Wife's Heartfelt Tribute to Diogo Jota on Wedding Anniversary

Rute Cardoso honors her late husband, Liverpool star Diogo Jota, with an emotional Instagram post marking one month since their wedding.

In a tender social media tribute, Rute Cardoso reflected on her love for Diogo Jota, who tragically passed away in a car accident three weeks after their wedding. Sharing cherished moments from their ceremony on June 22, Rute's caption expressed her enduring commitment, stating "one month of our 'until death do us part'," and affirming that she is "forever" his. Diogo Jota, at just 28 years old, lost his life in a devastating incident on July 3rd when the vehicle he was in suffered a catastrophic tire failure and caught fire in Spain's Zamora province. The former Wolves player joined Liverpool in 2020, making a significant impact with 65 goals in 182 appearances, and contributing to several major victories, including the FA Cup, League Cup, and Premier League. In a gesture honoring Jota's memory, Liverpool F.C. has retired the number 20 shirt and commissioned a mural near the stadium adorned with messages from grieving fans.
