Dancer Sheila Mello, 43, debuted on her YouTube channel a new talk show called Na Sacada and in the first episode she welcomed her ex-husband, ex-swimmer Fernando Scherer, aka Xuxa, 47.
Right away, an unusual moment marked the conversation. Sheila gave him a “best ex in the world” medal. Both were together for eight years and have a daughter the same age, Brenda.
“Our conversations, at first, are for Brenda’s benefit. And then she tells me about her boyfriend, anything that happens. I talk about my relationships. We exchange it naturally”, highlights Xuxa during the conversation.
According to them, today the ex-couple’s relationship is one of a lot of partnership. “The two understand that we did something together for love. And when they separate, even if there is a pain or a wound there in the separation, I have to leave that wound aside, she needs to leave her wound”, says Xuxa.
It was in August 2018 that Mello released a statement about her separation from former swimmer Fernando Scherer. “Thank you for everything, I will always love what we built,” she said on her Instagram account.
“I have some bad news, but I’d rather you know it from me than the thing be spread with untruths. The partnership of man and woman between me and Fernando has come to an end! It’s love and respect for us to be the best partners to take care of good most precious of our lives, Brendinha!”, she posted.
Mello also said that the matter was sensitive and, therefore, would not respond to the comments. Fans, however, posted several messages of support: “Please tell me it’s April Fools,” said one; “I can’t believe it! What a pity. It’s always horrible, especially when there’s a child in the middle!”, said another.
Some comments criticized the dancer: “She has always prioritized her career as a dancer. She has to know how to balance things”, said an internet user. “Unfortunately, it was definitely Sheila’s fault and her ridiculous crisis at 40. There are people who don’t value the best of this life, which is a family”, said another.
Mello and Scherer met on the show A Fazenda (Record), in 2009, and got married a year later. The couple’s only child, Brenda, was born in 2013. Sheila, who became famous after being chosen the new blonde of É o Tchan, returned to the group for a while to do some shows in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the contest that elected her.
