In response to his “wife’s” great sacrifices, Messi gave the beautiful Argentinian girl a grand wedding at the hotel with more than 260 guests who were friends and other famous players such as Neymar and Luis. Suarez and Gerard Pique,…


In a 2019 interview, Messi did not hesitate to praise his “roof”: “I love everything about Antonela. She always puts herself in a good mood and the way she faces problems is admirable. Antonella is a very intelligent person in every aspect of life.”
