Who is Rudy Gobert’s girlfriend? Closer look at 3x All-Star’s partner amid pregnancy news

Rudy Gobert recently announced on Instagram that his girlfriend Julia Bonilla is pregnant with their first child. The Minnesota Timberwolves center captioned the heartwarming news with a simple “Legacy.” Bonilla was just as concise with her excitement when she commented, “The better half of us.”

Gobert has been keeping his relationship with Bonilla extremely private. There have been reports that the two have been spending time together in Minnesota so they must have been an item for a while already. Thus the three-time All-Star coming out with something regarding his life off the court is quite a surprise to many.

Like Gobert, Julia Bonilla is French. She is also the co-host and editor of a blog/podcast called Journey. On the show’s profile, she mentioned that she is an artistic director in the morning and concentrates her time on her podcast at night.

The episodes on Bonilla’s podcast are mostly about life as a journey. She offers candid opinions about things that directly affect her. Her mantra is “Life can be beautiful, it’s all a question of point of view.” She gives off an authentic, simple and blessed vibe when she talks on her podcast.

With the arrival of the baby, Julia Bonilla can happily say along with Rudy Gobert that life is indeed beautiful.
