The French model has lived between Madrid and London for a long time. She even sometimes travels for work between the two cities, and she is at least as quiet as Benzema. They don’t post pictures of themselves posing with each other on social media because they don’t want anyone to know about their private and family lives.

“That’s our private thing. I have always been like this. I don’t like to be in the spotlight or on TV. It’s stupid for me. I have my own life, with my family and friends. And it is also better and easier for them. Imagine you are 4 years old and live your life with a camera behind you. You can lose your mind.” Karim said in an interview when he was asked about his marriage to Cora.

The couple first met in Dubai in December 2015. After their first meeting, the two started going out together. Later, Cora moved to Madrid with Karim. She has been a real blessing in his personal life.
