Lionel Messi is one of the best soccer players of all time, so it’s amazing to learn that he’s also a dedicated husband and father off the field. The Argentinian talent, born June 24, 1987, met his wife Antonella Roccuzzo in 2008 in their hometown of Rosario. They have three sons, Thiago (born 2012), Mateo (born 2015) and Ciro (born 2018), and wed in 2017.
The Messi family is always adorable when they’re out together. In 2021, they dressed to the nines for the Ballon d’Or ceremony held at Theatre Du Chatelet on November 29 in Paris, France. The boys all donned sequined back jackets with bow ties and white sneakers, while mom was pure glamour in gold.
