DUBAI – A headline-worthy twist in the world of international tennis. Just 10 minutes ago, the news that is making the rounds on the web leaked out: Jasmine Paolini, the promising Italian star of women’s tennis, was the protagonist of a dream marriage proposal in Dubai , in one of the most exclusive luxury resorts in the Emirates.
According to sources close to the couple, the tennis player’s alleged boyfriend – whose identity has not yet been officially confirmed – would have asked for the champion’s hand with an engagement ring with an estimated value of 7.5 million dollars . A rare diamond, emerald cut, mounted in platinum and surrounded by small sapphires, in homage to Jasmine’s passion for the color blue.
The proposal comes at a delicate moment for Paolini. Only a few days ago, the athlete had left the Roland Garros court visibly disappointed after an unexpected defeat in the round of 16. However, the short vacation in Dubai seems to have changed everything.
According to witnesses present in the panoramic restaurant of the Burj Al Arab , where the romantic scene took place, the man waited for the sunset to kneel down and ask the fateful question. Jasmine, surprised and moved, responded with an emotional yes, amid the applause of the guests present.
The name of the lucky one has not yet been made public, but rumors speak of an Italian entrepreneur in the luxury and fashion sector, linked to international brands. The couple has reportedly been together for about a year, but have kept their relationship away from the spotlight.
This sudden move has sparked curiosity and speculation on social media, where the hashtag #PaoliniEngagement is already trending on Twitter and Instagram. Fans, colleagues and enthusiasts are commenting enthusiastically, with compliments, amazement and a pinch of envy.
Despite the wedding rumors, Jasmine Paolini has yet to make any official statements . Her team has only confirmed that the tennis player is currently on vacation “to recharge her batteries before the grass-court season.” Some industry experts question whether her love life could affect her sports career, but others argue that a stable relationship can become a source of strength and motivation.
A modern fairytale under the golden sun of Dubai : that’s how you could describe this proposal that combines glamour, love and sport. It remains to be seen whether Jasmine will soon share her emotions with her fans – perhaps with a photo of the ring that has already made millions of followers dream.
