Senegalese striker dumps girlfriend in UK, weds another in France

Newcastle and Senegalese striker Papiss Cisse allegedly left his girlfriend in the UK to marry another woman in France.

The 30-year-old striker last weekend got married to Senegalese Volleyball star and model,  Diallo Awa in a ceremony which held at a yacht outside Paris.

After the ceremony there was a lavish reception with cordon bleu catering and three cakes.

An English model, Rachelle Graham however is claiming to be in a relationship with Cisse and revealed that the striker told her he was going for holiday in Senegal.

24-year-old Racelle who is a beauty queen and former Miss Newcastle claims that Cisse told her he was going to Senegal for a month holiday and that she only found out that the striker got married in France online.

"I'm hurt and disgusted to learn Papiss has got married without me knowing after we spent so much time together recently,"  Miss Graham told the .

"But it's his life and if this is what he has chosen to do there is nothing much I can do about it. I just wish he had the decency to tell me first."

According to however, a friend of Cisse has revealed that the striker had split with Miss Graham since last year.

"Papiss was not seeing that girl, despite what she says. They may have met socially on occasion since their split but they were not in a romantic relationship together anymore and haven't been for some time," the friend said.

Papiss Cisse has not reacted to Mmiss Graham's allegations.

"Yes I am upset and hurt as we were very close and I trusted him all these years. I had a good life before I met Papiss and I intend to get that good life back!," the bitter Miss Graham said on Twitter.

Miss Graham who is white was subjected to a series of abuse for dating Cisse in 2013, an incident which was reported to the police.

It seems the abuse reappeared again when she again tweeted;"Contrary to what a lot of you think I have never needed his money - I have my own thank you - and I did not date him because of his job and fame.

"I dated him for the same reason most people date someone and anyone who knows me and Papiss will tell you that!

"Now it's time for me to move on with my life and he will do the same. Everything happens for a reason"
