Julian Edelman

Julian Edelman — Julian Edelman is one of the all-time greats. The NFL wide receiver – who won three Super Bowls with the New England Patriots – is considered one of the most productive players in post-season history. When the Pats make the playoffs, Julian is on fire, as he lights up the scoreboard with jaw-dropping receptions. In Super Bowl LIII, he was named the MVP for making 10 catches for 141 yards receiving, more than HALF of his team’s total yardage. Though, his professional highs have come with some devastating lows. During a 2017 preseason game, he tore his ACL, resulting in a lost season that had him watch his team lose Super Bowl LII to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Off the field, Julian was connected with Brazilian model Adriana Lima from 2016 to 2017. In July 2016, he was named in a paternity suit filed by Swedish model Ella Rose. The two had dated causally and in November of that year, she gave birth to their daughter, Lily. Since Lily’s birth, Julian has accepted her as his child and has worked hard to raise her right.

Julian Edelman Contemplates Life

Julian Edelman Contemplates Life — ‘Fatherhood is such a huge challenge especially with [Ella’s] profession and my profession being able to give my daughter the time and energy that she desires and that she needs,” he told Haute Living in 2019. ‘There’s a fine line. You have your craft, and you’re working towards being the best you can possibly be, something that you’ve been working towards your whole life since you were 8 years old, and then all of a sudden, your priorities change. You’re not living for yourself anymore, you’re living for your little girl now. That’s how my parents lived for me, so that’s all I really know.’
