A lovely couple making adorable headlines? Look no further than Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas and his Spanish girlfriend, Paula Badosa.

Whether it’s sharing playful moments during practice sessions or cheering for each other from the stands, their bond is palpable.

And this time, Badosa is taking the lead.

Ahead of his match against Japan’s Kei Nishikori, Tsitsipas shared a picture of himself from a pre-match interview. He can be seen in a black T-shirt with a wide and profound smile on his face.

What followed was a series of adorable remarks from the Greek player about her Spanish counterpart. Speaking to the journalist Vicky Georgatou, Tsitispas said, “After two, three weeks I realized that she is a person who has supported me a lot and when she tried to talk to me about meeting I felt how intense the love we have for each other is.

Tsitsipas shared that his bond with the 26-year-old was special and different from all his past relationships. “I feel that she is my person and we understand each other; that puts more value in everything I do and I want her by my side as often as possible.” But, every relationship has its own challenges, and ‘Tsitsidosa’ has experienced them as well.

When Paula Badosa slammed critics for their remarks on the couple

Paula Badosa and Tsitsipas have been dating each other since June 2023, and since then they have often captured headlines for various reasons. And one of these reasons was the criticism they faced for dating each other.

Soon after the two started dating, many critics claimed that Tsitispas had lost his focus on tennis. Responding to these critics, Paula Badosa took a sharp dig at their remarks as she engaged in an interview with the Spanish publication La Vanguardia. “Criticism is never easy to deal with, although sometimes we find it funny because people don’t realize that we are two people who share the same passion,” Badosa said. Earlier, Tsitsipas had also reflected similar sentiments and said that some people get ‘fun’ by attempting to ruin happy relationships.

Detailing the same, Paula Badosa further added, “Sometimes, apart from separately, we also train together, so in the end we train as much or more than anyone else. I could understand this criticism of distraction more if it were with a person from another world, but being two athletes with a very clear objective, what I think is that people don’t even know what they are judging.”

But despite the challenges, the power couple is not shaken. And as the season progresses further, all the fans can await is more such cute moments from the two.
