However, as luck would it, the British star has been stripped of her German marque. With speculations surrounding the worrisome update rising, a Porsche spokesperson reportedly said:

“While we do on occasion loan Emma a car, this is very much on an ad hoc basis”. Furthermore, the German company is known for withdrawing their motorcars from celebrity ambassadors now and then… if concerns about their return on investment rise. Despite signing the lucrative deal, and additionally promoting the company when presented with an opportunity, Raducanu could be on the outs with the German car manufacturer.

A spokesperson insisted that the Briton is a “global brand ambassador for Porsche. There have not been any changes within our successful partnership since it started in 2022. We are very happy with our partnership.” However, Raducanu’s injury-plagued phase will do no favors for her lucrative deal with Porsche.
