The news of the divorce between Héctor Herrera and Shantal Mayo, after 15 years of marriage, caused a great stir. Although the couple did not reveal the reasons for their separation, rumors resurfaced about a possible infidelity on the part of the player, recalling a scandal he was involved in a few years ago during a training camp with the Mexican National Team. Several players, including Herrera, were pointed out for participating in a party days before an important match, affecting their image. Although it was not confirmed if this incident was the cause of their marital problems, speculation pointed in that direction.
After the announcement of the divorce, social media users noticed that Shantal Mayo began to follow Igor Lichnovsky, a player from Club América who also announced his separation recently. This gesture sparked rumors about a possible relationship between the two, although some believe it could simply be interest in his content and nothing more. The coincidence of the separations and Shantal's social media follow of Lichnovsky has fueled speculation and generated debate in Mexican football.
Igor Lichnovsky had also been romantically linked to Mexican actress Cassandra Sánchez-Navarro in the past, although neither of them has confirmed a formal relationship. So far, there are no statements from either party regarding the rumors connecting Shantal Mayo with Igor Lichnovsky, and both have kept away from the controversy. This new chapter in the lives of Héctor Herrera and Shantal Mayo has sparked great media interest and highlighted the attention that football players and their personal lives receive.
