While French soccer player Kylian Mbappe is playing at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, his girlfriend, actress Ester Exposito, is keeping busy with her career.
Exposito was recently honored at the Festival TV Monte-Carlo, winning the International Golden Nymph for Most Promising Talent. But that's just the beginning of what's turning out to be a blockbuster month for the actress.
Mbappe is playing against Norway on Friday in the World Cup. It's a high-stakes matchup for both teams. But while Mbappe is at Boston Stadium for the game, Exposito is apparently in Los Angeles.
Exposito took to social media hours before Friday's game to share a gallery of photos from a trip to L.A. She simply captioned the post, "L.A."
The photos show her practicing dancing in a studio and exploring the city. But that's not all. She also had an announcement to make.

"As a result, her father assigns the enigmatic Sebastian Moore as her bodyguard," they add of the story. "Despite her fierce independence and his professional distance, they find themselves drawn to each other.
