Former Germany international Thomas Müller has stepped out publicly with his new partner, Eve Rose Bitbol, marking their first official appearance as a couple during an evening in Paris. t-online reported that the 37-year-old footballer and the French student were spotted leaving the “Costes” restaurant, where Müller had his arm around her waist. Müller wore black trousers, a black shirt, and an olive-green overshirt, while Bitbol wore a simple black sheath dress. The appearance follows months of public speculation regarding the relationship after the couple was first seen together in late July in Charlotte, North Carolina, according to t-online.

The relationship comes four months after Müller and his former wife, Lisa Müller, announced the end of their 15-year marriage. An attorney for the couple confirmed the amicable split to the Bild newspaper in early June. Since then, Müller has continued his club career abroad following his departure from FC Bayern München, signing with Major League Soccer side the Vancouver Whitecaps.

Oktoberfest Outings and Double Dates in Munich

Days prior to their appearance in Paris, Müller and Bitbol attended the Munich Oktoberfest alongside Mats Hummels and model Nicola Cavanis. According to reporting by the Abendzeitung, the two couples arrived on a Tuesday evening and initially spent time inside the private Bratwurst-Zelt, a smaller tent favored by prominent guests seeking privacy away from larger crowds. The Abendzeitung noted that the tent holds just 558 seats in its interior.

After leaving the tent, the group walked the festival grounds without visible security personnel, eventually visiting a shooting gallery where they were filmed by fans and social media influencers, including TikTok user nebxfi. Blick reported that Müller travels between North America and Munich to maintain his ties to Bavaria during breaks in the MLS calendar, ensuring his new partner experiences his home region.

Backgrounds and Timelines Across Outlets

Reporting across German-language sports media highlights different facets of the couples’ public transition. While t-online noted that Bitbol is 11 years younger than the 2014 World Cup winner, the Abendzeitung added that the 26-year-old graduated from the ESSEC Business School in 2025. Absolutfussball.com noted that Bitbol is already well-integrated into Müller's immediate circle, marking a change in his personal life following the separation from his ex-wife.

On the athletic front, absolutfussball.com reported that the Vancouver Whitecaps recently confirmed Müller will remain with the Canadian club for the upcoming Major League Soccer campaign. The league is preparing to transition to a modified sprint season format beginning in 2027 to align closer with European schedules, featuring a condensed 14-match regular season concluding with playoffs in May.
