Pele’s mother still doesn’t know about her son’s death

The mother of the deceased Pele, 100-year-old Celeste Arantes, has still not been able to tell that her son is no longer alive.

The Mirror wrote about it on Saturday.

The sister of the legendary football player said that relatives tell the mother that “we need to pray” for her son, but the woman does not understand what it is about. As Pele’s sister admitted, their mother “is in her own world.”

The death of a celebrity became known on December 29. The only three-time world champion in football history has died from complications of bowel cancer at the age of 82.

Brazil has declared three days of mourning. Pele will be buried in the world’s largest vertical cemetery in the center of Santos – he himself bought a place earlier in this cemetery, built by his friend.
