Andrea Preti is an Italian actor, model, and filmmaker who has recently captured public attention as the romantic partner of tennis legend Venus Williams. Born in Denmark in 1988, Preti moved to Italy during his teenage years and began his career in fashion before transitioning into acting. He studied at the Susan Batson Academy in New York City, a prestigious institution known for training emotionally expressive performers.
From Indie Films to Fashion Week
Preti’s artistic portfolio includes roles in European films such as Girls to Buy and Temptation, as well as appearances in the television series A Professor. He also wrote and starred in In Loving Memory, a film based on a script he penned at just 19. His modeling career has taken him to international runways, including Milan Fashion Week, where he’s often seen alongside Williams.
A Romance Born on the Amalfi Coast
The couple was first linked in July 2024, when they were spotted vacationing together in Nerano, Italy. Their relationship quickly gained attention, especially after Williams posted a photo from the Bahamas in January 2025, calling Preti “the best company.” By February, engagement rumors swirled as Williams was seen wearing a diamond ring during a tennis practice in Rome, with Preti cheering her on from the sidelines.
A Supportive Presence Courtside and Online
Preti has been a visible and enthusiastic supporter of Williams’ tennis comeback. He frequently shares Instagram stories celebrating her victories and expressing admiration for her strength and joy. His posts often include heartfelt captions and emojis, reflecting a deep emotional connection and pride in her achievements.
