A few days back, the WNSL star Trinity Rodman went official with tennis player Ben Shelton. Fans couldn’t get over their elevator selfie in which she leaned to kiss him on the cheek. The official couple is now moving to the next stage of their love life. Public Appearances! It also means supporting each other in the field. This time, the tennis star made the first move.

The Washington Spirit badly wanted to get back on the winning track after losing the last game against Kansas City Current. The chance came on Friday night, March 28, as they played against Bay FC. The Spirit won the game 2-0, thanks to a first-half brace by Ashley Hatch. Shelton, thus, couldn’t have chosen a better game to drop by. “hey Ben Shelton, welcome to the NWSL 👋,” wrote NWSL on their Instagram page as they shared a photo of the adorable duo sharing a hearty hug.

What made the gesture by Shelton even sweeter is that he was there to support his partner even though he has not had the best time of late in his own sport. Ben Shelton won 14 consecutive matches in opening rounds at ATP Masters 1000 and Grand Slam events since the 2024 season started. But Coleman Wong sunk him in the Miami Open 2nd round by 7-6(3), 2-6, 7-6(5).

Wong’s win over Ben Shelton was nothing short of an upset. Standing at No. 128 in the PIF ATP Rankings, the Hong Kong national is the second-lowest ranked man to make it to the third round in Miami in a decade. “I always trust myself to play in these big stages,” said Wong after the win.

Shelton was hit with the upset just days after he became the youngest American quarter-finalist at the Indian Wells since Andy Roddick in 2004. Overall, the last few days have been a rollercoaster ride for the young tennis star. And what could be a better way to slow things down and unwind than spending time with that special someone?

Ben Shelton and Trinity Rodman make hearts swoon

Just a day before the tennis star came to the NWSL game, Trinity Rodman sent fans into a frenzy by posting a photo of them together. Dressed in a gray hoodie with a green cap, she was clicked looking into her BF’s eyes while smiling. She even literally called, “Dibs 🤭“ on the tennis star. Earlier, their elevator selfie had rocked fans.

It was just another exchange on the long list of teasing, flirting, and hard/soft launches on social media. Around 10 days back, Rodman posted a video on Jorjiana and GloRilla’s ILBB2 trend. But she played it romantic. The soccer player replaced the Duke Dennis from the lyric, “They say shooters shoot… Duke Dennis, what’s up with you?” with 3 blanks.

Ben Shelton also replied with the most obvious hint, a T with 6 blanks. Fans were fast enough to complete the word “Trinity.” The Rumor mill was back at work. Finally, they accepted their feelings and moved on to the next stage of their relationship. It’s sweet. Now that the tennis star has supported his girlfriend, the tennis world is gearing up to welcome her to the games. We can see that happening soon.
