She has been the support system for her son throughout and always stands for him. 

When her son faced a rape allegation in 2019, she stood strongly by his side as a rock and was confident that everything would be clarified and her son would be cleared.

The screams, cursing, the noise of bottles thrown on the ground, and Nadine crying were heard, after which Nadine hastily moved out of the apartment and asked guards to forbid his entry into the building.

Nadine and Tiago first made the headline in April 2020 after she went public with her relationship sharing a picture with then 23-year-old former footballer, model, and gamer Tiago Ramos with a caption that read, 

”The inexplicable cannot be explained, you just live it.” 

She also had her son’s blessing, who commented, “Be happy mom with a heart emoji.”

Adding to that, he said he sees it as his last because he is unsure if he has the strength of mind to deal with football anymore and that he will do everything possible to turn up well and do everything to win with his native and to realize his greatest dream since he was little.
