True friendship can overcome the barriers of time and circumstances, and the case of Iker Casillas and Nika, a former contestant on the second edition of 'Operación Triunfo', is tangible proof of this. Years after they were romantically linked, Iker and Nika show that they have consolidated a solid and authentic friendship.
Since he announced his retirement from football in 2019, Iker Casillas has remained active in various projects that he is passionate about. Sport continues to be an essential part of his life, and in search of new experiences, he has embraced yoga as an integral discipline. In this path, he has found a special bond with Nika, who has become a yoga instructor after her passage through the world of music.
Nika, whose music career has taken a more amateur turn, has excelled as a yoga instructor, and her clients include famous names like singer Manuel Carrasco and his wife, Almudena Navalón. However, what has really caught her attention is the relationship she has with Iker Casillas.
Although in 2009 they were the subject of love rumors, they themselves denied any romance and affirmed that their connection was genuine friendship.
Nika recently shared a video on her Instagram account where Iker is seen practicing yoga under her guidance. This interaction between the former soccer player and the singer reveals the deep friendship and good understanding they have cultivated over the years.
Despite the turns their lives have taken, both Iker Casillas and Nika have maintained a close bond that transcends the past and shows that it is possible to maintain a close and sincere relationship with an ex.
On a personal level, both Iker Casillas and Nika are single. After his separation from Sara Carbonero in March 2021, Iker has been linked to different people, although he has not confirmed any official relationship. For her part, Nika went through a difficult time with the breakdown of her 10-year marriage with Jordi Roselló in February 2022, added to the mourning for the loss of her mother a month before.
