Nadal and Perelló were married in 2019 after dating for many years. Nadal's public relations firm said it would not comment on his personal affairs, when asked by The Associated Press.
Nadal's welcome to the world of fatherhood came two weeks after his emotional farewell to friend and rival Roger Federer during his last match. The 36-year-old Nadal has won a men's record 22 Grand Slam titles.
