During an interview, Rafa Nadal spoke clearly about his current life with Xisca Perelló and his son.
Through a new and revealing interview, Rafa Nadal has revealed the change his life has experienced with Xisca Perelló since they became parents. “The way of living has changed,” this well-known Spanish athlete has stated.
There is no doubt that the Mallorcan tennis player has not only been one of the most emblematic figures in national sports. He has also become a true reference at the international level.
Thanks to his dedication and competitive spirit, Rafa Nadal has, at 39 years old, won 22 Grand Slam titles, including 14 Roland Garros. This record has taken him to the top of both national and global sports.
However, just nine months ago, Xisca Perelló’s husband officially announced his retirement from professional tennis. Despite his farewell to competition, his name will always be linked to the history of sports in Spain.
Now, in an interview on the podcast Con mucho de, Rafa Nadal has opened up like never before about this new stage. This is when he has revealed how his life has changed since the arrival of his first child.

During his interview, Rafa Nadal has had no problem publicly acknowledging that his routine has changed significantly since he stepped away from the tennis courts. Among other things, because of the arrival of his first child with Xisca Perelló:
“I try to organize my day so I can spend time at home. I like to pick up the child from school and I try to schedule most of my meetings in the mornings.”
According to Rafa Nadal, the arrival of his child did not mark a turning point in their lives, since he always envisioned himself being a father with Xisca Perelló.
However, what he has made very clear is that “the way of living has changed a little bit.” “You have a slightly different responsibility,” the athlete has added.
Meanwhile, Rafa Nadal has also spoken about other topics related to his life, including his diet and the new hobbies he has taken up after retiring from tennis.
Xisca Perelló’s husband has confessed that golf has become one of his great passions. In fact, this sport allows him to disconnect without putting his physical condition at risk. “After 15 years, I’ve started playing soccer again,” he has also clarified.
Regarding his diet, Rafa Nadal has admitted that he has always been aware of keeping healthy habits. However, he has never been excessively strict with his eating:
“There have always been better times, worse times. I allow myself treats almost daily, I’ve never been very strict and unfortunately I really like milk chocolate. I like fish, here we make rice with fish and soup with fish.”
