His mother went to the stadium after 7 years

He led Romania to qualify for the Euro 2024 on November 18, 2023, after winning a match against Israel. 

Romania secured its position in the Euro by finishing at the top of the group and being unbeaten with six wins and four draws. 

For this achievement, Edward was named the 2023 Romania Coach of the Year by Gezeta Sporturilor. 

Edward's mother, Valeria Iordanescu, kept her life out of the spotlight for as long as she could. 

She made very few appearances at events throughout her husband's career as a player or manager. 

The last time she was spotted by the media was at the stadium during the European Championship in 2016 when her husband was the manager of the national team. 

However, when her son achieved the biggest accomplishment of his career, she couldn’t help but be present in the stadium to celebrate the moment with her son. 

Valeria was present at the stadium after 7 years to watch a match of Romania Vs. Switzerland after Romania secured its position in the Euro. 

After the match, she said the experiences she had with her child were greater than with her husband. 

Her children give her much more joy according to experiences and feelings which she is very thankful for. 

She also revealed that she cried when her son's team qualified for Euro as it's different for the child and there are other feelings. 

She said she can't say she is proud but she is definitely happy. 

She said she felt like the match was not over and wished the boys to perform the same way they performed that night at the Euro as well. 

She would be happy to have a team of that level, starting that night, and wished them what she had been wishing for them until then and she will continue to pray for them. 

His father, Anghel, could not be more proud of his son. 

Edward's brother, Andrei, revealed that their father came out in front and was emotional all evening. 

Andrei further revealed that their father had more emotions than when he was a coach.

Scandle with ex-girlfriend

Talking about his previous relationship, he was once famous for dating a famous singer and television personality, Delia Matache. 

They met through mutual friends during parties and while hanging out with the gang. They began dating in 2004 but ended their relationship in 2006. 

There were rumors that the reason behind their break up was Edward's cheating. 

But Edward cleared the rumor and said there was never any question of getting married from his side. 

He could not marry a woman with such a schedule as he would never see her again. 

He further revealed that he thought of a future with her and couldn’t help but think that they would barely get to see each other because of their respective careers. 

However, in 2010, Edward and Delia were dragged into a scandal when their s*x tape was published by a magazine. 

The tape was recorded in 2006. Both Edward and Delia handled it with maturity. Delia said she didn’t see anything abnormal in those videos. 

She added they were living under the same roof and were simply having fun, and it was all a joke. 

She is not ashamed to be a woman and she is sure of her feminity and has no reason to be upset and bothered. 

She also defended Edward and said that he would never release the tape.
