"I love my daughters more than anything and I've been doing everything I can for them to be with me in the U.S. during the season, but that hasn't been possible, so I recently made the tough decision to end my engagement. Everything I do is for my daughters' happiness and I will always fight to be with them and give them the best life I can."
"Sources familiar with Dončić's situation told ESPN that the petition was filed in California -- where one of Dončić's daughters was only with him there for three months last spring, and his other daughter has never been to the state. Dončić had 'no idea' Goltes had filed the petition."
"Sources familiar Dončić's situation added that Dončić, who signed a three-year, $165 million contract extension with the Lakers in August, has always provided for his family and pays for his daughters' expenses 'without limitation.'"
Luka Dončić, a 27-year-old Lakers star, announced his separation from fiancée Anamaria Goltes and disclosed an ongoing custody dispute regarding their two daughters. Dončić stated he ended the engagement after being unable to have his daughters remain with him in the U.S. during the basketball season. Goltes filed a petition in California seeking child support and attorney fees. Sources indicate Dončić was unaware of the filing and has consistently provided financial support for his daughters without limitation. The couple, who dated since 2016, welcomed their first daughter Gabriela in November 2023 while Dončić played for the Dallas Mavericks, and their second daughter Olivia was born in December 2025 in Slovenia.
