Tennis star Aryna Sabalenka declared this week that new boyfriend Georgios Frangulis was the love of her life.

This came after the happy couple had taken to Instagram to share multiple images featuring their public displays of affection, after enjoying a holiday following Sabalenka's withdrawal from Wimbledon.

Belarusian Sabalenka - who is No 3 in the current WTA rankings - pulled out of this summer's Championships at SW19 hours before she had been due to take on Emina Bektas in the first round of the ladies' singles on July 1.


The 26-year-old's decision to pull out was due to a shoulder injury. 'I tried everything to get myself ready but unfortunately my shoulder is not cooperating,' she explained.

Sabalenka has since been making the most of her time away from the court by going on a trip with her partner, Brazilian health food tycoon and stock car driver Frangulis, 35.

On Tuesday evening, Sabalenka shared five photos via Instagram - including one of Frangulis kissing her next to a mirror - alongside the caption: 'Out & about'.

Earlier on Tuesday, Frangulis uploaded a video and eight photos - nearly all of which featured Sabalenka - alongside a 'world' emoji.

Sabalenka commented on the post in Portuguese, writing: 'My love of my life'.

Frangulis is the founder of superfood brand Oakberry, which is one of the sponsors of the Haas F1 team. 

Sabalenka had previously been dating ice hockey star Konstantin Koltsov, who tragically died aged 42 in Miami in March.
