Helen Svedin 

Meeting Luis Figo and Family Life

While at the height of her modeling career, Helen met Portuguese footballer Luís Figo in 1996 at a Joaquín Cortés show in Barcelona. The two quickly formed a close relationship marked by mutual respect and admiration. Unlike many high-profile couples, they have maintained a largely private and stable partnership.

The couple welcomed their first daughter, Daniela, in 1999. Their second daughter, Martina, was born in 2002, followed by Stella in 2004. Despite the arrival of their three children, the couple did not marry until 2006. Their wedding was featured in the June 2006 issue of Italian GQ Magazine.

One possible reason for the delayed wedding was Figo’s demanding football career, which saw him transferring between clubs. After playing for FC Barcelona, he joined Real Madrid in 2000. In 2005, following the end of his contract, he moved to Italy to play for Inter Milan, reportedly in part due to Helen’s influence.

Life in Milan and Current Endeavors

Today, Helen Svedin and her family reside in Milan, Italy. She has stepped back from her active modeling career to focus on family life and is content as a homemaker. Meanwhile, Luís Figo has transitioned from professional athlete to football executive and currently serves as an ambassador for Inter Milan.
