Despite the repeated backlash, the couple recently posted a video of themselves being extremely public with their affection at a Harry Styles concert on their relationship’s Instagram account “tsitsidosa”, marking their determination to openly acknowledge their love for each other.

Responding to the criticism, Stefanos Tsitsipas took to his main Instagram account to answer questions about why they share their relationship so openly. He explained that although he hasn’t talked much about personal matters before, he doesn’t care about what others think when it feels right and natural.

The Greek said, “The truth is that, I haven’t really been too vocal about stuff like this or exposing myself I guess too much, but when you know, you don’t really care. You know, it feels right, it feels natural. There’s no shame. So it’s just like family. It’s just as if you are sharing moments with your family. It’s absolutely the same,”
