Aryna Sabalenka, the fierce world No. 1, is making a splash off the court as much as she dominates on it. The 27-year-old Belarusian tennis star recently went public with her new relationship with Georgios Frangulis, a Greek‑Brazilian entrepreneur who’s reportedly five times wealthier than Emma Raducanu—one of Sabalenka’s major rivals at the current Wimbledon.
Frangulis, 36, is the founder and CEO of Oakberry, a fast-growing acai‑bowl empire launched in 2016. With over 700 outlets across 40+ countries, his brand’s success has made him a multimillionaire—reportedly worth around $75 million . Meanwhile, Raducanu’s net worth is estimated to be about £12.8 million (~$16 million), putting Frangulis at nearly five times her fortune . That financial gap has sparked more headlines than Sabalenka’s current Wimbledon run.
But it’s not just about money. The couple’s nine-year age gap—he’s born in 1988, she in 1998—has also piqued interest. Frangulis, who studied law in São Paulo before venturing into business, sees himself in tune with his Greek heritage, despite growing up in Brazil . Sabalenka, on the other hand, is laser-focused on tennis, fighting for Grand Slam glory and Wimbledon dominance.
The couple went Instagram-official in May 2024 following a difficult period in Sabalenka’s life, after the tragic passing of her former boyfriend, former ice-hockey star Konstantin Koltsov, in March 2024 . Now, Frangulis often supports her courtside—whether at F1-graced events like the Emilia‑Romagna Grand Prix or on her tennis journey .
So why the buzz? Because amid the tennis serve and volley action, personal stories often steal the spotlight. The financial disparity and age difference are adding layers to the public’s fascination with Sabalenka’s life off-court. And with high-stakes matches—including her showdown against Emma Raducanu—framing the narrative, every headline counts.
Crucially, this relationship has brought a newfound sense of stability and public presence to the tennis star. Frangulis isn’t just a partner—he’s a business titan whose empire success mirrors Sabalenka’s ambitious ascent in the tennis world. Their partnership is turning into a power-couple storyline: tennis meets tech-nutrition mogul, with serious star power and serious wealth.
As Wimbledon unfolds with the plot of Sabalenka vs. Raducanu, expect more curiosity around Sabalenka’s personal life. But one thing’s clear: whether they’re winning matches or garnering media attention, this duo is playing a long game—on and off the court.
