Lionel Messi, wife attend Coldplay concert
At the live show, the 38-year-old Argentine player received loud cheers from fellow concertgoers as he relaxed in the VIP section. In a video now viral online, Messi gave a warm wave as he acknowledged the fans' excitement and appreciation, flashing his signature shy smile, which left the crowd even more delighted by his presence.
While Messi opted for a simple outfit, a white button-down shirt top paired with plain black pants and sneakers, his wife chose an all-black look – a black sleeveless top and baggy pants. While Messi's attendance at the concert stirred a lot of excitement among fans, it was his 'kiss cam' moment that left people talking.
'Jumbotron with Lionel Messi! (He didn't hide, though),' X account Coldplay Access wrote, sharing the now-viral clip featuring the Argentine footballer and his wife. Hard Rock Stadium in Miami too shared the clip online.

Joining the fun was Brazilian musician Felipe Araújo, who playfully commented, 'With you, there will be no problem with cameras.'
One of the users, @BTDdrago, with a hint of sarcasm, commented, 'Before I read the caption, I thought Messi had been caught cheating too.'
The football icon married his childhood sweetheart in June 2017 in their hometown of Rosario, Argentina.
At the time, the media and public called it the "wedding of the century" mainly because of their fairytale-like romance and global fame. The couple has been blessed with three beautiful sons: Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro.
