Who Is Jon Rahm's Wife, Kelley Cahill?
If you are a golf fan, there's a good chance you have heard of Jon Rahm. He's quite accomplished on the putting green and has a solid chance at winning the Masters in April 2021, according to ESPN. It's obvious Rahm trains hard to be the best — he is currently ranked third in the world. If that's not impressive enough, the 26-year-old Spanaird "tied for seventh" at the November 2020 Masters. Better make more room in that trophy case!
In addition to his five PGA Tour event titles, Rahm inked a deal with Callaway Golf in January 2021. Signing the golf phenom was a no-brainer for Tim Reed, senior vice president of global marketing. "Jon is one of the most exciting players in the game, and he's already achieved so much in professional golf at such a young age," Reed told Golf.com. "He's a proven winner, a dynamic personality, and he has a lot of confidence in our equipment. Jon is just an out-and-out competitor."
Top-notch golf equipment sounds great, but we think his love with wife Kelley Cahill is even sweeter. Keep reading for more details about their relationship.
Jon Rahm and Kelley Cahill have been married since 2019
Jon Rahm and Kelley Cahill met in college when they attended Arizona State University as student athletes, per Golf Monthly. Cahill threw javelin and played tennis, and once competed in a match against her husband. "He's killing forehands ... crosscourt zingers, and I'm thinking, 'This can't be right'. He was so good. I was so upset. I was actually mad for a day or two. We have not stepped foot on a tennis court since," she said.
The couple lived together for two years before Rahm put a ring on it. They married in Bilbao, Spain in December 2019. Cahill used to delight her Instagram followers with steamy bikini shots (via The Sun), but she has more important things to focus on now — she's going to be a mom!
Rahm is "excited" for fatherhood, and Cahill's mid-April 2021 due date is fast approaching. But Rahm will leave the tournament at a moment's notice if Cahill goes into labor earlier than expected. "Being a father is much more important than any golf event would ever be, so that's my where my head is right now," he told ESPN. Congratulations to Rahm and his growing family!
Jon and Kelley have two sons
In 2021, Jon Rahm and his wife, Kelley Cahill, were preparing to welcome their first child. As of 2023, the couple are now parents to two beautiful children. In April 2021, the golf player announced his wife gave birth to their son, Kepa, via Instagram. He wrote, "Kepa Cahill Rahm, was born 4/3/21 at 12:15am. Momma Kelley is doing great and recovering. Kepa is also in great health. He is 7.2 lb and 20.5inch, big boy from the Basque Country. Without a doubt the greatest day of my life!"
After welcoming his son, Rahm admitted that becoming a father allowed him to be a better golf player. He shared, "I believe becoming a dad was always going to help me because before I could always have the excuse that getting mad helped me out, helped me win golf tournaments, but right now I'm a role model to my son." Not only would Rahm continue to be a role model to his son, but also to his second child.
Nearly a year after giving birth to Kepa, Cahill and Rahm announced they were expecting their second child. And in August 2023, the couple gave birth to another baby boy. The athlete wrote on Instagram, "Eneko Cahill Rahm born on August 5th, feeling grateful for another healthy boy! Kelley, Eneko and big brother Kepa are all doing great. We have had an amazing last few days soaking in these amazing moments as a family of four."
Kelley Cahill has supported Jon Rahm throughout his career
From the beginning of his career, Jon Rahm has had Kelley Cahill by his side. In a 2016 Instagram post from when Rahm graduated college, he shouted out his then-girlfriend for her support. He wrote, "Also special mention to @cahillkelley for being a great girlfriend and supporting me all semester both on and off the course, she has watched me play more golf than my parents have in the last 4 years Love You." Nearly 10 years later, Cahill remains Rahm's number-one fan.
In February 2023, Rahm posted photos of his wife and children after winning the Tiger Woods' golf tournament. He said, "This golf course is a truly special place and I'm so happy I was able to pull out the win. Thanks to everyone for the support and loved having my family here to enjoy the ride!"
Anywhere that his career takes him, Cahill is right there cheering him on. During one of the biggest moments in his golf career, Rahm won The Masters in April 2023. After his win, the golf star's first stop was giving his wife and kids a big hug and kiss. From an amateur golf career to a professional career, it doesn't look like Rahm will be slowing down anytime soon, and neither is Cahill's devotion toward him.
