In June 2017, he confirmed that he’d welcomed his twin son and daughter, Mateo and Eva, 4. The mother of his older twins has not been identified, and it has been widely reported that the twins were welcomed via a surrogate. A month later, the athlete confirmed that his partner, Georgina, was pregnant. She gave birth to their first child together, daughter Alana, 3, in November 2017.
