Relationship Trouble After a Disappointing Season - Manchester United Star Cancels Wedding Celebration

Stephen Oladehinde 09:15 - 21.06.2025

Matthijs de Ligt is facing challenges both on and off the field. The Manchester United defender cancelled his wedding celebration with his wife Annekee at the last minute, sparking speculation about their relationship.

Dutch international Matthijs de Ligt joined Manchester United last year after three seasons at Juventus and two at Bayern Munich.

However, he struggled to perform, and his underwhelming displays, along with the team's overall poor performance, contributed to the club's worst finish since 1974.

They announced plans for a larger celebration during the first weekend of June this year, but cancelled it just days prior due to family reasons.

According to Voetbal24, via Sport, the cancellation may be due to a marital crisis. Instead of honeymooning with his wife, the footballer travelled to Barbados with teammate Joshua Zirkzee.

Speculation is rife in the Dutch media about whether the 25-year-old model and De Ligt are still together.
