Tony Romo (born April 21, 1980, San Diego, California, U.S.) is an American professional gridiron football player who emerged as one of the leading quarterbacks in the National Football League (NFL) in the early 21st century.

Many football fans were catching up on Tony Romo's personal life this year, including his marriage to fellow journalist Candice Crawford. Romo and Crawford tied the knot in 2011, and she has been by his side for big events like Super Bowl LVIII ever since. Here's an intro to Mrs. Romo.

His father came from a Mexican American family and worked in construction. His mother worked in a grocery store. Romo spent most of his childhood in southern Wisconsin, where he became a Green Bay Packers fan.
