Rafael Nadal Says Fatherhood Has Been an ‘Unexpected’ Adventure


Rafael Nadal provided insight into his life as dad to 1-year-old son Rafael, whom he shares with wife Maria Francisca Perello

The tennis superstar, 37, who welcomed his first child, son Rafael, in October 2022 with wife Maria Francisca Perelló, said he’s been forced into plenty of on-the-job dad training. He was forced to withdraw from the Australian Open in January after aggravating the injury during a match at the Brisbane Invitational, his first event in almost a year, earlier in the month. Andy Roddick and Serena Williams are just two tennis stars who’ve made headlines for their high-profile romances — and celebrity hook ups — in addition to their athletic abilities.
