Since then, the two have been seen together on a number of occasions, but they have indulged in their relationship to become the target of journalists.
The Romanian tennis player shared her wedding plans with the media a few days before her wedding took place.

Meanwhile, after losing to Ukrainian Elina Svitolina, who is also married to French tennis player Gael Monfils, in the fourth round of the 2021 US Open, the 2019 Wimbledon champion may return to action in Indian Wells.
Since suffering a left calf injury during the second round of the Italian Open in Rome against Angelique Kerber, the player who has won two Grand Slam titles has not been able to find the best form.
Although she performed quite well in the Rogers Cup, Montreal, Simona Halep was overwhelmed against Danielle Rose Collins in the opening match. Even in Cincinnati, he was forced to withdraw from the duel against Jessica Pegula due to a thigh injury.
