Breaking Development
Luka Doncic has officially separated from Anamaria Goltes, marking a significant change in their relationship. The announcement comes as Goltes has filed a petition for child support, highlighting the complexities surrounding their family dynamics.
Immediate Circumstances
The couple shares two daughters, Gabriela and Olivia. Gabriela was born in November 2023, and Olivia followed in December 2025. Since returning to the U.S., Doncic has not seen his daughters, having only spent a total of three months with Gabriela during that time.
This separation follows a series of developments in their relationship, including Doncic’s proposal to Goltes in July 2023. However, the couple’s relationship has faced challenges, particularly after Goltes moved back to Slovenia in May 2025. Doncic has expressed a desire to bring Gabriela to the U.S. after Olivia’s birth, but the logistics have proven difficult.
In an interim injunction, Doncic has sought contact with his daughters, emphasizing his commitment to their well-being. He stated, “I love my daughters more than anything and I’ve been doing everything I can for them to be with me in the U.S. during the season, but that hasn’t been possible, so I recently made the tough decision to end my engagement.”
Reactions and Statements
Doncic further elaborated on the emotional toll of the situation, saying, “Everything I do is for my daughters’ happiness and I will always fight to be with them and give them the best life I can.” He described the experience as a “roller coaster,” particularly noting the significance of being present for the birth of his daughter.
Meanwhile, Goltes has taken steps to distance herself from their past, having deleted all photos of her and Doncic from her Instagram account. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the reasons behind Goltes’s filing for child support and the specifics of the custody battle.
As Doncic continues his career, recently signing a three-year, $165 million contract extension with the Lakers, the focus remains on how this personal situation will unfold in the coming months.
