Tennis star Rafael Nadal got engaged to his long-time girlfriend Xisca Perello last May and is set to marry her later this year. Nadal proposed her while on a holiday to Rome in May last year, reported Spanish magazine Hola.

But the couple preferred to keep it private for the first eight months of their engagement. Nadal and Perello, who has a degree in business, have been together for 14 years and she currently works at the Rafael Nadal Tennis Academy in Mallorca, Spain.
