Adriana Lima splits from boyfriend Metin Hara

Los Angeles: Model Adriana Lima and boyfriend Metin Hara have called it quits after a year and a half of dating.

The former Victoria's Secret model, 37, and the Turkish writer, 36, were first spotted together in July 2017 on board a yacht in Bodrum, Turkey. The couple first sparked rumours that there was trouble in paradise in March, after Hara posted a cryptic message about his muse on Instagram. "She was the poem I always wanted to write," he wrote. The pair began dating in July 2017, a month after they met. 

Lima announced their romance with a now-deleted selfie on Instagram in November. "Exactly today 5 months ago I met/chose love. The beginning of a new beginning," she said. The model was previously linked to Baseball player Matt Harvey and football player Julian Edelman. She has kids Valentina, nine, and Sienna, six, with ex-husband Marko Jaric.
