Kevin-Prince Boateng’s new girlfriend Valentina Fradegrada invented ‘upside-down bikini’ and is Kung Fu master
KEVIN-PRINCE BOATENG’S new girlfriend Valentina Fradegrada ‘invented the upside down bikini’.
The former Portsmouth and Barcelona midfielder is dating the Italian model who is also said to be a Kung Fu master.
Fradegrada, 30, has 2.8million Instagram followers and is widely credited with starting the ‘upside down bikini’ fashion craze.
The style sees influencers don the swimwear which looks exactly as it sounds – like an bikini top on the wrong way up.
Fradegrada is said to have invented the style three years ago.
The couple shared recently romantic photos and videos on their social media accounts to announce they are in a relationship.
The bed, floor and bathtub were covered in rose petals and the images were captioned: “Finally.”
Fradegrada uploaded a picture of an enormous bouquet of flowers in September and tagged the location as Berlin – where Boateng plays with Hertha.

It was not clear at the time who the gift was from but it now seems clear they were from her new footballer beau.

She was born in Bergamo, Italy, speaks three languages and has previously lived in the USA.
The model has a degree in fashion design and marketing but is most well known for her glamorous Instagram profile.
