Luka Doncic and Anamaria Goltes, expecting their first child in 2023, are preparing for their upcoming wedding

Star NBA player Luka Doncic has flourished in the limelight since coming to the US from Europe.

The forward for the Dallas Mavericks has also acknowledged that his fiancée Anamaria Goltes has assisted him in adjusting to the demands of celebrity.

The couple first connected as kids in Croatia, and when they dated for 16 years, they popped the question in style last summer in front of Slovenia’s Bled Castle.

Their daughter Gabriella was born in December, making them parents now.

It was recently disclosed by Luka that Anamarie is not a big basketball fan, which he finds to be rather convenient as it allows him to disconnect from work at home.

“I met her in Croatia. I met her when we were 11 – I don’t know, something like that,” Doncic revealed to Rachel Nichols on Headliners.

“So I’m really happy to have her. It’s been great and she helps me a lot.

“It’s a lot of pressure outside. When I get home, it’s no basketball talk.

“She don’t like basketball, but she goes to every game.

“I mean, she likes it now, but she didn’t like it, which is good for me. I really like that.”

Luka replied, laughing, “No,” to Nichols’ question about whether or not he was romantic.

On Luka’s amazing journey from Europe to the NBA, Anamarie has been by his side.

With a sizable following on the internet, the gorgeous 26-year-old Slovenian is a model and style icon.

The little village of Zagorje ob Savi in central Slovenia is where Goltes was born and reared.

In an online Q&A, she stated that she now devotes her time to becoming a “model, entrepreneur, influencer, and student.”
