Derrick Henry‘s touchdowns haven’t been limited to making defensive backs look foolish. The 6’3″, 247-pound titan has also secured well in his personal life with the relationship with his longtime girlfriend Adrianna Rivas. As King Henry barrels towards an uncertain free agency future at 30 years old, his true enduring legacy may be the family he’s built with the woman who has been by his side through it all. This is an inside look at the real-life romantic victory formation for the hard-hitting Titans star. 

Who is Adrianna Rivas?

While Derrick Henry dominates on the gridiron as the “King” of running backs, his true source of strength comes from his longtime girlfriend Adrianna Rivas. She is a Texas native, who has been by Henry’s side through the highs and lows, providing unwavering love and support that propels the $56 million man’s greatness.

Rivas attended the University of Texas and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Public Relations. Adrianna, unlike many other WAGs, doesn’t have an enormous social media presence. Her account boasts a little over 9000 followers and is rather private about her matters over there. Occasionally, she shares pictures of her family and her gameday outfits.

Rivas is an avid dog lover and has two furry family members. Her first dog, Nala, is a Golden Doodle. She added another puppy to the family in 2018, a rottweiler mix named Nino.

Adrianna and Derrick started dating each other in college in 2016. In late 2019, the pair announced their pregnancy and welcomed a beautiful daughter named Valentine on May 18, 2020. The duo has come a long way—From being college lovebirds at the University of Texas to proud parents celebrating their daughter Valentina’s 3rd birthday on May 2023.

Apart from this, Adrianna is the middle child between brothers Daniel and Adriel. She comes from a close-knit family with parents Simona and Joe who recently celebrated 30 years of marriage. She’s Henry’s biggest cheerleader on gamedays, beaming with pride from the stands alongside her siblings and parents. Adriel even joins Henry for workout sessions, while Daniel is the founder of a workout clothing store.

In the fickle world of the NFL, Henry has found his forever partner in the Odessa native. Their relationship transcends the game’s brutality, built on a foundation of trust, respect, and adoration for one another. On one hand, Henry has established a renowned career for himself. On the other hand, Adrianna is also not far behind as she has built her own business line and works hard each day to achieve her goals.

How did the Odessa Native carve her path?

While she may be known primarily as Derrick Henry’s girlfriend, but Adrianna Rivas is far more than just a WAG (Wife and Girlfriend). Rivas parlayed her work ethic into earning a communications degree at the University of Texas Arlington. But she was no ordinary graduate resting on her laurels – her hustle and magnetic charm immediately opened doors at major corporations like Marriott and Technifax Office Solutions, allowing her to swiftly climb the corporate ladder.

However, the ambitious, free-spirited Rivas wasn’t content simply collecting a paycheck. The entrepreneurial fire burned brightly within her, driving Adrianna to launch her very own lash extension business called Attraction by Adrianna. She currently offers four different sets, including services to extend length, increase volume, add depth, and more. She also shows off her handiwork on Instagram, including her hair and makeup.

Today, the former businesswoman has taken on her biggest role yet as Henry’s partner and mother. Adrianna seamlessly juggles parenting, managing their household, and still finding time for her passions like raising her beloved dogs Nino and Nala.

So while Henry’s on-field exploits grab the headlines, never underestimate the power of having a dynamic, well-rounded woman like the Odessa native Adrianna Rivas as your greatest teammate. She’s the total package in her own right.
