Formula One world champion Lando Norris has officially split from his long-term girlfriend, Portuguese supermodel Magui Corceiro, according to a reliable paddock insider. The British driver, aged 26, had been in an on-and-off relationship with Corceiro for several years, with her playing a pivotal role in his championship celebrations just two months ago in Abu Dhabi.
Viral Footage Sparks Speculation
Speculation about the breakup began circulating on Thursday when a video clip from pre-season testing in Bahrain went viral. In the TikTok footage, Norris appears to be overheard telling his F1 rival Carlos Sainz that he is 'a single man'. Sainz can be heard asking Norris, 'Are you and Magui good?' to which Norris seems to respond 'no', adding the single man comment. However, due to the audio quality, there was initial uncertainty about the exact words spoken.
Insider Confirmation
The split has now been confirmed by Formula One insider Kym Illman in a video posted to his Instagram account, which boasts an audience of 881,000 followers. Illman stated unequivocally that rumours of the breakup are 'definitely true'. During a round-up of the day's action in Bahrain, he remarked, 'Lando Norris was in fine form this morning, looking good. You may read this tomorrow... but he has broken up with his girlfriend Magui. You might have already heard rumours but it is definitely true.'
History of the Relationship
Norris and Corceiro, who previously dated footballer Joao Felix, initially parted ways in 2024 before reconciling last year. It now appears they have called it quits once again. According to reports, there have been tell-tale signs of trouble for a while, with the couple drifting apart after Norris's championship win last season. A significant hint emerged in Bahrain when Norris hosted a party to thank those who supported his title journey, and Corceiro was notably absent from the group photo, sparking immediate rumours.
Recent Moments Together
Just last December, Corceiro was seen breaking down in tears of joy after watching Norris clinch the world championship. In the following week, she gave an interview with TV Guia, reflecting on their public kiss in Abu Dhabi. She said, 'There's no rule for going public. I thought it made sense. I'm very happy, he's very happy, and that's what matters. At that moment I forgot the cameras were there. It was such an important moment that I didn't even remember that.'
Corceiro attended the post-victory celebrations alongside Norris's parents, Adam and Cisca, his brother Oliver, and the McLaren team. The group reportedly partied through the night until 6am, accumulating a bill of approximately £100,000 across various hotel bars.
Corceiro's Background
Hailing from Santarem in Portugal, Magui Corceiro has amassed a massive social media following, including 800,000 fans on TikTok. As an actress, she has appeared in Portuguese television dramas and has been featured in campaigns for brands like Intimissimi and Alo Yoga. She was also a contestant on Portugal's version of Dancing with the Stars in 2020. Additionally, Corceiro co-founded the eco-conscious swimwear brand Missus and has graced the pages of Vogue Portugal.
Norris's Previous Comments
In a past appearance in Vogue, Norris gushed about Corceiro, saying, 'We met a few years ago, but we were never really together until more recently.' When asked what was special about her, he replied, 'Everything. She's someone I can very much be myself with. Very down to earth and she lives quite a crazy life as well. It's nice when we can both just rent a boat for the day or go home together and chill.' He humorously added, 'The biggest thing I'm trying to change is to get her into golf. She hates golf.'
Despite these affectionate remarks, the relationship appears to have come to an end. Neither Norris nor Corceiro have officially confirmed the split on their personal channels, leaving fans to rely on insider reports and viral clues for now.
