Who is Antonella Roccuzzo, Messi’s wife?

Antonella Roccuzzo is an Argentinean model and influencer by profession.

She is well-known for being the wife of Argentinean soccer star Lionel Messi. Lionel Andrés Messi, also known as Leo Messi, is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for and captains the Argentina national team.

Antonella Roccuzzo is not your typical “WAG” (wives and girlfriends of footballers). She and Messi have been a couple since 2008, and are rumored to be engaged. Antonella and Leo are childhood sweethearts. They have known each other since they were five years old as Antonella is Messi’s best friend’s cousin Lucas Scaglia.

Leo Messi’s wife has been featured as a model in various products. One of her most recognized roles has been with the Argentine fashion label Ricky Sarkany.

In 2016, she announced that she had signed with a fashion house that predominantly deals with footwear. In mid 2017, Antonela and Luis Suarez’s wife, Sofia Balbi opened a botique in Avenida Diagonal in Barcelona.

The boutique was the first Sarkany store in Europe. During the store’s opening ceremony, some Barcelona stars such as Neymar, Cesc Fabregas, Sergio Busquets, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen were in attendance.

Roccuzzo has also launched a children’s clothing brand Enfans Argentina alongside her sister Paula. Her children and nephews can often be seen modeling the clothes on Antonela’s Instagram, as well as on the brand’s page.

Story of how Messi and his wife, Antonella Roccuzzo, met.

Messi and Antonella are childhood sweethearts who grew up in the same town. Their relationship became public in 2008, and the two got engaged in 2010 in a private ceremony.

Lionel Messi and Antonella Roccuzzo wedded on 30 June 2017 in a beautiful ceremony held in their hometown of Rosario. There were 250 guests in attendance, including Spanish former professional footballer Gerard Piqué, Luis Suarez, and Neymar.

There is an interesting story regarding how Messi and his wife met. It all started at the home of Messi’s friend Lucas Scaglia.

Messi first met Roccuzzo when he was 5 years old in their native Argentina.

When Messi and Antonela met for the first time, he was playing Sony games at Lucas’s home and Lucas. When Antonella approached them and asked if they needed something, Messi was too shy to say anything.

At that time, Messi was nine years old and Antonella was eight years old. “Who is she?” Messi ate and asked her friend. “Antonela, my cousin,” her friend replied.

During those two days, a report suggests Leo could not look away from her for a second. The two children became friends, but at that time Messi knew that he wanted to be with her forever.

After that, the young Messi often fell in the house of his buddy Lucas, hoping to meet his beautiful cousin. Because he knows that this woman will become his partner after many years.

Trainer Enrique Dominguez found Lucas’ father and asked what happened.

“What is Messi standing there?” he asked. “He is waiting for us to leave because he wants to come to our house,” Lucas’s father replied loudly. “He often goes to your home, why is it so anxious now?” Enrique Dominguez asked. “Because the weekend is coming, Lucas’ cousin Antonela is coming. Messi likes her,” Lucas’s father said.

Leo Messi soon worshipped under the pomegranate skirt of Antonela Rocuzzo. Messi often writes to her, and he tells her that when they grow up, she will be his girlfriend.

Messi was there and found a group of close friends and a woman who made him more passionate about life.

However, the couple took a long road.

Despite a sweet friendship, the professional athlete left home at age 13 to pursue his soccer training in Spain. They eventually reconnected in 2005 after Messi found out that the model’s best friend had died in a fatal car accident.
