The couple’s journey from college sweethearts to a family of four – they have two daughters – paints a picture of a profound and enduring love. Let’s take a closer look at her life and their path together.

Where did Adams and Villarreal meet and get married?

Villarreal first met the man who she would marry at Fresno State University back in 2012. While Adams was making his mark as a star player for the Fresno State Bulldogs, Villarreal was there, witnessing his early rise. Their college romance laid the foundation for a lifetime partnership. Two years after their initial meeting, Adams entered the NFL, drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 2014, with Villarreal by his side.

The couple took their relationship to the next level in 2017 when Adams proposed during a trip to the Bahamas. The proposal, said to be cleverly disguised as a photoshoot, was somewhat like a scene from a Disney movie, complete with breathtaking views and a heartfelt declaration of love. The following year, Davante and Devanne exchanged vows at the scenic Pebble Beach in Monterey County, California, and the couple then enjoyed a romantic honeymoon on the Greek island of Santorini.

What children do Adams and Villarreal have?

Their family grew with the birth of their daughters – Daija Leigh in 2019 and Dezi Lynn in 2022 – and then with the arrival of Louis, their Pet pitbull. Devanne often shares glimpses of family life on social media, including milestones of their young daughters, including birthdays and days out. More insights from her online profile shows us that the three girls closest to Adams are keen followers of his career, often seen attending his Games, made much easier following his move to Las Vegas in 2022.

Davante once described Devanne as the “best mom ever” (she once said he was the “best girl dad”) and she is said to be a significant source of strength and inspiration for him.

Adams is one of the highest-paid wide receivers in NFL History, with his latest contract, signed back in 2022, valued at $140 million over five years. He will feature in the new Netflix series Receiver, which tells the stories of five exceptional stars in that position.
