Antonela Roccuzzo, wife of football icon Lionel Messi, recently opened up about the tough choices she made to support her husband’s career. In an exclusive interview with GRAZIA, the 36-year-old mother of three and entrepreneur shared her personal journey and the sacrifices she’s made along the way.
“I always dreamed of becoming a dentist,” Antonela revealed, recalling her early career goals. She had started studying dentistry at the National University of Rosario before switching to social communication. But as her relationship with Messi blossomed, life took a different turn.
“At that point, I was already with Leo, and I knew I was going to move soon,” she explained, acknowledging that her love for Messi meant putting her education on hold to stand by his side.
Through all of Messi’s career milestones—from Rosario to Barcelona, Paris, and now the United States with Inter Miami—Antonela has been a constant presence, supporting him every step of the way.
But Antonela isn’t just known for being Messi’s wife. She’s also making a name for herself as an ambassador for Adidas, the brand both she and her husband represent.
Talking about her new role, Antonela expressed how much it means to her: “I’ve always admired Adidas, and becoming part of the brand feels like a dream come true. I just want to live up to everyone’s expectations and do the best I can.”
From aspiring dentist to global ambassador, Antonela’s journey shows that being a supportive partner doesn’t mean putting your dreams on hold forever. She’s found a way to balance her roles as a loving mother and wife while pursuing her own career and personal growth, embodying resilience and strength.
Through all the ups and downs, Antonela’s unwavering support for Messi is clear, and their story continues to inspire as they navigate life together.
