quickly became a star in the 2023 NFL season — and his girlfriend, Hallie Aiono, has been rooting for him from the sidelines.
The Los Angeles Rams wide receiver has been dating his girlfriend since at least 2021 when he was a student at Brigham Young University. The pair have posted snaps of each other on their Instagrams, including photos of them attending a Los Angeles Lakers game together in January 2024.
When Nacua scored his first touchdown as a professional in the NFL, Aiono posted a now-viral TikTok of herself crying as she watched the special moment on TV.
So who is Puka Nacua’s girlfriend? Here’s everything to know about Hallie Aiono and her relationship with the NFL star.
She is of Polynesian descent
Aiono grew up in Arizona with three siblings. Her brother, Alex Aiono, opened up about their Polynesian background in an interview with Hawaii magazine in 2017, explaining that their mom is American while their dad is half Samoan and half Maori.
That’s where the Polynesian roots are for my family,” he said of his dad. “Aiono is a Samoan last name. There’s a ton of Aionos in the Samoan culture. It’s like the last name Smith.”
Like Aiono, Nacua is also Polynesian, with his grandmother and mother immigrating from West Samoa, per The Salt Lake Tribune.
