Luka Dončić is making headlines over his breakup with now-ex-fiancée, Anamaria Goltes, with whom he’s in a custody battle. After the Lakers player announced the end of their engagement on March 10, 2026, multiple outlets reported that Luka had “no idea” that Anamaria filed a petition seeking child support and attorney fees in California. Meanwhile, rumors started swirling about the point guard’s dating life amid his apparent single status — and one major name that popped up was Outer Banks star Madelyn Cline.
So, did Luka move on with Madelyn, or are they just friends? Here is everything we know so far about Luka’s breakup from Anamarie and the rumors about him and Madelyn.
Was Luka Dončić Married?
No, Luka was not married, but he and Anamaria were engaged. The former couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged in 2023. They went on to welcome their eldest daughter, Gabriela, later that year, and Olivia in late 2025. Luka reportedly traveled back to Slovenia for Olivia’s birth.
Why Did Luka Dončić & Anamaria Goltes Break Up?
It’s unclear why Luka and Anamaria broke up, but he released a statement in March 2026 about ending his engagement.
“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,” Luka’s statement, obtained by ESPN, read. He added, “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.”
Is Luka Dončić Dating Madelyn Cline?
Neither Luka nor Madelyn has publicly commented on the dating rumors, but the two were allegedly seen together in Los Angeles and connected on social media, according to multiple outlets.
The pro basketball player has been living in L.A. since playing with the Lakers, and, naturally, speculation over his dating life has circulated online.
As of now, it does not appear that Luka and Madelyn are dating.
