10 high profile couples who broke up

#4 Maria Sharapova – Sasha Vujacic

Maria Sharapova, often considered the ‘most eligible bachelorette’ in sports by adoring fans, stunned them when she announced she was dating Slovenian basketball player Sasha Vujacic in 2009. Vujacic, who was the envy of Sharapova’s many admirers, got engaged with the Russian diva in 2011 after going out with her for 2 years.

While Sharapova’s career was blighted by numerous injuries during her time with Vujacic, the Slovenian was a mainstay of the NBA title-winning LA Lakers in 2009 and 2010. To the surprise of sports aficionados, Sharapova and Vujacic split in 2012 with busy international schedules being cited as the reason by both stars.
