Daniela Reina: Davinson Sánchez's Wife

Daniela Reina is the wife of Colombian centre-back Davinson Sánchez, who plays for Galatasaray in Turkey and, as of November 2026, is a regular for the Colombia national team. Sánchez proposed to her in Cali in May 2018, and a post on her Instagram account addresses him as her husband, with a caption that begins with the date 19/07/2018.

Not everything about Reina is public, and a lot of what circulates online about her age, job and family is copied from low-quality sites. This guide keeps to what we could confirm from the couple's own posts and from news outlets, and says clearly where we could not find a reliable source. It also covers her husband's career, from Atlético Nacional to the 2026 World Cup, because that is what readers who search for her name usually want next.

Who is Daniela Reina?

Daniela Reina is best known as the partner, and since 2018 the wife, of Davinson Sánchez. She keeps a verified Instagram account under the handle @danielareynad, where she posts travel photos and pictures with her husband. When we opened one of her posts in November 2026 the page showed about 57,000 followers; that number changes, so treat it as a rough guide.

She is not a public figure in the way a model or TV presenter is, and we could not find a profile of her in a major newspaper or magazine. Most of the coverage that exists describes her only as Sánchez's girlfriend or wife.

What is not public

Age and birth date: we could not find a date or year of birth for Daniela Reina in a reliable outlet. Websites that print an exact date and an age do not name a source, so we have removed the date that an earlier version of this article gave.
Job and studies: earlier versions said she holds a business degree and works as a business manager. We could not confirm either claim and have taken them out.
Net worth: no reliable figure exists for her, and we do not repeat the guesses that float around about her husband's wealth either.

How Davinson Sánchez and Daniela Reina got together

The couple's relationship was already public by 2018. In May 2018, Colombian media reported that Sánchez, then a Tottenham player, had proposed to his girlfriend in Santiago de Cali, with friends and family present. Blu Radio's La Kalle reported the story on 22 May 2018, and El Heraldo mentioned it the next day in a piece about his preparation for the World Cup in Russia. At that point nobody had announced a wedding date or place.

An older version of this article said they started dating in 2014, aged 18, and married in Spain in 2018. We could not trace the 2014 start date to a reliable source, so we no longer state it. The Spanish location is not confirmed either, although see the next section for the one clue we found.

The wedding

No major outlet we found reports the wedding date or venue. The best evidence is Reina's own Instagram: a post on her account has a caption that starts with "19/07/2018" and continues "TE AMO ESPOSO MÍO" ("I love you, my husband"), tagging her husband's account. The post carries a location tag for Playa d'es Trenc, a beach in Mallorca, Spain. The post is a video of a bride in a white dress and veil embracing a man in a white suit, and the caption opens with a "back" arrow emoji, so it looks back at their wedding day; no news outlet we found reported the ceremony itself.

Another post on her account, a mirror selfie of the couple, is captioned "Novio mío" ("my boyfriend").

Reina's feed is mostly trips and couple photos, many tagged with her husband's handle. One post is captioned "My Date" and tags Sánchez.

Davinson Sánchez has his own verified account, @daosanchez13, which uses his nickname "Dao". Both accounts are public, so you can follow their posts directly rather than relying on fan sites.

Do Davinson Sánchez and Daniela Reina have children?

We could not confirm any details about children from a reliable outlet or from the couple's own posts, so this article does not name or date any child.

Davinson Sánchez and Colombia

Sánchez made his senior debut for Colombia on 15 November 2016 in a World Cup qualifier against Argentina. He started all four of Colombia's games at the 2018 World Cup, which ended with a penalty shoot-out loss to England in the round of 16. He took third place at the 2021 Copa América and finished runner-up at the 2024 Copa América, where he was named in the team of the tournament.

At the 2026 World Cup he started all five of Colombia's matches. Colombia went out to Switzerland on penalties in the round of 16 on 7 July. After James Rodríguez announced his retirement from the national team on 15 September 2026, coach Néstor Lorenzo gave Sánchez the captain's armband for the friendly against Mexico on 26 September. Colombian outlets reported it as the armband for that match, at least; we did not find an official statement on whether the role is permanent, though English Wikipedia lists him as captain.

Galatasaray is still his club as of November 2026. He stayed in Istanbul after the 2026 World Cup, and the contract extension he signed in August 2025 runs until the end of the 2028/29 season, according to English Wikipedia.
