Last week, the Miami Hurricanes surprised many of us with yet another victory in the NCAA tournament. Defeating the No. 1 Houston Cougars in the Sweet 16, they defeated the No. 2 Texas Longhorns in the Elite Eight of the tournament. Led by coach Rodney Terry, the Longhorns were one of the favorites to win March Madness this year.

However, Rodney currently happens to be in the spotlight for some other reasons as well. We’ve found that many people have been wanting to know about his girlfriend who he often posts on his Instagram. Well, we’ve got you covered.

While Rivers’ Instagram is set to private, Terry’s girlfriend’s bio describes her as a businesswoman, stylist, designer, model, teacher, and mother. Vielka, the owner of Mercer Salon, was born in Nicaragua in 1975. Prince Elias and Eden Elias Ewing are her two sons from a previous marriage. Eden, who was born in 1997, played power forward for Purdue during the 2017-18 NCAA campaign. He was later transferred to Texas Southern University for his final two college seasons. He currently plays for the Brazilian basketball club, Minas Belo Horizonte.

However, we’re unaware of when the two started dating. Similarly, details of River’s first marriage and Rodney Terry’s past dating life have yet to be revealed. Matter of fact, we don’t think their previous relationship should be discussed as well. After all, everyone has a past, and everyone has the right to move n from it.

Looking at the way their relationship is going, we believe the couple might get soon married. But again, they have not revealed any information about their plan of getting married.

Therefore, it seems Rodney Terry and his girlfriend seem to be very happy with each other. Vielka shows there to support Rodney during his game. They have continuously encouraged and supported one another throughout their careers. We wish them nothing but good luck for their upcoming days. It would be wonderful to see them getting married sooner and spending the rest of their lives together.
