According to reports in the French news portal La Otra Cronica (LOC), Benzema is cheating on his current girlfriend Chloe, who recently delivered their daughter Melia.
The report claims Benzema (26) is involved in a relationship with a Spanish television reporter Marta Riesco (26), who works on a TV programme called the Sixth Jugones. The report claims the couple have been regularly sneaking out, away from public eye and hanging out together. <img title="Karim Benzema.

Although the journalist has denied the story, her friends have confirmed the same to the French media network. According to Riesco's friends, she and Benzema are "more than friends."
Riesco recently posted a picture on Twitter of a bouquet of roses which is believed to be given to her by Benzema. In another tweet, she described the newfound joy in her personal life by saying that it was nice to be treated like a princess.
Riesco has previously dabbled in singing and modeling before entering journalism. She has also won a beauty pageant &mdash; the Miss Segovia title &mdash; in 2006.
