Paula Badosa Wins Fans Over With a Sweet Food Confession That Proves Her Endless Love for Stefanos Tsitsipas
In tennis, “love” might mean zero on the scoreboard—but off the court, it’s anything but. Just ask Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas, affectionately known to fans as Tsitsidosa, one of the sport’s most beloved power couples.
From romantic beginnings at the 2023 Italian Open to a brief split and a heartfelt reunion in 2024, their relationship has been anything but ordinary. And now, Badosa is melting hearts again with a playful Instagram confession that celebrates not just Greek cuisine—but her Greek boyfriend too.
During a fan Q&A on Instagram, Badosa was asked to name her favorite Greek food. Rather than choosing a traditional dish like souvlaki or moussaka, she posted a selfie with Tsitsipas, cheekily captioned:
“All 🤤🤤🤤 Greek food and Greek men are the best 😜.”
Cute? Absolutely. Cheesy? Maybe. But it’s the kind of sweet, spontaneous moment fans can’t get enough of.
Their love story began in true rom-com style. Tsitsipas once revealed he made a secret bet with himself: if Badosa won her second-round match in Rome, he’d message her. “I said to myself, ‘If she wins, I’ll DM her.’ She did—and I sent a simple ‘Congratulations,’” he shared (via People). That single message kickstarted their relationship.
Since then, their chemistry has been on full display—from social media banter and affectionate interviews to mutual efforts to embrace each other’s cultures. Badosa is learning Greek (she was once caught practicing the word agapi, meaning “love,” on a plane), while Tsitsipas is taking Spanish lessons. Though, as he joked, there’s a twist:
“Paula only speaks Catalan around me—it’s her native language. So learning Spanish is… complicated.”
Beyond the laughs, there’s genuine depth to their connection. Tsitsipas recently shared how much he enjoys cooking together, saying,
“I love cooking. I have an amazing girlfriend who’s started cooking for me. We have such a good time just chatting while we cook.”
And Badosa has spoken candidly about how Tsitsipas supported her through tough times, calling him her “light” during darker moments.
Their story proves that love doesn’t just survive the pressures of the tour—it can thrive. Whether they’re on the court, in the kitchen, or just sharing food pics online, Tsitsidosa keeps giving fans a reason to believe in romance.
