In this article, we take a deep dive into who she is and what we know about their relationship.

Who is Dario Saric dating? Nuggets star’s relationship status revealed

Dario Saric has been dating Karla Pušeljić for over a decade. The two have mostly kept their relationship under wraps. Karla isn’t someone who enjoys being in the public eye, and Dario has always been private about his personal life, so not much is shared about their day-to-day life. They’ve been together for a while, but they don’t post much about each other on their social media accounts.

However, there has been speculation at times about the couple’s relationship status, mainly due to the limited public appearances. Dario hasn’t posted any pictures of Karla on his social media profile and Karla used to be active through her Facebook account once upon a time. But in recent years, she became quite inactive, and with her Instagram account not set to public viewing, this had led some fans to wonder if the two might have split.

According to some local sources, the relationship between Dario and Karla hasn’t always been smooth sailing. They’ve had their share of challenges, including a brief breakup in 2017. During that time, reports claimed that Karla had moved back to Zagreb, and the two were separated. However, the couple managed to work through their issues and came back together, stronger than ever.

Although it’s not yet been reported by the mainstream English media, some Croatian media outlets like Vecernji shared around 2021, that the couple was expecting their first child. Soon after the initial reports, it was said that the couple had welcomed a baby boy named Niko. It was around the time, coincidentally, that Dario took a few days off from his team, the Phoenix Suns, which was assumed to be with Karla during the birth. The two were excited about this next chapter in their lives.

The couple clearly values their privacy, so fans don’t see much of them together online either. But it’s evident that Karla is supportive, standing by Dario as he continues his basketball journey. Together, they have created a lasting bond that has stood the test of time, and they continue to support each other in every step of their journey. Now, as they’ve probably begun the adventure of parenthood, fans can only wish them the best as they continue to navigate life together!
