While speaking to El Periodico, Nadal commented that he already has decided on a “roadmap” on having kids with his wife. Nadal and Marie celebrated a year of their marriage on the 19th of October. However, tennis fans have spectated the duo for years. While Nadal dominated the courts, Marie sits courtside to cheer him on.

“Mery and I have been together for 16 years. It was a very nice day, a lot, and I’m not very given to this kind of thing, but we were the ones we had to be, trustworthy people, and we had a great time,” Rafa said.

We know Rafa to be one of the kindest people on tour. On having kids with wife, Rafa is clear on their plans for starting a family. Spaniard has also declared the tough road a professional player endures.

“We are clear about our roadmap and, when it comes, it will come. If I would like to have a tennis son? I don’t think it’s a dad’s issue, that’s very, very, difficult and being a professional athlete, too. Yes, I would like that, if I have children, they would grow up with the values ​​that sport brings, because it is a very positive environment, but from there to tennis players is very difficult, and I don’t know!” Rafa added.
