World Cup winner Thomas Müller has stepped out publicly with his new partner, Eve Rose Bitbol, in Paris, as reported by t-online.de.
The appearance follows months of public speculation regarding Müller’s personal life after his separation from his former wife, Lisa Müller. According to legal representation speaking to bild.de, the 15-year-old marriage ended in an amicable split earlier in the year. While initial rumors linked Müller and Bitbol as early as July when they were spotted in Charlotte, North Carolina, their recent outings in Munich and Paris confirm the relationship.
Double Date at the Costes Restaurant in the French Capital
Photographers captured Müller with his arm around her waist as they exited the venue. Bild.de noted that Bitbol appeared slightly unaccustomed to the media attention, having lived a private life prior to the relationship.
The couple was not alone during the evening. They were joined by fellow German footballer Mats Hummels and his partner, model Nicola Cavanis. Hummels and Müller share a long history as teammates for both the German national team and FC Bayern Munich. bild.de reported that Hummels and Cavanis have been linked publicly since appearing together at the Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris in October 2024.
Oktoberfest Appearance Preceded the Trip to France
Müller flew in from North America between club fixtures to visit the traditional folk festival. Social media footage shared by festival visitors captured Müller and Bitbol visiting a shooting gallery and spending time inside a smaller, quieter tent popular among celebrities.
The timing aligns with Müller’s ongoing career with the Vancouver Whitecaps in Major League Soccer. Absolutfussball.com reported that the club recently confirmed Müller will remain with the Canadian side for the upcoming season. The MLS is transitioning to a restructured calendar for 2027 featuring a condensed 14-match regular season and playoffs concluding in May.
Background on the New Relationship and Academic Path
Unlike athletes accustomed to constant scrutiny, she spent years outside the public eye before her relationship with the veteran forward drew media attention.
The transition in Müller’s personal life became public in June, when legal counsel confirmed his separation from Lisa Müller after a decade and a half of marriage. Since then, the German media has closely tracked Müller’s transition from his long tenure at FC Bayern Munich to his new chapter in Major League Soccer and his public appearances across Munich and Paris.
