QOTD: Sthefany Brito Clears The Alimony Air
“…the truth is that I did not plead for any amount of money…
…What happened is that when I left Italy to return to Brazil, I was surprised by an officer notifying me about an official divorce decree and a process in which I was involved. A litigious divorce. So what does one do when you’re thrown in court? Hire an attorney who will defend you. That’s what I did….
And the [female] judge assigned a value to it. But today the laws are equal for men and women. If [Pato] suddenly had given up his career to live in Brazil, maybe today I would be obliged to pay child support until he could return to work.”
- Sthefany Brito speaking for the first time about the astronomical €130,000 per month pension she supposedly petitioned Brazilian courts to receive on a monthly basis post-Pato. Public speaking ain’t her strong suit, eh?

she is famous in brazil but outside brazil we dont know who she is untill she dated pato..pato is known world wide.
we don't really know what happened so i am not defending pato but everyone here is against him and saying that she is a nice lady..well pato seems a nice guy too…and i have met him with ac milan once when they came to the united states… i dont think i will ever find a down to earth player like him.
She also said once that she thought pato is like" kaka" is she like carol?
Wow she is gorgeous!!!
"Public speaking ain’t her strong suit, eh?"
I'm confused, because personally I thought it was an appropriate answer. Perhaps there's a side to this I'm not aware of, which wouldn't be surprising, since I wasn't following this baller breakup.
Purrrty hairrrrr~~~
Wow. I would not have recognized her if you didn't tell me. She looks totally different — still gorgeous, of course!
'If [Pato] suddenly had given up his career to live in Brazil, maybe today I would be obliged to pay child support until he could return to work.'
Fair enough, but It's been quite a few months since they first filed for divorce, what is stopping her from returning to work? If she is so famous in Brazil and such a great actress as some of you have stated, why not return and resurrect her career? It's not as if she's been gone for 15 years, just 9 months or so.
After she went to Italy to live with Pato, her contract with Brazil's most popular TV Channel expired and they didn't sign a new contract with her. She's been auditioning for roles on all brazilian channels but I think none of the channels are willing to hire her because brazilians aren't very fond of her at the moment, specially after she (or as she stated, her lawyer) asked for €130,000 per month pension after only being married for 9 months and having no kids.
She's a good actress, she has talent (she's been acting since she was a child and her brother is also a famous actor in Brazil), but after the divorce drama her image was damaged. Before the drama, among brazilians, she had the image of a sweet, pretty and talented young actress, but now, after the high pension request and divorce drama, she has the image of a vain spoiled money seeking WAG.
I have no sympathy for her she was the one at 22 years old who decided to marry a 19 year olf football player simply to become a famous wag and nothing more.
legally what she said was true. and the fact that she's an actress (way more famous than pato maybe in brazil), and assuming it was pato who wasn't working, then she would have paid child support. i like how honest she was in that
She started working very early, and she's a good actress, her movies are really good. Sthefany's Public speaking was better than her ex's one.
Are you referring to Pato's public speaking skills in general or in regards to his divorce? Because but I don't think Pato has ever spoken publicly about his divorce.
NOBODY…male or female…deserves 130,000 euros per month after only nine months of marriage.
To be realistic, she did leave her career for him,and in many countries their law dictates that if one of the party leaves his or her work to stay at home, the other party has to pay alimony. What she said makes a lot of sense to me, and I don't like Pato either.
I actually think she spoke very eloquently and her comments made sense. Who are we to judge? She seems like a nice, hardworking young woman and we really need to stop being so catty … the reason men have been able to keep us girls down for so long is because they've had help from us – we do it to each other.
… and now that I;ve given you all your daily dose of ardent feminism, I'm off for the day.
She really looks like my sis on this pic,err that's strange lol…but anyway, I used to watch her TV programmes and I like her…hope she finds another guy that makes her happy
she's a great actress, very famous here in Brazil that has stopped work for a living in Europe and had a great unhappiness in her marriage.
I do not like Pato and hope she has better luck next time.
She deserves it!
I really like her, she was very famous in brasil before pato, i loved her in el clon!!!!!!!!!! best novela ever!!!!!!!!!
