Javier "Chicharito" Hernández has been in the news, not for his soccer-playing abilities but for his love life. The Mexican striker was engaged to Lucía Villalón up until recently, but the couple split up under circumstances that were unknown. Chicharito had kept mum about calling off the wedding but was spotted getting cozy with Camila Sodi in Paris and even shared a photo on Valentine's Day of a romantic dinner, although his valentine was never confirmed.

It was Villalón that broke her silence this week during a fashion event that gave fans some clarity. "What hurt me the most was his disloyalty, I wasn't expecting it, I was going to marry him," she said. "There's no relationship. We all make mistakes in relationships. I probably have made a lot."

Following the sportscasters comments about her split from the soccer star, Hernández posted a photo of himself with the following quote: “More powerful than the desire to succeed, is the courage to begin” Start as many times as necessary until you make it! #smile #blessed." Many people on social media speculated that this was his reaction to what his former fiancée said to the media.

Hours later he posted another quote that read: "let's keep learning and moving." It seems like Chicharito is trying to convey to all of his followers that he is in a happy place despite recently breaking off his engagementm while poor Lucía Villalón still seems to be heartbroken and trying to keep it together by keeping positive and hopeful about the future.

Speculation about Chicharito and Lucía's split swirled when the pair updated their Twitter profiles and neither had the "1422" that symbolized their relationship. A screenshot of Villalón's had the number at the end of her bio, but it is no longer there. The couple still follow each other on the social network and they both have photos together on their Instagram accounts. Initial reports pointed to distance being a major factor for their breakup.

Hernández and Villalón met when the Mexican player was at Real Madrid in Spain, where she is from. When Chicharito moved to Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, it took a hit on them. Lucía is now allegedly back in her home country as she is affected by the break up. The "1422" that symbolized their union were there lucky numbers. For Chicharito, "14" is the number he uses on the field and for Lucía, "22" is a lucky number that she even has tattooed on herself.
