Matthijs de Ligt ends marriage over wife’s esoteric interests

Unexpected events have occurred in the personal life of Netherlands national team and Manchester United defender Matthijs de Ligt.

Idman.biz, citing Dutch media, reports that the footballer has ended his marriage with Annekee, whom he met years ago while playing for Ajax.

The reason is quite unusual. Reportedly, de Ligt could no longer tolerate his wife's obsession with esotericism.

Fed up with Annekee's hobbies, the footballer ultimately felt compelled to take this step. His wife frequently shared photos on social media related to tarot cards, astrology, and energy topics, and often spoke about “inner flows.”

Last season, the 25-year-old Dutch player scored 2 goals in 29 matches for Manchester United in the Premier League. His contract with the club runs until the summer of 2029.
