In an emotional confession, the star fullback opened up about how their relationship began and how his feelings grew over time.
“When I first met Maria Glinellis, I’ll admit she wasn’t what I expected,” Tedesco said. “My mind was fully on footy and I wasn’t looking for anything else. But Maria was different. She had this spark about her. She was confident, full of energy, and wasn’t afraid to speak her mind.”
The Roosters captain explained that while he was initially focused entirely on his rugby league career, Maria’s personality quickly caught his attention. What started as a simple connection gradually turned into something much deeper.
“At the time, I wasn’t sure how things would go,” he continued. “But the more I got to know her, the more I realized how special she is. She supports me in ways people don’t see — through the tough games, the pressure, and the long seasons.”
Tedesco added that Maria has become one of the most important people in his life, giving him balance away from the intensity of professional sport.
“Now she’s not just my partner — she’s my best friend. She keeps me grounded and reminds me there’s more to life than the game. I’m grateful every day that she walked into my life.”
Fans of the National Rugby League quickly reacted to the heartfelt confession on social media, praising the couple for their strong bond and genuine love. Many supporters described the message as “beautiful,” “honest,” and “inspiring.” 💫
The touching words offer a rare glimpse into the personal life of one of rugby league’s biggest stars — proving that behind the tough competitor on the field is a man deeply grateful for the woman beside him.
