Who Is Lionel Messi's Wife? All About Model Antonela Roccuzzo
Hello, you, person who makes soccer your entire personality once every four years when the World Cup rolls around. We're here to talk about Lionel Messi and his wife, model Antonela Roccuzzo, who just became the latest couple to blow up after appearing on Coldplay's infamous kiss cam (but, like, for a good reason). The two got a special shout-out during Coldplay's final U.S. show on their Music of the Spheres World Tour on July 27—and if you, like many fans, are saying, 'Messi is married???' then we're here to catch you up to speed. Starting with: Lionel and Antonela have known each other since they were kids thanks to Antonela being the cousin of Lionel's childhood bestie (and fellow soccer player) Lucas Scaglia. They even grew up in the same hometown of Rosario, Argentina—and while Lionel ended up moving away to Barcelona to pursue his soccer career, they stayed in touch throughout their teen years. Lionel even reportedly flew back home to support Antonela in 2005 when her best friend tragically died in a car accident. These two were pretty private and low-key in the early days of their relationship, though they did get papped a lot, usually while Lionel was wearing a speedo: They eventually went public in the mid-aughts and it's been non-stop cuteness ever since. And since being officially official, they've occasionally given fans cute BTS pics of the early days in their 'ship. Prepare for your heart to skip several beats: On top of being held at a luxury hotel in their home city of Rosario, there were some major A-list guests including Luis Suárez, Gerard Piqué, and Shakira. All boys, named Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro. While Antonela doesn't speak to the media much, Lionel chatted to FC Barcelona about fatherhood and his family, saying, "You grow and you learn. You gather experience in all aspects of life, on and off the field. But, as a human being, having three children changed my perspective on life, my way of thinking and it also helped me grow." She has worked with brands including Stella McCartney, Adidas, and most recently Alo. But she's been modeling for years. Here she is signing a modeling contract allll the way back in 2016! Before taking her relationship with Messi public, Antonela attended the National University of Rosario and studied dentistry as well as social communication. But she eventually moved to Barcelona to support Lionel and have cute moments like this: Antonela is extremely supportive of Lionel's career and rarely misses his games. So yes, obviously she was there for his 2022 FIFA World Cup win! As he put it to FC Barcelona, "I really admire how she deals with the day to day, she is always in a good mood and she approaches problems admirably. She is highly intelligent and well rounded in all aspects of life." Cool, excited for these two to join the Beckhams and the Federers as sporty couples we're obsessed with!

Messi and his wife had a MUCH better time on infamous Coldplay 'kiss cam'
These days, getting caught on the Coldplay concert kiss cam isn't necessarily the best thing (that is, if you're allegedly hiding something). But when you're Lionel Messi, the world's best soccer player, and you're with your wife, it's not bad! In fact, you might get sung to by the band's Chris Martin! That's what happened on Sunday, with Messi and wife Antonela appearing on the kiss cam and getting these words from Martin: "Well Leo, my beautiful brother, you and your wife are looking so fine. Thanks for coming today, to see our band play. The number one sports person of all time!" It was all smiles and waves from Messi and Antonela. Everyone loved it. Suffice it to say, they had a MUCH better time than others have had on the Coldplay kiss cam. This comes days after Martin's ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow appeared in a hilarious video for Astronomer that winked at the other viral moment that made headlines.
