Former Real Madrid and Spain star Iker Casillas has slammed attempts to 'violate or undermine my honour' after amid recent declarations by former porn star Claudia Bavel. Claudia Bavel, who made her X-rated film debut as a teenager and now earns around £17,000 a month from Only Fans, has spoken out over her alleged relationship with the 2010 World Cup winner in recent days. The 28-year-old gave an interview with Spanish TV channel Telecinco programme De Viernes detailing their reported relationship last week.

She claimed 43-year-old Casillas had cold-shouldered her since paparazzi photos of them together in Barcelona were published by glossy Spanish magazine Diez Minutos last week, while refuting speculation she had tipped off photographers. Casillas, who retired from professional football in August 2020 after suffering a heart attack in training with Porto, reportedly told the magazine the photos were 'very enlightening' and 'spectacular' but refused to confirm whether he and the model were an item.

During her television interview, Bavel had declared 'If you ask me what Iker was like as a lover I would say better as a footballer.'. Former Real Madrid and Spain star Iker Casillas has slammed attempts to 'violate his honour'. Ex-porn star Claudia Bavel made several claims about Casillas during a television interview. Bavel hit out at Casillas last week in a television interview and claimed he had given her the cold shoulder and is no longer replying to messages.

Calling him 'stingy and not at all generous' she also recalled an alleged incident when she told Iker she fancied a glass of wine and he responded by telling her to go to the supermarket herself to buy a bottle. In another interview released on Sunday, Bavel alleged that Casillas discussed the possibility of becoming a father again. He shares two children, Martin and Lucas, with his ex-wife Sara Carbonero.

Casillas has now responded with a lengthy statement on social media, with the former footballer hitting out at 'unacceptable events' over recent days, which he stated were had 'serious personal consequences'. ‘I have been involved in professional football since I was 14, a career that has given me many joys, perhaps the greatest and the one I am most proud of has been receiving enormous affection and support from the public,' Casillas said in a statement posted on social media.

'However, it has also brought with it an interest in aspects of my private life that I have always wanted to keep out of the media spotlight, as they belong to my strictest privacy. 'Despite this interest, I have NEVER negotiated with my private life, I have not granted any exclusives nor have I profited from what I consider more personal and reserved; what's more, I have always asked for respect and I have kept myself away from gossip, rumours or speculation.'.

He has vowed to pursue legal action in response to 'any violation of my privacy and honour', declaring he will seek damages. Casillas continued: 'It is difficult to accept that, without any consideration, certain people go on programmes to talk about me or my environment. Videos in bad taste are broadcast and anyone, without any knowledge of the matter, feels entitled to make comments, speculations and opinions of any kind about my personal life with absolute disregard, attacking my privacy and honour.

'NOT EVERYTHING IS WORTH IT, not everything is worth it to gain an audience, not everything is worth it to obtain easy profit or fame as ephemeral as it is undeserved at my expense, at the expense of someone whose 'notoriety' is only due to many years of work and perseverance. But, when I repeat, I have tried by all means to protect my privacy.

'The situation has reached a point where it is unsustainable and I will not allow any more interference in my private life or actions that violate or undermine my honour. 'I am doing this for myself and for all those around me, who are directly and seriously affected, as those who carry out these actions without caring at all know and are aware of.'. During her television interview, Bavel had given show bosses audio WhatsApp recordings which were aired on the programme.

This included one in which Casillas appears to have told her she was 'delicious' after seeing photos she sent him. Spanish journalist Javier Hoyos had claimed recently that he spotted the model and Casillas passionately kissing during a dinner date at an upmarket restaurant near the Costa Brava resort of Blanes last year, which Bavel said was their first date. Bavel was allegedly spotted sharing a passionate kiss with Casillas at a restaurant last year.
