Rudy Gobert has reportedly called it quits with his pregnant girlfriend, Julia Bonilla, and kicked her out of his home along with their 1-year-old child.
TMZ Sports reported on Friday that the couple was no longer together after Bonilla announced she was pregnant with their second child. Sources close to several wives and girlfriends of players on the Minnesota Timberwolves told TMZ Sports the break-up was unexpected, especially when Bonilla and the former couple's one-year-old son, Romeo, attended the T'Wolves' final regular season game and was embraced by Gobert last month.
Bonilla is reportedly looking to move back to her home country of France, but Gobert wants her and Romeo to stay stateside once the T'Wolves season is over in order to figure out child custody. Gobert has reportedly gotten a lawyer, while representatives are pushing for Bonilla to stay in the United States.
It's unclear what led to their separation, as Bonilla has been highly supportive of Gobert over the years, even defending him against fans who criticized his play on the court. In March 2024, Gobert told TMZ Sports that it was a "blessing" to welcome his first child into the world.
Gobert is currently on a playoff run with the Minnesota Timberwolves. They just advanced to the Western Conference Finals after defeating the Golden State Warriors in five games. They are waiting to see who they will face in the next round between the Denver Nuggets and the Oklahoma City Thunder.
