joined his Hamburg teammates to fly off to Abu Dhabi for a winter break training break before the restart of the Bundesliga season on Jan. 19. Club managing director Frank Arnesen pledged his support for the embroiled playmaker.

“We will support Rafa, protect him and give him time. He loves football, which will help him,” Arnesen told Bild.de. “He is a strong character.”

“He will bring a high level of performance. I’m there for him when he needs me.”

I don't know why he hit her, but it's certainly a shock to me.

Well, it says that it was a New Year's party, so he was probably really drunk when he did that. He also apologized and his wife forgave him which could mean that it's uncharacteristic of him.

yea he was probably high as a kite. still, it's surprising since they portrayed the "perfect couple" for so long. i just hope it doesn't negatively affect his performance

That sucks. Pretty much the main reason he went back to that mediocre team was because of her. This frees him up for a move back to the Prem. Sign him up 'Arry. :coffee:

Crazy! we as outsiders can only imagine what they were going through in their relationship leading up to this, but yeah, hitting a woman is totally over the top..unless she was trying to kill him or something and he did it out of self defense.

Either way, i'm not too surprised. Great player, not so great personality I guess. I hate to judge him right away before we know exactly what happened and to what extent.

With that said, alcohol is no excuse.. yeah people get drunk all the time, but the people who are violent when they're drunk are usually pretty horrible people even sober. They just have an excuse to let it all go because of booze in the system. Responsible adults with any class whatsoever have no reason to act like that because they're drunk..

I just read an account of the event in an analog newspaper at my parents, and there it was said that VDV was upstairs in a room sleeping (prolly due to a bit too much drink) and Sylvie wanted to talk to him and woke him up when he suddenly shoved her away and she fell down. Dunno if that is what actually happened, but it would sound as if he prolly was half asleep and it wasn't a really conscious hit. *shrugs*

I'll take you back, Rafa.

No but I wouldn't. AVB doesn't care for him and we're supposedly getting Holtby in the summer anyway. Still, classless move, awful stuff. This is what happens when you leave Spurs. Sh*t like this.

Hopefully he keeps his money and his kid.

Other than that pointless getting into this while knowing nothing of the situation.

He should never start a game for this club again, at any level.

Agreed. Not even his own testimonial.
