Relationship history
López and
Daniela Christiansson met in Milan in 2014 and later became a couple. They became engaged in 2021 and have two children, Elle and Lando. In a joint interview in June 2026, they said they still planned to marry but had not yet held their wedding.
Before Christiansson, López was married to
Wanda Nara from 2008 until their separation in 2013. They have three sons: Valentino, Constantino and Benedicto. In a joint interview years later, they discussed the end of their marriage and their renewed friendship as parents.
Italian reporting also linked López to model Melissa Castagnoli in early 2014. That brief connection was reported at the time but was not publicly confirmed by López.
