Paula Badosa opens up about public attention on her relationship with Stefanos Tsitsipas

Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas previously parted ways and announced the breakup on social media; however, it was for a brief period of time. They later got back together and the Greek spoke about the same in an interview with SDNA.

"It seemed like a mountain to combine these two and I made the decision to take a break. After two-three weeks, I realized that she is the 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 said.

Following this statement, it got a lot of media attention, as Paula Badosa was asked questions regarding it in the press conference ahead of the 2024 French Open. Showing her dismay regarding the attention, the player said:

"He already explained and I have nothing else to say, I mean, it's our private life. I think one of the things that we didn't like is that it was very public, so now we want to keep it to ourselves. We know it's not going to be easy because we are two public people so people will ask, but we want to keep it more to ourselves."

Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas will both compete in the upcoming US Open.
