Rebeca Andrade had an impressive performance at the Paris Olympics, winning four medals – one gold, two silver and one bronze. Her success was widely celebrated in Brazil, where she had already become a celebrity by winning two medals in Tokyo. Now she is the most successful Brazilian Olympian of all time, and this opens up new horizons for her.
The public is very interested in knowing more about the sportswoman's personal life, so there have been a lot of rumors about her relationship status lately. After these had died down a bit, she decided to do something cheeky in a recent interview. In the interview, Rebeca Andrade decided to publicly pose a rather difficult challenge to the presenters. In fact, when they heard about it, they were not in the mood to actually complete it.

Recently, Rebeca Andrade gave an interview to the Brazilian broadcaster Bom Dia Sao Paulo. She spoke to them about her impressive Paris campaign. But after the interview, the gymnast cheekily challenged the presenters. After the questions were over, she asked to pass on a message to the presenters of the show, Rodrigo Bocardi and Sabina Simonato. She said: “Hello, Rodrigo. Hello, Sabina. I want to invite you to go to the gym and train with me. I want to see what gymnastics you can do.” After being shown the news, the presenters jokingly hid their faces from the camera.

Finally, Bocardi asked Simonato: “Should we go and embarrass ourselves?” She replied that he should leave. But the male reporter insisted that they both accept the challenge and take a camera crew with them to film. However, when it turned out that Rebeca Andrade trains in Flamengo and not in Sao Paulo, where her studio is located, they changed their minds.
“I have to stay here, I have to follow the transport options in São Paulo. Simonato said jokingly: 'You go there, we'll call you, like an anchorage. You're there, doing your mischief, and I'll stay here with the train, the subway, the bus.'” Finally, Bocardi concluded the topic by saying that the only exercise he does is stand for three hours for the show, and then sent his greetings to Rebeca Andrade. It was a funny moment for the audience. This came after the gymnast's personal life had really been under the microscope in the last few weeks after the Olympics.

Rebeca Andrade is rumored to be in a relationship with the captain of the Brazilian volleyball team, Gabi Guimaraes. The rumors about their relationship intensified when a photo of her sitting on his lap appeared. In fact, he even uploaded it to his Instagram account, congratulating her and other athletes on their performances at the Paris Games.
Rebeca Andrade has spoken out and said that although there is a deep friendship and spiritual connection between them, there is nothing romantic. In fact, she has been dating someone else for several years.
Luiz Cleiton, an engineer and successful bodybuilder, is her boyfriend. They announced their relationship in 2022. He became popular after becoming Mr. Rio that same year. They have posted pictures of each other on social media on several occasions and seem to be quite serious about each other. But Rebeca Andrade rarely talks about him in interviews as she wants to keep her personal and professional life separate. This has obviously served her well as she continues to be successful in her career.
