Who is Andrea Preti, Venus Williams' husband? All the details on the model and actor after their five-day Palm Beach wedding

Tennis icon Venus Williams is officially married, stepping into a new era far from Centre Court headlines. The seven-time Grand Slam champion tied the knot with actor and producer Andrea Preti in 2025, ending months of speculation around her personal life.




The romance rumours had first made rounds in July 2024 when the couple was spotted together along Italy's Amalfi Coast. Despite the attention, the pair kept their relationship mostly private, allowing their story to unfold quietly.




Andrea Preti, born in Denmark in 1988, later moved to Italy as a teenager. After beginning his career as a model, he transitioned into acting and producing, studying at New York's Susan Batson Academy and appearing in Italian films, television series, and reality shows.




Engagement speculation peaked in early 2025 after Williams was seen wearing a diamond ring in Europe and later at Milan Fashion Week. The confirmation came in July 2025, when Williams publicly referred to Preti as her fiancé following a match in Washington, D.C.




The couple exchanged vows on September 18, 2025, in Ischia, Italy. Williams later explained that while international paperwork posed challenges, the destination wedding reflected a long-held dream to marry in Italy.




In December 2025, Williams and Preti held a second wedding ceremony in Palm Beach, Florida. The multi-day celebration included a yacht outing, bridal shower, and a courthouse wedding on December 19, chosen to honour Williams' Florida roots.

Reflecting on the Florida ceremony, Preti described the courthouse wedding as uniquely emotional and meaningful, calling it one of the most important days of his life.



As she enters married life, Venus Williams continues to balance her legendary tennis legacy with personal happiness - proving that even global sports icons can choose love, privacy, and reinvention on their own terms.
