Fans spot Luka missing as Anamaria’s Instagram memories raises questions

Luka Doncic’s longtime partner, Anamaria Goltes, caught fans’ attention after sharing a decade-in-review post that did not include the Lakers star.

Goltes, 27, posted two Instagram photo carousels last week as part of the popular “2016-2026” trend. Across both posts, she shared 38 photos. None of them featured Doncic, and fans quickly noticed. The comments soon filled with questions and speculation.

Goltes has been with Doncic since 2016, and the couple got engaged in 2023. They also share two daughters. Because of that, the missing photos made some followers curious, even though Goltes gave no sign that anything was wrong.

She framed the posts as a personal look back. “2016-2026. A decade of good times, hard lessons, and everything in between,” she wrote on Instagram. “Plenty of ups and downs, but I wouldn’t change a single moment.”

The first post focused on her professional life, featuring modeling shoots and posed photos. The second post felt more personal, with selfies, travel pictures, and moments with her children. She turned off comments on the second post earlier, but later she enabled them.

The reaction came fast on the first post. Some users asked why Doncic did not appear. Others pushed back and urged calm.

“Why does it feel like this is a break-up moving on post?” one user wrote in the comments.

Another fan added, “It’s about her, it’s good to see how is she doing.You look amazing.”

Goltes offered no follow-up. She did include one clear detail. She wore her engagement ring in the opening photo of the second carousel. The ring stood out to many viewers.

Goltes and Doncic met as kids in Croatia at age 12. They started dating in 2016. Doncic proposed on July 7, 2023, in Slovenia. The date matched his jersey number, 77.

The couple welcomed their first daughter, Gabriela, in December 2023. They added a second daughter, Olivia, in early December. Doncic stepped away from the Lakers for two games to return to Slovenia for the birth.

He announced Olivia’s arrival on Instagram on Dec. 6. “Olivia!” he wrote, with flower emojis. NBA players and Lakers teammates replied with congratulations. LeBron James wrote, “Congrats Brate!” The Lakers account added purple and gold hearts.

For now, Goltes keeps the focus on her own memories. And fans keep reading between the lines.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
