The player's families are mentioned sometimes, but it happens quite often at big national team games (Euros, World Cup). E.g. Modric's wife and kids were shown many times at the 2018 World Cup. Eden Hazard's family, and his parent's history, was also mentioned multiple times at that same World Cup.
It was even more prominent with Kasper Schmeichel, the Danish goalkeeper, whose father is a former goalkeeper. The father was shown extremely frequently celebrating his son's saves, and after a penalty shootout where Kasper performed very well, the comments were exactly "look at how much his dad is celebrating, he must be really proud of his son".
