Every time Messi encounters failure or trouble, people see his family packing up and traveling together to regain their spirits.

Contrary to his cold appearance on the field, in real life, Lionel Messi is a warm family man. He spends almost all of his free time with his small family with his three handsome sons and his wife Antonella Roccuzzo – who has been his childhood friend for 20 years. In his free time, Messi often takes his wife and children to travel and relax all over the world.

Like many other famous players, the Barcelona striker has the habit of renting private jets, private yachts or entire resorts so that his family can fully enjoy every moment together without being affected by hunters. image. The Argentine superstar once rented a 28 m long yacht, with 4 cabins, two bathrooms with a personal chef and 3 cockpit staff, for 7,800 euros per day. However, the yacht is said to not be as “huge” as the CR7 yacht.

After every major tournament or mid-season vacation, the whole family packs up and hits the road without ever missing a member. Messi rarely “goes out” without his wife and children. M10 is also often seen helping his wife take care of and carry the children during these trips.

Even though they have been together for a long time and have two children, it was not until the summer of 2017 that the two had time to get married in their hometown of Rosario (Argentina) and enjoy a sweet honeymoon together, before Antonella gave birth to his son. third son in April this year. Instead of leaving their children at home, the couple sent them “clinging” to their parents to a Caribbean island called St Bart.

Not only did they “carry their entire team”, Messi and his wife also invited the whole Suarez family to go together to add to the excitement. Suarez’s wife Sofia is also very close to Antonella Roccuzzo. Together, they and Fabregas’s wife opened a fashion shoe shop in Barcelona. The trip was very fun and comfortable even with children “attached”. Messi and his wife soaked in the clear blue water, drank pineapple juice and played sandball on the beach.

In order for his family to fully enjoy the trip and avoid being bothered by fans or the press, Messi rented the entire resort and a large apartment of nearly 400 m2 with amenities such as swimming pool, massage room, etc. .

Because they have young children, the couple often has to please “little princes” at children’s play areas. On the birthday of eldest son Thiago, Messi’s family checked into the Disneyland amusement park in Hollywood (California) in October 2016. Disneyland Park is famous for its outdoor games and works that simulate a magical fairy tale world, always making any child fascinated.

The “classic” style of taking photos of Messi’s family when all members are always included. The photo was taken in America when his wife and children followed the Barca striker here for training. People rarely see Messi showing off photos of lavish travel, luxury restaurants, and expensive experiences. On his personal page, in addition to photos during training and matches, the Argentine captain always posts simple and peaceful photos when taking his wife and children everywhere.

Going on vacation with family is also considered “medicine for the heart” whenever Barca’s striker encounters difficulties in his career. In the summer of 2016, after losing the Copa America final and going to court for tax evasion, Messi took his family on consecutive trips to regain balance. The first destination was the Bahamas, then a week later, the whole family “marched” to the beautiful island of Ibiza.

Ibiza is in the Balearic Islands, about 80 km from the coast of Valencia, an autonomous community of Spain. Although the island is small, it is a familiar place for players, especially La Liga strikers, because of its close distance and many resorts, bars, and beautiful beaches.

This trip took place in the middle of the storm when Messi was sentenced to 21 months in prison for tax evasion, but the beautiful scenery here made him feel more comfortable. Messi gave a friendly smile to the paparazzi while sitting on the boat holding his child to help his wife.

Relaxing moments with his partner always help Messi regain balance after bitter failures in his career.
