Nicole Artukovich, the wife of Liam Stewart and daughter-in-law of rock legend Rod Stewart, has once again demonstrated her deep affection for her ancestral homeland. An American of Croatian heritage, she was seen cheering for the Croatian national football team in Dallas alongside her husband.

Artukovich shared numerous photos on Instagram wearing the iconic checkered jersey, expressing her excitement. "Experiencing a goal at the World Cup together with my Croatians was a dream come true! I love our country, our pride, and our boys! Best 48 hours," she wrote, showcasing her passionate support for the team.

Her engagement extended beyond static posts. Through Instagram stories, she captured the vibrant atmosphere, sharing videos of herself enthusiastically singing Thompson's hit "Lijepa li si" with fellow fans, using the hashtag #BogiHrvati (God and Croats). This act further solidified her strong connection to Croatian culture and traditions.

Although her family has lived in the United States for a long time, Nicole consistently emphasizes the significance of Dubrovnik and Konavle to her. Her relationship with Liam, which began attracting attention early on, culminated in a lavish wedding ceremony in Dubrovnik in 2024. They exchanged vows at the Church of St. Ignatius, with the celebration continuing at the magnificent Lovrijenac Fortress.
