Norwegian tennis sensation Casper Ruud is preparing for the most exciting chapter of his life fatherhood. The 25-year-old, who has been engaged to Maria Galligani since November 2024, is expecting his first child with his longtime partner.
A Love Story That Keeps Growing
Ruud and Galligani have been together since 2018, building a strong and supportive relationship. Their engagement, announced on social media, featured a heartfelt message from Ruud: “Can’t wait to marry you 
.” Now, they are embracing an even greater milestone starting a family.
Casper Ruud: More Than Just Tennis
Beyond his achievements on the court, Ruud has always been admired for his humility and sportsmanship. Raised in Bærum, Norway, he idolized Rafael Nadal and developed a game built on resilience. He has two sisters, Caroline and Charlotte, and shares a passion for golf with his father, former pro tennis player Christian Ruud. In 2022, his peers honored him with the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award.
Though his recent match against Denis Shapovalov at the DAL Open didn’t go his way, Ruud remains a true champion—both in tennis and in life. As he steps into fatherhood, his journey is one to celebrate.
CASPER FOREVER
