A 29-year-old Spanish OnlyFans model, who made headlines for going on holiday with Barcelona teen star Lamine Yamal, 17, has given her own side of the story.

OnlyFans model Fati Vazquez has denied any romantic involvement with 17-year-old Barcelona star Lamine Yamal, following speculation sparked by photos of the pair together on holiday in Italy.

Pictures published by Spanish outlet Lecturas showed Vazquez, 29, and Yamal on a jet ski and enjoying other luxurious activities on the island of Pantelleria, Sicily. This led to rumours of a relationship, despite the 12-year age gap.

Yamal quickly dismissed the rumours, posting a picture with Neymar on Instagram with the caption: "Single and happy, this is Brazil!"

Vazquez has now spoken out, denying any financial motivation for spending time with the young footballer.

"I want to make it clear that I do not have and have never had a financial interest in this story," she told Spanish television program Y ahora Sonsoles as quoted by Dailymail.

"I've been an independent woman since I was 18 and working on social media as a content creator for over 10 years, long before Lamine was a public figure."

She also revealed she was surprised to learn another young woman had been with Yamal at the same location just hours before her arrival. "This information took me by surprise," she stated.

Vazquez Defends Relationship with Yamal

Vazquez further addressed insinuations about her interest in Yamal, saying, "It has been insinuated that if Lamine was not a public figure, I would not have noticed him. But it's also fair to say that, if I didn't have the trajectory and visibility I have, he probably wouldn't have noticed me either."

Gossip expert Javi de Hoyos also claimed to have spoken with Yamal, who categorically denied any relationship with Vazquez.

Vazquez previously revealed she received death threats and accusations of being a "paedophile" following the publication of the photos.

She stated that Yamal was not alone on the trip, but with other Barcelona team-mates. Lecturas had previously reported the pair were enjoying a close friendship and celebrating the season's successes.

This incident follows another controversy involving Yamal and a different 29-year-old adult star, Claudia Bavel.

Yamal reportedly declined a meeting with Bavel, stating he wasn't interested, a conversation aired on the Spanish TV show TardeAR. Bavel subsequently responded on social media, offering her perspective on the situation.
