Caroline Lijnen came into the news last year in April after the news about her affair with her former boyfriend, Kevin De Bruyne’s national and then-Chelsea teammate Thibaut Courtois was broken to media.

Lijnen has now come forward and revealed her side of the story stating, "Kevin cheated on me. I did not say anything for months because I couldn’t say anything, as Kevin’s parents said they would take legal action if I gave my story."

Her quotes were published on caughtoffisde and explains that since De Bryune had already made their affair public, she has decided to not stay silent on the incident anymore.’

“I was under pressure and I could not have contact with Kevin,” she explains. “I respected everything. But in his book Keep it Simple, Kevin wrote a passage about my affair with Thibaut. So, I decided to remain silent no longer. In the summer of 2012, Kevin told me that he had an affair with my old best friend. I gave him the choice: her or me. I was ready to give him another chance, but our relationship was never the same afterwards.”

“[I then went to Madrid, and even] Kevin thought that this trip was a good idea. I asked him beforehand. But then something happened that should never have happened. That evening, Thibaut offered me what I had not received a three-year relationship with Kevin.”

“With Thibaut, I could talk about anything and everything and he had even prepared me a delicious meal. Kevin never did it for me. Kevin had deceived me and I thought: why shouldn’t I do that too?”
