Jules Koundé is currently one of Europe’s top defenders. From a troubled boy who grew up without a father, the Frenchman has become a Barcelona star. In the football world, Koundé has long earned a reputation as a style icon, constantly surprising fans with his bold and diverse fashion choices.
Exclusive Welcome BonusIn early November, it was revealed that Koundé has been just as successful in his personal life as in his career. Here are all the details.
Jules Koundé’s Secret Wedding
According to French media reports, the Barcelona defender secretly got married. The footballer’s chosen one is Ukrainian model Yuliana Yassimova.
The outlet Lattaquant claims that the player met Yuliana in 2021 during Fashion Week. No one knew about Jules and Yuliana’s relationship because the couple kept it very private. Now it has come to light that they tied the knot without telling anyone.
Before his romance with Yuliana, there was absolutely no information about the Barcelona defender’s personal life. On social media, the Frenchman shared only professional achievements and work moments, occasionally posting travel photos.
Who Is Yuliana Yassimova?
Yuliana was born on June 27, 1988, in Kyiv. She is ten years older than the Barcelona defender and has 89,000 followers on social media.
The model has worked with well-known fashion and accessory brands and has appeared in major glossy magazines such as Vogue, Elle, and Harper’s Bazaar. Yassimova is one of the most sought-after top models in the world, frequently invited to fashion shows and advertising campaigns.
It’s quite possible that Yuliana has influenced Koundé’s unique sense of style. As mentioned earlier, in the football world, the Frenchman is considered an unofficial fashion icon. Interestingly, the footballer doesn’t use stylists—he chooses his own outfits, often drawing inspiration from other celebrities or even random people he sees on the street.
The main principle behind Koundé’s fashion choices is freedom. The Frenchman doesn’t set any limits for himself, which is why he might easily appear in public wearing a skirt, heels, or a pink T-shirt with floral embroidery. In one photoshoot, for example, he posed in clothing made from sheets of scribbled paper. He also enjoys changing hairstyles frequently.
Let’s see if Jules Koundé’s style changes now that he’s married—especially since his wife is not only a professional model with impeccable fashion sense and rich experience but also an absolute beauty.
