Rudy Gobert Ends Relationship with Pregnant Julia Bonilla Amid Timberwolves Playoff Run

Minneapolis, MN — Rudy Gobert has reportedly ended his relationship with Julia Bonilla, who is pregnant with their second child. The news came to light on May 17, 2025, as TMZ Sports revealed details of the breakup.

Sources close to several players’ partners told TMZ that the split was unexpected. Earlier this month, Bonilla and the couple’s one-year-old son, Romeo, attended the Minnesota Timberwolves‘ final regular season game, where Gobert embraced them.

Bonilla is said to be considering a move back to her home country of France. However, Gobert is reportedly seeking to keep her and Romeo in the United States until the Timberwolves’ season concludes in order to address child custody arrangements.

Gobert has enlisted a lawyer for assistance in this matter, while representatives are advocating for Bonilla to remain in the U.S. The reasons behind their separation are unclear, especially as Bonilla has consistently supported Gobert, defending him against critics throughout his NBA career.

In March 2024, Gobert shared with TMZ that welcoming his first child was a “blessing.” As the Timberwolves advance in the playoffs, now facing the Western Conference Finals after defeating the Golden State Warriors, all eyes are on Gobert as he navigates this personal situation.
