Puka Nacua exploded onto the scene for the Los Angeles Rams during his rookie season, and in 2025, he’s on track to deliver the best performance of his career. Through just four games, Nacua is leading the NFL in receiving yards with 503, more than 100 yards ahead of the next closest receiver.
As his star continues to rise on the field, fans are increasingly curious about his life off it. Here’s everything we know about dating life.
Who Is Puka Nacua Dating in 2025?
Puka Nacua has been dating Hallie Aiono since at least 2021. They met at Brigham Young University and often share glimpses of their life together on Instagram.
Their relationship first caught widespread attention in 2023, when Nacua scored his first NFL touchdown. Aiono posted a now-viral TikTok showing herself crying as she watched the milestone on TV. The NFL reposted the sweet moment on their Instagram, writing,
“Puka Nacua’s girlfriend Hallie watching him score the game-winning touchdown will have you in your feels.”
Like Nacua, Aiono is of Polynesian descent. She grew up in Arizona with three siblings. Although Aiono has held multiple jobs since her teenage years, she is not currently working as the couple prepares to welcome their first child.
Aiono made the announcement in May 2025Â by sharing a heartfelt carousel of photos and a video featuring the two of them. Alongside the post, Aiono included an emotional caption reflecting the whirlwind of emotions that come with such a life-changing moment:
“You were something we always dreamt of, but I have never been so afraid. I wasn’t planning for this now, but I know your timing is divine. There are a lot of ‘why’s’ in life currently, but I know that for the rest of my life, you will be my ‘why’. I can’t wait to love you forever, my sweet boy.”
While Nacua has largely kept his personal life under wraps, starting a family has always been part of Nacua’s dream. In a past interview with “Join The Lobby,” he shared his long-term vision: building a big family with five children and retiring by age 30 to fully embrace that life, an uncommon plan in the NFL, where most players aim to prolong their careers as much as possible.
If his dream is truly to retire early and focus on family life, the next two seasons will be crucial. He’ll need to give everything he has on the field to earn the kind of deal that makes that vision a reality.
