Danny Amendola's GF Grace hard launches relationship with ex-Patriots star after months of him being rumored with SI Swimsuit Model Xandra Pohl

Former NFL wide receiver Danny Amendola celebrated his 40th birthday on Sunday. Not only did he celebrate a milestone birthday, but his relationship status was also confirmed.

Amendola received birthday wishes from his girlfriend, Grace Montgomery. She shared a carousel of photos of their time together in an Instagram post. She also expressed her love for the former New England Patriots wide receiver.

"Happy birthday to the best! Love you!🤍" Grace Montgomery wrote.

The Instagram post celebrating Amendola's birthday marks a significant milestone in the couple's relationship. He had kept details of his personal life out of the public eye throughout the last year amid rumors of relationship with Xandra Pohl.

Pohl, a DJ and Sports Illustrated model, was in the live audience of "Dancing with the Stars" last fall sitting next to Amendola's mother and cheering him on during the competition. Amendola never addressed the rumors of a possible relationship with Pohl.
