Her current stats in swimming is not known however we like to believe that Isabella hasn’t given up on swimming.

Where Is Isabella Pujols Today? Is She In A Relationship?

As of today, no update regarding her condition has been revealed. So, being an adult with Down syndrome, Isabella must be still under the care of her parents. With the fact that her mom and dad are divorced now, we believe that, at the moment, Isabella resides with her mom Deidra.

Further, about her being in a relationship, it’s not unusual for a 25-year-old lady to have a love life. And also a case like Down syndrome never is a barrier for an individual to choose their special one. So, assumptions can be made that she may be in a relationship with her boyfriend but we are not so sure until any authentic source reveals her dating status.

Is Isabella On Instagram? 

According to several sources, Isabella is on Instagram with the username, @isabella.rosario24. But, while scrolling through her Insta picture, it seems like the Insta account doesn’t belong to Albert Pujols’ daughter, especially when we compared it with the pictures of Isabella that are shared by Albert on his social media account.

Her famous father Albert Pujols has shared her pictures on his Facebook which has 668k followers. Just once, Isabella appeared on her dad’s Instagram which has 359k followers in total.

Isabella’s Father is a rich man

Though Isabella is in her 20s, there is no update on her professional life. So, it’s obvious that her net worth is also under the wrap. Meanwhile, her famous father has an estimated fortune of $170 million as of 2023.
