Rafael Nadal is fully enjoying his time in his hometown of Mallorca, Spain. Following his retirement last year, Nadal seems to giving all of his energy to his family, going on vacations, and attending some important events. This past weekend, Nadal joined his family at his cousin's wedding, the soccer player Miguel Ángel Nadal, appearing in photos laughing and having a great time alongside his family members.

The photos were shared by Nadal's sister, Maribel, who shared a look at their family celebrations on her Instagram. The post was made up of various photos showing the Nadal family unit having a great time, showing Nadal alongside his cousins and grandparents. 

The images show him dressing elegantly yet laid back for the occasion, wearing a black suit with a white button-up underneath. To go along with the wedding's beachy vibes, Nadal opted out of wearing a tie, unbuttoning the top buttons of his shirt. 

In the case of his sister, Maribel Nadal wore a long printed dress with various maroon patterns on it. "Family," she captioned the post in Catalan. "Quin dia més guapo."

Earlier this month, Nadal opened up about his feelings regarding his retirement, appearing to be in a positive and fulfilling moment in his life. 

"I feel fine. Perfect to be honest. Happy. I'm trying to adapt to a new stage in my life that, for now, I'm handling pretty well," he said at the Mundo Deportivo awards, where he received an acknowledgment due to his impressive career as an athlete. 

"To be honest, I'm happy with how things are right now. The last couple of years were difficult so it helps me not to miss it a lot," he said.
