Argentine pop star Tini announces engagement with World Cup winner Rodrigo de Paul

Argentine pop sensation Tini has announced her engagement to World Cup-winning football star Rodrigo De Paul. The singer and actress, also known as Martina Stoessel, shared the news on her Instagram, revealing she had begun her engagement preparations during a recent trip to Paris. Tini, a prominent figure in Argentina's music scene, documented her dress trials and other preparations for her upcoming engagement.

Known for her role in Disney Channel Latin America's Violetta, Tini has garnered a massive following of over 21 million Instagram followers and 15 million daily listeners on Spotify. Her romantic relationship with De Paul began in late 2021, and they confirmed their status as a couple in April 2022. The news of their engagement, however, sparked tabloid speculation due to the timing, as De Paul had recently ended a 11-year relationship with model Camila Homs, who is the mother of his two children.

Despite these rumors, Tini has consistently denied any involvement in their breakup, stating that the relationship between her and De Paul has been a private matter. The couple's romance gained further attention during the 2022 World Cup, with De Paul donning "TTT" - an acronym for Tini's signature slogan, La Triple T - embroidered on his boots.

After a brief separation in 2023, the couple reignited their relationship in 2025. Since joining Argentina's national football team, De Paul has become a dynamic midfielder and a close friend of captain Lionel Messi. Currently playing for Inter Miami alongside Messi, De Paul played a pivotal role in Argentina's successful campaigns in the 2021 Copa América, the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and the 2024 Copa América.
