GRANDCHILDREN VISIT PELÉ IN HOSPITAL
This Wednesday (28), one of Pelé’s daughters, Kely Nascimento, shared the record showing Gabriel and Octávio visiting their grandfather at the Albert Einstein hospital in São Paulo.
“These moments are hard to explain. Sometimes, a lot of sadness is despair. At other times, we laugh and talk about fun memories. And what we learn most from all of this is that we have to reach out to each other, and hold each other very close”, wrote Kelly in the post.
On social networks, the boys published a photo, in which they appear holding their grandfather’s hand and revealed that the meeting of the three was desired by their mother.
“Making mistakes and getting it right are part of our life, not everything is a thousand wonders, every family has fights and raids, ours is no different, but sometimes union and love are more important than anything!
I thank God for providing this moment, because it was what my mother dreamed of the most, there are things that some sow and others reap and we are reaping.
I thank those who were happy for us, we are extremely happy and thank all of my family in advance, who were extremely receptive and loving with us !!!
Also cheering and praying for our grandfather’s improvement. God bless you all and from now on it’s a new story!”, wrote the brothers in a joint Instagram post.
SANDRA REGINA FILHA DE PELÉ
Born August 24, 1964, in the city of Guarujá, São Paulo, Sandra Regina Arantes do Nascimento filed a lawsuit in court to be recognized as daughter of Pelé in 1991, aged 27.
The young woman argued that the world soccer star had been related to his mother, the maid Anízia Machado. The legal battle lasted five years, reaching the conclusion in 1996 that Sandra was indeed the daughter of the ex-santos player.
Even with judicial recognition, Pelé did not show acceptance with his daughter. The former athlete preferred not to approach Sandra, according to G1, who died in 2006 due to breast cancer.
