F1 champion Lando Norris splits from girlfriend Magui Corceiro
Lando Norris has reportedly ended his relationship with Portuguese model and actress Magui Corceiro, bringing to a close one of Formula 1’s most high-profile romances.
According to reports that emerged on Thursday evening, the reigning world champion and Corceiro have decided to part ways after months in the spotlight together. News of the split was first circulated by UK publication The Sun, which claimed the couple had quietly gone their separate ways. The report surfaced shortly after respected Formula 1 paddock insider and photographer Kym Illman hinted that an announcement regarding the pair was imminent.
The development comes after a whirlwind 2025 season in which Corceiro became a familiar face in the Formula 1 paddock. Frequently seen in the McLaren garage, she offered visible support as Norris, 26, surged to his maiden world championship. Her regular appearances trackside drew significant media attention, with cameras often capturing her reactions during tense qualifying sessions and dramatic race finishes.
Throughout the championship campaign, their relationship appeared strong, with Corceiro present at numerous grands prix as Norris battled for the title. As his profile rose to new heights on track, hers followed off it, amplifying public interest in their personal lives.
Who is Magui Corceiro?
Magui Corceiro, whose full name is Margarida Corceiro, is one of Portugal’s most recognisable young celebrities. Now 23, she began her career in the entertainment industry at just 17, quickly landing roles in Portuguese television dramas that helped establish her as a household name. Her acting work gained her a loyal following in her home country long before her relationship with Norris propelled her into the international spotlight.
In 2020, she expanded her television presence by competing in Portugal’s version of Dancing with the Stars, further boosting her popularity. Her charisma and growing fanbase translated seamlessly into the fashion world, where she has enjoyed considerable success as a model.
Corceiro has appeared on the cover of Vogue Portugal and collaborated with major global brands including Intimissimi, Alo Yoga and Kerastase. Her strong social media presence has made her a powerful digital influencer, and she was named by Forbes as the most influential Instagram personality in Portugal — a title that underscores her reach and impact online.
Beyond modelling and acting, Corceiro has also ventured into entrepreneurship. She co-founded the eco-conscious swimwear brand Missu, reflecting a growing focus on sustainability within the fashion industry. The brand aligns with her public image as a modern, socially aware businesswoman.
Life in the spotlight
While her relationship with Norris brought increased international exposure, it also intensified scrutiny. Over the past year, Corceiro has experienced the darker side of fame, particularly on social media platforms where public figures often face relentless commentary.
Just over two weeks ago, she spoke out publicly about the abuse she has endured online. In a powerful statement shared with her followers, Corceiro revealed that she had been subjected to harassment, hate messages and even death threats.
“Online hate, harassment and death threats are not ‘part of the internet’,” she wrote. “They are serious forms of abuse and criminal behavior. Behind every screen is a real person. Words do real harm.”
She continued by stressing that such behaviour should never be normalised, particularly when it crosses into threats and intimidation. “No form of harassment is acceptable — threats and intimidation especially cross a line,” she said. “I will no longer normalize this behavior. I choose to speak up and set boundaries. We can do better.”
Her candid remarks were widely shared and sparked conversations about the pressures faced by partners of elite athletes, especially in a sport as globally followed as Formula 1.
What next?
Neither Norris nor Corceiro has publicly confirmed the split at the time of writing. Both remain highly focused on their respective careers, with Norris preparing to defend his world title and Corceiro continuing to expand her acting, modelling and business ventures.
For Norris, the end of the relationship marks a significant personal change following the most successful year of his professional life. For Corceiro, it signals a new chapter as she navigates fame on her own terms, determined to set boundaries and confront online abuse head-on.
As one of Formula 1’s biggest stars and one of Portugal’s most influential young celebrities, both figures are likely to remain firmly in the public eye — albeit now on separate paths.
