The actor, who appeared in ‘Malhação’ and ‘Travessia’, is the father of an eight-year-old girl and a Brazilian jiu-jitsu champion.
Ricardo Vianna appeared holding hands with Lexa on Saturday night (21). The actor was spotted with the singer at two events: first, at her concert in Rio de Janeiro, and then at the Unidos da Tijuca court, the school where the artist is drum queen. On social media, Ricardo filmed part of Lexa’s show and then posted a video of him dancing salsa with the singer in her dressing room. On stage, Lexa even said that she didn’t think she was single anymore (see the moment below).
Yesterday, it was a month since the singer announced her split from MC Guimê and, in the eyes of her fans on social media, the ‘line has moved on’. While Lexa enjoyed Saturday night (21) in the company of the actor, MC Guimê attended the recording of rapper Filipe Ret’s DVD at a concert hall in Barra da Tijuca.
