MANCHESTER United legend Patrice Evra has a Devil of a night out as he gets cosy with a mystery lady. The former footballer had a 4am snog outside a club in full view of fellow revellers – despite being engaged to model Margaux Alexandra, mum to two of his children.
French lothario Evra, who played 273 games for United in a trophy-laden career, was snapped last Sunday outside central Manchester’s trendy MNKY HSE restaurant and bar.
The embrace came a few hours before the Red Devils’ 2-2 draw against rivals Liverpool.
Evra, 42, who has worked as a pundit for Sky Sports and ITV, was seen leaning against a wall in a red and white baseball jacket as he hugged and kissed the ponytailed woman.
At one point, he cradled her face in his hands and planted a kiss on her lips. The pair were joined by a couple of other ladies, believed to be the woman’s mates, and another man.
An onlooker said the group all got into a black cab together.
They added: “They had their arms wrapped around each other, laughing and kissing.
“It was pretty brazen. I know it was four in the morning but there were still a lot of people around. He’s a well-known guy.”
Diplomat’s son Evra has spoken glowingly about his love for Danish Margaux, 29.
He began seeing her in 2020 after his 25-year relationship with childhood sweetheart Sandra came to an end, following 13 years of marriage.
The couple had their first child, a son, in May 2021 in Copenhagen. He wrote at the time: “I can’t describe how proud I am of Margaux. You were powerful not because you weren’t scared but because you went on so strongly despite your fear. You’re my rock, my universe.”
Last August, after the birth of their daughter, he said: “Merci for this magnificent miracle, another fruit of our love.” And he said after their engagement in November 2020: “Happiness, it’s a choice! I choose you for the rest of my life, my little mushroom.”
Evra has also praised Margaux for letting him “open up” about his emotions, saying he had cried for the first time in two decades and declaring: “Finally I am with someone where I can be myself.”
Sandra, who also has two kids with Evra, has vented her anger at his cheating and said she grew to “hate” him after their split.
She spoke in an interview of how he left their Paris home in January 2020 to go to work as a pundit and never returned.
She only figured out he was with Margaux when the model posted a photo of herself in the
gym of his London home. Evra was first accused of cheating in 2010, four years after signing for United, when CCTV was leaked of him kissing a girl in a hotel.
Sandra said: “I was furious. He said it was a stupid moment, he was sorry. I threatened to leave but he begged me to stay. He said he’d never do it again.”
Three years later he was accused of cheating again, with a Playboy model in Paris. Sandra said: “Patrice denied it but I always had doubts.”
She added that after Evra left her, she was contacted by solicitors saying he wanted a divorce.
She said: “He didn’t have the guts to tell me himself.”
Evra was contacted for comment.
