Christian McCaffrey, 27, has had quite the football career before and after being drafted in the NFL, but it turns out he’s also had an interesting love life. The professional athlete, who plays for the San Francisco 49ers, is currently married to model Olivia Culpo, 31, and their romance seems to be stronger than ever. From appearances at football games to posting Instagram photos, the lovebirds haven’t been shy about publicly showing off their love for one another since they first got close in 2019.
As the Super Bowl approaches on February 11 and Christian and his teammates take on the Kansas City Chiefs, all eyes are set to be on Christian and Olivia and whether or not they have a memorable moment during the game. Olivia recently surprised Christian’s mom, Lisa McCaffrey, with a suite at the big game after the doting parent admitted she couldn’t afford it, so the athlete’s nearest and dearest are sure to be cheering him on in Las Vegas, where the game takes place!
As fans get excited about Christian’s upcoming Super Bowl game, find out more about Olivia and her relationship with Christian as well as Christian’s past loves below.
Olivia is Christian’s wife. She is originally from Cranston, RI and is best known as a model and actress. She first stepped into a big spotlight after she won the Miss Rhode Island USA competition, which led her to being crowned Miss USA and then Miss Universe in 2012. After her pageantry success, she went on to appear in various television series and films, including Paradise City, I Feel Pretty, and Venus as a Boy.
Olivia was romantically involved with singer Nick Jonas from 2013 until 2015 and was then linked to football player Tim Tebow until Nov. 2015. She then dated football player Danny Amendola from 2016 until 2019. She and Christian sparked romance rumors the summer after her split from Danny and it started when he liked a social media photo of hers. A few months later, they were photographed during a vacation in Mexico and Olivia started attending some of Christian’s football games. By late 2019/early 2020, they took their romance to Instagram and started posting photos and videos about each other.
“Happy Valentine’s Day to my best friend. Thank you for changing my life and showing me the kind of love I always wanted but never thought was possible. You are the definition of an answered prayer. I am the luckiest girl in the world ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️,” Olivia wrote about Christian in Feb. 2020.
The lovebirds’ bond grew stronger and they ended up getting a dog together in summer 2020. Christian named his boat after Olivia in 2021. The couple also made appearances on red carpets, including the Vanity Fair Oscars party in early 2022. They went on to celebrate their third anniversary in June 2022 and Olivia gushed over her beau, in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in Nov. 2022.
