End of relationship made Belo and Gracyanne’s fame explode

However, at that time, the artist was in the newspapers because of his entries and exits from prison. The singer was arrested three times. The first, in 2002, was a preventive detention in connection with drug trafficking for 37 days.

The second arrest occurred between 2004 and 2006, when he entered the semi-open regime. He was only declared free in 2010. During his time in prison, the singer had a relationship with Viviane Araújo.

The two were together between 1998 and 2007, and the end of their relationship was controversial. The singer was accused of numerous betrayals and in the same year he separated from Viviane, he began his relationship with Gracyanne.

According to data from Google Trends, which analyzes the volume of searches since 2004, the name of the fitness muse had a spike in searches the year she began her relationship with Belo, surpassing the singer himself.

At the time, there were rumors that she had been pivotal in the separation between Belo and Viviane Araújo. The end of the marriage between Gracyanne and the pagodeiro also had a third element involved: Gilson de Oliveira, a personal trainer.

However, despite both having consolidated careers and being well-known names in the media, the search for the artists’ names increased significantly in April this year, that is, the month in which the end was announced.

From 2004, when Google Trends starts analyzing the data, until 2014 — except for 2007, Belo’s name is more searched compared to his ex-wife’s name. However, there was a turning point in 2014 — when activities on social media became frequent, Gracyanne established herself as a fitness influencer and gained prominence on the internet until 2019. Afterwards, the singer’s name grew again.

However, undeniably, the breakup, which happened in the same month that the singer began his Soweto reunion tour – boosted the artist’s name across the internet. Many internet users accused the celebrity of using the breakup to boost the tour’s numbers — but the singer did not comment on the matter.

As a result, Gracyanne also had her name searched for a lot and even made some statements about the end of the relationship. In an outburst on social media, the influencer said:

“I never expected [o término]. I don’t think anyone gets married to separate. I don’t regret the end of the relationship, I regret leaving [o relacionamento de lado]. I regret not having renewed my love every day, not having tried every day, not having fought every day, being careful, giving attention and not having spoken when I felt left out. I didn’t speak because my pride was too great,” she admitted.

However, in addition to the statements she made about her relationship with her ex-husband, the fitness muse showed that she followed her routine, both in training and in advertisements and work on the internet.

Belo says he met Gracyanne when the then dancer was just 16 years old. According to the singer, the meeting took place in Ribeirão Preto, when the young woman was performing with the group Tchakabum. It was there that Belo found himself enchanted by the young woman.

“Wonderful. I said: ‘Who’s that brunette over there?'”, recalls the musician. Soon after, Gracyanne’s manager gave the dancer’s phone number to Belo, starting what he calls a “flirt”, but the relationship between the two did not last.

At the time, Belo was 25 years old and in a relationship with Viviane Araújo. The relationship with Gracyanne didn’t last long at that time, but the mutual admiration remained.

Belo and Gracyanne’s paths crossed again in 2007, after Belo and Viviane separated. It was then that the two rekindled their romance. Despite the rumors, Belo denies that Gracyanne was the driving force behind the previous separation.

In an interview with Fofocalizando in 2019, Belo stated: “Gracyanne never did anything to Viviane. Gracyanne has nothing to do with the end point of Belo and Viviane Araújo’s relationship. I betrayed her, yes, but not with Gracyanne, and she You know that. We weren’t saints in this relationship.”

The influencer and the singer got married in a ceremony at the Candelária Church, in Rio de Janeiro. The union was celebrated by Father Marcelo Rossi.
