Sorana Cirstea, a Romanian tennis star, is said to be dating a billionaire’s son. Many Romanian websites claim that Ion Tiriac Jr. is dating Sorana. The two haven’t posted any Instagram postings for one other, although they have previously chatted via Instagram Stories. The Romanian businessman is the son of Ion Tiriac, a former ice hockey and tennis star with an estimated net worth of $1.2 billion. The two have a mutual passion for fitness, with Ion Jr sharing countless photos of himself working out.
Cirstea has recovered from a dismal first-round elimination at the Australian Open to compete in the Abu Dhabi Open. She overcame Maria Sakkari to reach the quarterfinals, and now Cirstea will play Daria Kasatkina.
Sorana Cirstea Husband: Is The Tennis Star Married?
Sorana Cirstea, a Romanian tennis player, does not have a spouse and is not married. In 2017, the tennis player openly dated a fellow tennis player named Santiago Giraldo. Sorana had kept her dating life private since their breakup, but that changed last year. The tennis player is said to be dating Ion Tiriac Jr., the son of former tennis player and businessman Ion Tiriac.
Sorana attracted backlash last year, in July, after publishing a post titled “Make men masculine again.” “Make women feminine again.” Many tennis fans saw it as a transphobic message. But Ion Tiriac Jr. defended the tennis star in an Instagram post titled “2023 in a nutshell.” I want everyone to know I am straight! So feel free to compliment me on my wonderful courage.” Also last year, the billionaire’s son sent a congratulations message when Sorana reached the US Open quarterfinals.
He wrote: “28 years of practice. More than 25 major injuries. No Christmas, birthdays, or New Year’s Eve. Over 1.000.000 kilometers traveled. A life full of tears, suffering, uncertainty, and difficult setbacks! And then, somewhere along the way, this soulful grin makes everything worthwhile! Congratulations, @soranacirstea. It is long overdue and well-deserved!” Ion Jr. has two boys from his former engagement with Ileana Lazariuc, whom he often shows on his Instagram account. Surprisingly, Ion and Sorana have not made a single Instagram post for each other.
Sorana And Santiago Giraldo’s Dating Life
The two tennis players dated for three years, beginning in 2014. Tennis writer Ben Rothenberg broke the word that the two were dating. Many tennis fans were delighted for this duo since, without a doubt, they looked amazing together. Unfortunately, their romance did not go the distance. Sorana and Santiago went pro in the same year, 2006, with a three-year age disparity.
And, if Sorana continues her tennis career, Santiago has chosen to retire in 2020. Santiago is one of Colombia’s top-ranked tennis singles players. He peaked at 28th in the world rankings. Since their breakup, the two have not been linked to anyone in the tennis world or elsewhere. Though they never mentioned why they split up, it is assumed it was to concentrate on their different jobs. Santiago took a hiatus from tennis in 2017, the same year their relationship ended. Giraldo claimed he was putting his career on hold for a variety of reasons. He stated that he wants to focus his life on tennis.
Santiago was in bad form at the time, having won just 10 of the 27 main draws. Since retiring, Santiago has formed the Santi Giraldo Foundation to promote tennis in Columbia. Santiago recently wrote on Instagram that someone had captured his eye, and he had considered dating them. However, the former tennis star remarked that he feels reinvigorated and is developing every day.

In one of her posts, Sorana said that she grew up in a home where men are gentlemen and women are treated with great respect and care. She said that on Women’s Day, the males in her family purchase flowers and gifts for all of the women and take them out to supper. During an interview, Sorana said that her parents had always supported her tennis profession. She said that they would support her amid defeats and continue to motivate her for larger and better things.
Cirstea also mentioned that her family has always been enormous followers of tennis star Steffi Graf, watching all of her tournaments. Her mother is on Facebook, although she isn’t active. Sorana’s brother, Mihnea, is a lawyer who, according to Romanian media, used to be an athlete before retiring due to injuries.
