Mito Pereira found love with Antonia Prida.

The Chilean golf pro proposed to his longtime love in January 2021, and the couple legally tied the knot in December 2021. However, Pereira and Prida waited until January 2022 to celebrate their marriage with family and friends.

The couple are currently expecting their first child together. Prida announced the special news on Instagram in February 2024.

So, who is Mito Pereira's wife? Here's everything to know about Antonia Prida.

She and Pereira started dating as teenagers

Pereira began playing golf at a young age and attended IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. He eventually took a break from boarding school for two years and returned home to Chile, where he met his future wife.

"I started dating Antonia when I was away from playing, so I know she doesn't just like me because of golf," he told Golf Magazine in 2022. "It's just because I'm handsome."

While they haven't shared exactly when they first began dating, photos together on both of their Instagram profiles go back as early as 2013.

She and Pereira were in a long-distance relationship for a time

Pereira attended Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, where he played one year of college golf during the 2014-15 season. In 2015, he decided to leave the university and turn pro.

The team's coach, Greg Sands, told Golf Magazine that he knew Pereira was homesick for Chile during his single year on the team because "he had a serious girlfriend back home, and he was very close to his family."

She and Pereira got married in 2021

On Jan. 5, 2021, Pereira announced his engagement to Prida by posting a selfie with his new fiancée. Prida posted a photo from the same outing the following day, showing off her ring.

The couple legally married in December 2021, followed by a larger celebration with family and friends at the Parque Lo Arcaya in Chile in January 2022. Their special day included nods to Pereira's career, including a golf cart ride and walking under an arch of golf clubs held up by guests.

She is an artist

Prida's main passion is art, which she showcases on her social media platforms.

"I am happy to be here showing you what I like to do the most; art," Prida captioned a post on her art Instagram account. "I am convinced that art is an experience that invites us to feel, beyond what we can understand logically."

She added, "My art is inspired by the immensity of nature and the feelings that the connection with it generates in us."

In another post displaying her art hanging on the wall with neutral décor around it, she described her process of reaching an "ethereal feel" after "playing with tonal values and feathered edges."

She resides in Florida with Pereira

Pereira and Prida live together in Jupiter, Florida. The southeastern town on the Florida coast is quite popular among golfers, with Golf Digest claiming Jupiter has "solidified its standing as the center of the golf universe." According to the outlet, the seaside city has an estimated five dozen "pro golfers of varying status" living there.

She and Pereira are expecting their first child

In February 2024, Prida announced her pregnancy on Instagram. She and Pereira are currently expecting a son.

"Waiting for Leo," she wrote alongside photos of her growing baby bump.

She caddied for him at the 2023 Masters Par 3 Contest

On April 6, 2023, Prida stepped in as Pereira's caddy at the Masters Par 3 Contest in Augusta, Georgia. This event always takes place on the Wednesday before the Masters Tournament, and it's tradition for wives to caddy for their husbands.

Prida later called it an "incredible experience" on Instagram.
