Rio’s Olympic village is bristling with scandal after the break-up of a pair of synchronised divers from Brazil.

It’s not their parting, per se, that has tongues wagging, but the reason behind it.

Giovanna Pedroso, 17, and her dive partner, 20-year-old Ingrid Oliveira, have had an acrimonious split, after Pedroso claims she was forced to spend the whole night before her event outside her room while Oliveira entertained fellow Olympian, male canoeist named Pedro Goncalves. in their room.

The day after what Pedroso called a “marathon sex session”, the pair came last in the 10m synchronised event, which left Pedroso fuming at her partner.

O Globo reported that the incident was the last straw for Pedroso, who had a reportedly testy relationship with Oliveira.

“I have been waiting for four years to be present at the Olympics,” she told the paper. “And for her it was better to have fun and therefore threw me out of the room.”

“Me and my coach have talked and after the Olympics I will focus on my individual,” she said. “It’s good because I will not need to depend on anyone.”

Oliveira is a controversial figure in Brazil, and has been criticised previously for posting an Instagram picture of herself in a bikini before failing at a dive meet in Toronto in 2015.

This week, she tried to downplay the rift with Pedroso.

“We leave differences behind and we talked normally,” Oliveira told O Globo. “From today I will not jump synchronized with her.”

Goncalves steered well clear, telling a local paper: “My personal life, I do not speak about.”

Meanwhile, the Olympics’ Athletes Village has been notorious as a hot bed for sex.

The Olympic Committee has reportedly made 450,000 condoms available for the 11,178 athletes — roughly 40 for each.
