They have no doubt been spending time at his academy, Rafa Nadal Tennis Centre, at Sani Resort.
He was supported by his wife Maria and their son Rafael Jr. The couple, who tied the knot in 2019 in a romantic ceremony in Majorca after 14 years of dating, welcomed their son in October 2022. Spanish publication Diario de Mallorca confirmed the news at the time, stating: "Both the mother and her baby, born at 37 weeks, are doing well. The birth took place in a private clinic on the island, where Mery had to remain under observation and complete rest in the last few weeks."Although the tennis player prefers to keep his personal life private, Rafael had previously shared his thoughts on becoming a father.
Before the birth, the double Olympic champion told reporters: "If all goes well, I'm going to be a father. I'm not accustomed to discussing my private life. We live more calmly with a lower profile. I don't expect my life to change much because of it."The tennis player started dating the Pussycat Dolls singer in late 2015 and confirmed the relationship a year later.
