Paula Badosa is one of the most famous Spanish tennis players of her time, and her private life has garnered just as much attention as her career.
The former world No. 2 has suffered from significant injuries, a high-profile relationship with Stefanos Tsitsipas and a hard breakup that she later admitted was very painful.

Recent reports indicate that Badosa is now single. Her most notable partnership was with Greek tennis player Stefanos Tsitsipas, with whom she became part of a prominent couple in the tennis world after announcing their relationship in 2023.
Fans affectionately nicknamed the duo “Tsitsidosa” and the two briefly parted ways in May 2024, but they reunited weeks later. They eventually separated again in 2025.

The breakup resurfaced in June 2026 when Badosa spoke about the emotional challenges of the relationship. She explained that if “toxic things” are present, a breakup can be a lot more difficult than a typical breakup.
Who Are Paula Badosa’s Parents and Siblings?
Badosa was born in Manhattan on November 15, 1997 to Spanish parents Mireia Gibert and Josep Badosa. Her parents worked in fashion while living in New York, before the family moved to Spain when Paula was seven.
She spent her childhood in the area of Begur (Girona) and then, at 14, she transferred to Valencia to continue her tennis development. Her love for fashion also played a role in her interests, as Badosa once wanted to pursue a career in modeling like her parents.
There is little information available about her siblings from public sources, and Badosa has tended to keep her family life out of the public eye.
Who Is Paula Badosa’s Coach?
Badosa is currently under the tutelage of Spanish coach Pol Toledo. The partnership has been a part of her work to get back from injuries and find consistency on the WTA Tour.
Toledo also got caught up in the fallout from Badosa’s departure from Tsitsipas in 2026. Following comments from Tsitsipas’ family regarding the previous relationship, Badosa’s coach publicly defended the Spanish star.
What Is Paula Badosa’s Ethnicity?
