Murilo and Marília were together for four years, between comings and goings. The relationship ended in September, for a “beastly” reason, he said. The singer said that “for sure” would be with her on the plane if they were still together:

Murilo said that he kept in constant contact with Marília even after the breakup.
The relationship was very good. Every time we had some kind of friction, let’s say we had to get away as a couple, but we always respect too much. We never stopped talking, especially after Leo. I always respected her a lot as a mother and she respected me a lot as a father too, above all else – he said.
The singer also described how much he thought Marília was special:
‘She was too intense and she loved too much. She loved so much, everything. I always say she is a genius. First composition, 12 years old… She was always way ahead of her time. Wherever she put her hand, she changed everyone’s life. I don’t talk financially. But she changed, whether it was with a word, advice, a story she told. Or, I don’t know, with a little push, you know? In order for anything to happen, she changed everyone’s lives.
