Tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas looks to have moved on from his "complicated" on-off relationship with Paula Badosa. The 27-year-old recently took to social media to post photos from a holiday break to Namibia, which featured Kristen Thoms.
Described as a 'tennis player turned model', according to Spanish publication Marca, the American is believed to have ended her tennis career after competing on the collegiate level. The pair could be seen having dinner and enjoying walks in the Southern African country.
Tsitsipas opting to feature their romance on social media has come less than a month after his mother, Julia, discussed his relationship with fellow tennis star Badosa which she described as a "complicated". The sport's power couple first went public with their relationship in 2023 but initially ended it a year later.
They announced only three weeks later that they had rekindled their romance, which lasted until last July when they ended it for a second and final time. Speaking to Serbian outlet Telegraf, the Greek ace's mother said: "Their relationship was complicated from beginning to end.
"On the one hand, she distracted him from tennis, and on the other hand, the breakup hit him hard. I was a professional tennis player and I thought that tennis players should not react so emotionally. Their relationship was not ordinary, everyday. They were in a long-distance relationship. Both entered the relationship traumatized by injuries. Paula didn't play at all when they started dating. But at no time was there a possibility that Stefanos would end his career because of their love."
The decision to end their relationship last summer came off the back of them both being knocked out in the first round of Wimbledon. A source told Spanish magazine ¡Hola!: "The breakup just happened. They both lost in the first round in London [at Wimbledon] and everything has come together for them.
"[They] were going through a rough patch professionally, with injuries, and that affected their relationship. They're not well, of course. It's normal for any couple that breaks up. They had started the year very well, and their dream has been shattered. It's a healthy breakup and there were no third parties or family influences, as is starting to be said.
"[They] have struggled to make their relationship work, but ultimately it hasn't worked out. Ghosts from the past have returned, marked by the injuries they have both suffered. [The split is] between adults who loved each other very much, and it was a mature decision."
It was a difficult 2025 for the tennis stars when it comes to injuries withTsitsipas admitting he considered retirement because of a lingering back injury. He's since made a return to the court and takes on Shintaro Mochizuki in the first round of the Australian Open. Badosa has already earned her passage to the second round of the Grand Slam following her straight sets victory over Zarina Diyas.
