Lionel Messi is a champion and a family man. See his best photos with his wife and kids right here.
Lionel Messi is widely considered one of the greatest soccer players of all time, but off the pitch, he’s also a devoted husband and father. Born June 24, 1987, the Argentinian star has been with his wife, Antonella Roccuzzo, since 2008 after reconnecting in their hometown of Rosario. The couple married in 2017 and share three sons — Thiago (born 2012), Mateo (born 2015), and Ciro (born 2018).
Over the years, Messi and his family have become fan favorites in their own right. The boys often join him for major milestones, whether celebrating Argentina’s historic 2022 World Cup win or cheering him on from the sidelines during his Inter Miami matches. In 2025, the family has continued making headlines — from attending youth soccer events to supporting Messi throughout Inter Miami’s run toward another MLS title. Ciro even went viral recently after scoring an impressive free-kick during an Inter Miami youth match, showing the soccer genes clearly run deep.
