Vili Fualaau (born June 26, 1983) is a Samoan-American who became notable when, at the age of 13, he had sex with his 34-year old teacher Mary Kay Letourneau. Letourneau was arrested and charged with statutory rape. The sexual encounters resulted in two daughters, prison for Letourneau, and a long-standing court order forbidding them from seeing each other.

In 2002, Fualaau's mother filed a civil suit against the Highline School District and the city of Des Moines, Washington for not protecting him from Letourneau. The suit was dismissed.

On August 6, 2004, 2 days after Letourneau's release, Fualaau, aged 21 years, applied to the court to lift the no-contact order, which was granted. Vili Fualaau and Mary Kay Letourneau were married on May 20, 2005.

Vili co-authored the book Un seul crime, l'amour with his mother, Soona.
