(AFP) – Rafael Nadal married his partner of 14 years, Maria Francisca Perello, at a castle in Mallorca on Saturday.
Rafa, the 19-time Grand Slam champion, tied the knot with 31-year-old Perello at La Fortaleza, with a reported 350 guests invited to a private ceremony.
Our champ met his wife through his younger sister Maribel Isabel, a childhood friend of Mery.
They brought in Michelin star chef Macarena de Castro to cater the event, according to Daily Mail. The venue is nothing short of lavish. The estate—which boasts seven villas, 17 bedrooms, two swimming pools and a helipad—was originally built in 1628, and served as the set for the Tom Hiddleston, Olivia Colman and Hugh Laurie-starred BBC thriller The Night Manager.
