Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleSpanish star Ester Expósito returns as Marfil Cortés in Prime Video's romantic thriller Drawn Together. The Elite star plays a kidnapped New York heiress who falls for her enigmatic bodyguard, 'Sebastián Moore,' showcasing her shift from teen fame to leading lady in intense, book-adapted romances.
The movie is releasing on September 9, 2026. While the release date is approaching, Ester’s personal life has also come into the headlines. For the unversed, she is rumoured to be in a relationship with Kylian Mbappé.
Ester Expósito and Kylian Mbappé have not confirmed their relationship yet
Ester Expósito and Kylian Mbappé have been linked since early 2026, though neither has ever publicly confirmed the relationship. Kylian Mbappé is a 27-year-old French football superstar, a World Cup winner in 2018 and current forward for Real Madrid and the France national team.
The timeline started in late February 2026 when French blogger Aqababe reported on March 2, 2026, that the two were seen together in Madrid on February 25, 2026. Reports claimed Mbappé had been an admirer of the Spanish actress for years and contacted her through her friendship with Vinicius Jr.
In early March 2026, during Paris Fashion Week, they were photographed getting into the same car and sharing dinner at Le 10ème Ciel at Pullman Paris Tour Eiffel. The same week, photos went viral of them landing together on a private jet from Paris to Madrid, wearing casual outfits and staying at the same luxury hotel.
They were spotted again in Madrid, with Mbappé driving Expósito after the international break. In early April, Expósito was seen in the VIP box at Santiago Bernabéu during the Madrid derby, which many outlets called a non-verbal confirmation. The biggest moment came in May 2026 when footage and photos from Ibiza showed them kissing and cuddling on a yacht.
The story continued with more yacht photos from Sardinia, Italy, followed by luxury shopping at Dior in Paris in July 2026. Throughout, both stayed silent, using a classic "not confirming but being seen together" strategy. Expósito has addressed the scrutiny in interviews, saying she is a very private person and is still getting used to the spotlight since Elite. On July 30, 2026, she publicly said she would take legal action against false headlines about her private life.
