American tennis star Tommy Paul’s fiancée, Paige Lorenze, recently set social media abuzz with a striking photo dump. While the post delighted fans, one unexpected inclusion left Paul puzzled, prompting him to question Lorenze about it later. The pictures also earned praise from World No. 2 Jannik Sinner’s girlfriend, Laila Hasanovic.

Paul is currently competing at the 2026 Australian Open and, as in most of his previous campaigns, is accompanied by Lorenze in Melbourne. After publicly confirming their relationship in 2022, the couple spent more than three years together before getting engaged in July 2025, ushering in the next chapter of their journey.
A fashion creator and social media influencer, Lorenze earned her degree from Parsons in 2021 and went on to debut her lifestyle and clothing brand, Dairy Boy, the same year. She has been a constant presence in Paul’s life, regularly accompanying him to tournaments and cheering him on from the stands.
The social media influencer has never kept her life low-key, frequently offering glimpses of it online. In her latest Instagram photo dump, perhaps from Melbourne, she turned heads in a white cropped blouse with a deep V-neckline and ruffled trim. She completed the look with chic black sunglasses, black pants, and a white jacket.

But to the surprise of many, including Paul, Lorenze also included a somewhat tongue-in-cheek, internet-savvy element in her photodump. The final slide of the post featured the famous ‘Winking Monkey’ meme as Lorenze added a touch of humor in her post.
However, Paul didn’t understand why it was included and asked in the comments, “Wait what’s w(ith) the monkey?” Lorenze later replied, “exactlyyyy.” Moreover, Sinner’s girlfriend also reacted to the pictures, writing, “cutesy.”
Sinner and kept their relationship out of the spotlight as speculation emerged in mid-2025, fueled by shared appearances during the hard-court swing. True to Sinner’s guarded approach to his private life, they remained discreet until October, when he subtly acknowledged Hasanovic during his Vienna Open title run. Notably, Hasanovic was seated alongside his family in the final.
Both Sinner and Paul are progressing steadily at the ongoing Australian Open. The Italian has advanced to the second round, while the American has moved into the third. According to PFSN’s exclusive Interactive Simulator, Sinner holds a commanding 97% chance of defeating James Duckworth to reach the third round. In contrast, Paul faces a more challenging task, with Alejandro Davidovich Fokina given a 61% likelihood of advancing.
