The 2024 tennis season was a thrilling ride, filled with surprises and joyful moments. For Felix Auger-Aliassime though, the season was a mixed bag. Once ranked No. 6 in the ATP standings back in 2022, Felix reached the finals of the Madrid Open this year, where he faced Andrey Rublev but fell short. He wrapped up his season at the Basel tournament and is eager for fresh beginnings on the court.

In his personal life, Felix tends to keep things private. Fans know his long-term girlfriend, Nina Ghaibi, but the couple rarely shares details on social media. They confirmed their relationship in March 2019 and have spent five wonderful years together, sharing glimpses of their love on special occasions.

However, the end of the 2024 season brought an exciting surprise for their followers: Felix and Nina are now engaged! He posted a heartwarming photo of them dressed in white against a sunset backdrop, captioned, “Couldn’t have dreamt of a better forever 🥰❤️💍.” Fans flooded their post with messages of congratulations. Meanwhile, Tennis reporter Mario Boccardi also shared his excitement on X, stating, “Felix Auger-Aliassime is about to get married! 😍”

Nina Ghaibi is a Croatian citizen born in the U.S., currently residing in Huntersville, North Carolina. At 24, she has lived in several European countries, thanks to her diverse background—her father is Moroccan and her mother is Croatian. This multicultural upbringing has fueled her passion for horses, and she is a professional equestrian who has competed in events like the 2017 Moroccan Royal Tour. Her favorite horse, a brown male with a white stripe on his face, represents her lifelong love for riding, which began in childhood.

Nina and Felix Auger-Aliassime started dating in March 2019 after being introduced by her cousin, Ajla Tomljanović. Their relationship has flourished, with Nina playing a key role in Felix’s journey on the ATP Tour. The couple often shares their adventures on social media, including moments with their adorable Pomeranian, Timmy. Nina was there to celebrate Felix’s first ATP title in Rotterdam in February 2022. He defeated the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas with a triumphant 6–4, 6–2, and all the while, Nina was cheering him on as he made history. She later posted a picture of Flelix holding the trophy on her Instagram account, with the caption, “Happy V Day💘 but most importantly so happy and proud of you💪🏽🏆❤️” 

Felix frequently expresses gratitude for Nina’s support. In March 2021, he marked two years together with a heartfelt post: “Well, I’m pretty happy our paths crossed two years ago. Two years of love and happiness. To many more in the future.” He also acknowledged her importance during International Women’s Day that same year. Now that the couple is embarking on a new journey together, seeing them on this adventure in life is exciting. What are your thoughts?
