Ana Lidia Martins, the wife of new Arsenal signing Bruno Guimaraes, has captured attention with glamorous social media posts as her husband prepares for his Premier League debut with the Gunners.
Bruno Guimaraes' move to Arsenal
The former Newcastle United captain completed a £75million move to Arsenal this summer as Mikel Arteta's side seek to retain the Premier League title. Guimaraes spent four-and-a-half years with Newcastle, becoming a vital player and helping end the club's trophy drought in the 2025 Carabao Cup.
The 28-year-old has already added more silverware since signing for Arsenal, as he started the team's 3-0 win over Manchester City in the Community Shield last weekend. Guimaraes will now be focused on making his league debut against Coventry City on Friday night.
Ana Lidia Martins' support for her husband
Ana showed her support for Bruno during the World Cup as she donned a stunning Brazil crop top ahead of the country's second group game against Haiti. The midfielder openly shared his thoughts about his wife's post, leaving three comments, including a series of fiery heart and drooling emojis. In one comment, Bruno said: “You are so beautiful! I love you forever.” In a further comment, he added: “I love you more than anything.”
However, the tournament ultimately ended in anguish for Guimaraes, who missed an early penalty as Brazil were eliminated by Norway in the round of 16. Ana responded by rallying around her husband and posted a lengthy, heartfelt post after the country's World Cup campaign came to an end.
Addressing Bruno in the latter half of her post, Ana said: “To my husband, all I can say is how much I admire your courage, your dedication, and your grounded nature. You are the greatest pride of my life!
“Thank you for letting me experience such unforgettable moments over these past few weeks. It was beautiful to see you shine. Thank you for being the rock of our family. Thank you for your huge heart—as pure as a child's. I know it hurts a lot. But the rain always stops eventually... and God's will remains good, perfect, and pleasing.”
Relationship and personal background
Bruno and Ana began their relationship in 2020 and tied the knot three years later in an eye-catching ceremony underneath the famous Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro. The couple also have two young sons together.
Ana is a qualified nutritionist after gaining her degree from the Federal University of Parana in Curitiba, Brazil. She has travelled the world by following her partner's football career, having previously lived in Lyon before heading to England with Bruno in 2022.
A couple of months on from her husband's World Cup heartache, Ana was pictured with the partners of other Arsenal stars shortly after Bruno's move to the Gunners had been completed. As the club played Borussia Dortmund in a pre-season game, she was snapped alongside Isabella Rousso and Gabrielle Figueiredo, who are married to Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Magalhaes, respectively.
Ana will hope Bruno makes his league debut for the Gunners as the team begin their title defence against Coventry. The Brazilian will want to establish himself as a regular under Arteta, despite the competition he faces in central midfield.
