Armin van Buuren celebrates 15 years of marriage with Wife Erika van Thiel

Armin van Buuren marked a special milestone on September 18, celebrating 15 years of marriage to his wife, Erika van Thiel. The world-renowned DJ shared a heartfelt post, expressing his gratitude and love: “Lucky to be married to this beautiful soul for 15 years today. I love you to the moon…! ❤️❤️❤️”

The couple tied the knot in 2009 after nearly a decade of dating. Armin proposed in grand fashion, setting up a surprise during his DJ set at the Royal Opera House in Sydney. As the music played, a sailboat cruised by the harbor with a banner reading, “Will you marry me?” sealing a moment neither would forget.

In July 2011, the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Fenna. Two years later, just before taking the main stage at Tomorrowland in July 2013, Armin shared the exciting news that Erika had given birth to their son, Remy.

While Armin’s career has placed him in the global spotlight, Erika has preferred to keep a lower profile. Their private life remained out of the public eye until 2018 when Armin appeared on Verborgen Verleden to explore his family history. Despite his fame, Armin van Buuren frequently expresses his deep appreciation for Erika, crediting her as a central force in his life. He has also opened up about nearly stepping away from touring, emphasizing how her support helped him find balance during challenging times.

We wish Armin and Erika continued happiness as they move forward together into the next chapter of their lives.
