Who Is Jon Rahm’s Wife? - Meet Kelley Cahill

Jon Rahm has been one of the best players in the world for more than five years now, with the Spaniard finishing 2021 as the world number one and securing multiple Majors during that time. 

Rahm's first Major title arrived at the US Open in 2021, while his second was achieved in dramatic style at the 2023 Masters. He has also clinched nine regular PGA Tour trophies - including the 2020 BMW Championship - and a couple of LIV Golf team wins since his move over to the 54-hole league in December 2023.

Success for Rahm has not been contained to just the golf course, however, with he and his now wife, Kelley Cahill, getting married in 2019 and welcoming two children into their lives since. Rahm and Cahill also recently announced ahead of The Masters they are expecting a third child in 2024.

Who Is Jon Rahm’s Wife?

Kelley Cahill-Rahm was born in February 1994 in Lake Oswego, Oregon before later moving to Scottsdale, Arizona with her family. 

Having enrolled at Arizona State University to study biology and global health, Cahill ended up meeting Rahm at a Halloween party, with the San Diego Union-Tribune reporting that she wore a referee costume and he wore a SWAT uniform.

While at ASU, Cahill competed on the track & field team as a javelin thrower under the school nickname of the Sun Devils.

She was also apparently a very capable tennis player, with Tennis Recruiting Network - a website that looks at junior tennis - listing her as a two-star recruit after playing at Chaparral High School in Scottsdale.

Both Jon and Kelley are fiercely competitive, and on one occasion, the pair played a tennis match against one another. Speaking about the match, Kelley said: “he’s killing forehands … crosscourt zingers, and I’m thinking, 'This can’t be right'. He was so good. I was so upset. I was actually mad for a day or two... We have not set foot on a tennis court since.”

After graduating from college, they lived together for two years before tying the knot in December 2019, at a ceremony in Bilbao, Spain, near Rahm's hometown of Barrika.

In an interview with GOLF.com, Rahm admitted that he had designed his future bride’s wedding ring. “So, [golfer] Brian Stuard’s fiancée or wife is a jeweller and is a really good friend of ours. So Kelley was talking to her. She knew what Kelley wanted, but I had my own ideas. Basically, with her help, I designed the ring.

“She wanted to pick the diamond, but I knew what I wanted. I designed what’s around the ring. It’s supposed to look like a crown and had an engraving inside. I had a big part in it. It wasn’t exactly what she wanted, but she loves it. It’s a little more personal like that."

Rahm also shared the part he was most looking forward to ahead of the big day. He said: "I think the part I’m looking forward to – in Spain, it's going to be a Catholic wedding, a church that I basically grew up going to with my grandma, and it's a really special place for all people of the City of Bilbao.

"And I think when I see those doors open and see her walking down the aisle for the first time, I think it's going to be what I'm looking forward to the most, that first moment of seeing her walk down the aisle."

Cahill has been regularly seen supporting Rahm all around the world, with the American in attendance for each of the Spaniard's Major victories as well as his other golfing successes.

After being married since 2019, the pair announced in November 2020 that they were expecting their first child. The due date for the child was actually supposed to clash with the Masters, with Rahm stating that: “If anybody’s thinking of a betting on me at the Masters, maybe think about it twice because there’s a chance I have to just turn around and leave that week.”

Thankfully for Jon, his son, Kepa, was born a week before the Masters, meaning he could play in the tournament. In an Instagram post, Rahm said "Kepa Cahill Rahm, was born 4/3/21 at 12:15am. Momma Kelley is doing great and recovering. Kepa is also in great health. He is 7.2 lb and 20.5inch, big boy from the Basque Country. Without a doubt the greatest day of my life!"

In August 2022 they welcomed their second child into the world as well, Eneko Cahill Rahm. The Spaniard said in an Instagram post: “We have had an amazing last few days soaking in these amazing moments as a family of four. Now time for the playoffs!”

Rahm announced that baby number three was due in 2024 shortly before he defended his crown at The Masters. In an Instagram post at the end of March, Rahm said: "Officially moving to zone defense, baby Rahm #3 coming soon!"
