45-year-old tennis legend Venus Williams gets engaged to 37-year-old actor Andrea Preti, shares never-before-seen engagement photos

Tennis icon Venus Williams has given fans a rare glimpse into her love life, releasing previously unseen engagement photos with her fiancé, Andrea Preti, on Tuesday, December 2. She also revealed that the couple got engaged on January 31, 2025 the first time she has publicly shared details of the milestone.

The announcement has turned the spotlight on Preti, the 37-year-old actor, filmmaker, and model who won the athlete’s heart. Born in Denmark and raised in Italy, Preti first made his mark in the fashion world, modelling for a major Italian fashion house before transitioning into film.

His creative journey later took him to New York, where he trained as an actor at the Susan Batson Studio. Since then, he has broadened his craft to include writing and directing, building a diverse career across Europe and the United States.
