Athina Oikonomakou, fresh from her split with Filippos Michopoulos, seems to have swiftly rebounded into the arms of 37-year-old Italian-Argentine basketball ace, Bruno Cerella. The couple spilled the beans exclusively on the “Breakfast” show, sharing a lively video from a recent Coldplay concert where they were spotted enjoying each other’s company.

“Bruno and I are thrilled to share this journey together,” Athina beamed during the show, confirming their budding romance.
Cerella, who juggles his time between the courts and real estate ventures, has been a frequent visitor to Greece for both professional and now personal reasons. The duo’s chemistry was on full display at the concert, where they appeared oblivious to onlookers.

“In love, as in basketball, you have to follow your instincts,” remarked Giorgos Liagas, teasing the reveal before airing the couple’s cozy concert footage.
Fans noted Cerella’s affectionate nod to Athina with the hashtag “Nana,” her endearing nickname, in his Instagram posts—a subtle yet telling sign of their bond.
This whirlwind romance marks a new chapter for Oikonomakou, known for her dramatic roles, and Cerella, whose moves off-court are now making headlines alongside his hoops skills.
Athina and renowned businessman Filippos Michopoulos revealed in April their decision to part ways after a decade-long relationship.
The couple, who tied the knot in a lavish Mykonos ceremony in 2018 and share two children, issued a joint statement to the media, expressing their mutual decision to separate.
“After 10 years together and the birth of our two children, we are in the unpleasant position of announcing the dissolution of our marriage,” the statement read. “Our children are what will unite us forever, and as loving parents, we will always be by their side with boundless love.”
“Our children’s mental well-being is our priority in this new chapter of our lives,” they continued. “We ask for your understanding to ensure their privacy and protect them from undue publicity and attention.”
