British tennis player Emma Raducanu, after a sensational victory at the US Open 2021, experienced a serious decline in her career. Emma spent a long time recovering from injuries and showed poor results on the court. Currently, 21-year-old Raducanu is only ranked 135th in the WTA rankings, but she should improve her position in the near future.
Emma has made a successful start to her performance at Wimbledon. In the first two rounds she beat Mexican Renata Zarazua (7-6, 6-3) and Belgian Elise Mertens (6-1, 6-2). Next, Raducan will meet world number nine Maria Sakkari. Emma is considered an outsider, but Sakkari, despite her high rating, often fails at Grand Slam tournaments and has only a few times made it past the third round (the last case was at the Australian Open 2022). So Emma’s chances of success in her confrontation with Maria are quite realistic.

She has raided a billion-dollar fortune. Raducanu has found a rich boyfriend and is living a carefree life.
Raducan is greatly helped by the active support of the British public in London. His matches traditionally sell out and celebrities often visit the stands.

Romeo Beckham, son of legendary English footballer David Beckham and his famous wife Victoria, was particularly supportive of Emma in her first Wimbledon matches. The 21-year-old Romeo followed in his father’s footsteps. He has not yet achieved David’s level of success, but the young striker is trying hard to make his way into the first team of Premier League club Brentford.
Romeo was seen in the stands during the Raducanu – Sarasua match. The footballer actively supported Emma. On social media, he posted a photo of Raducanu during the kick-off, adding an emoji in the form of a pair of hearts.

Beckham also appeared at the Raducanu-Mertens match. And this time he attracted even more attention. Romeo sat very close to tennis player Renee Zhai’s mother. The broadcast captured the moment when Zhai tried to take her place in the stands and at the same time collided with Beckham. An awkward situation was created, but Zhai still walked past Romeo. They responded to this moment with a smile.

Of course, the media immediately began to write about a possible romance between Raducanu and Beckham. However, for now Romeo can only be called a devoted admirer of Emma, and everything else is just speculation and rumors.
At the very least, we can say that Romeo likes tennis and knows Emma. His father is also interested in this sport. David Beckham regularly attends Wimbledon. He was also at the Raducanu – Sarasua match, but sat far away from his son. I also watched the match between the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz and the Estonian Mark Layal. There is no doubt that David will appear at this Wimbledon more than once, especially during the decisive stages of the tournament.

It is worth noting that Raducanu and Beckham are now free. In early June, Emma broke up with her boyfriend Carlo Agostinelli. They dated for just over a year. The young people stopped following each other on social media. It was Raducanu who initiated the separation because she blacklisted her ex-lover’s account.
Agostinelli, 23, is the son of American billionaire Robert Agostinelli, who once tried to buy the Liverpool football club, and Dior’s PR director Mathilde Favier. It is worth noting that Carlo also played football, but he played at an amateur level at Stanford University.

Romeo has been dating British model Mia Regan since 2019. In February 2024, the couple announced their separation; since then, Beckham has not started a relationship with anyone. The fact that Beckham puts hearts under the post with Raducanu and sits next to his mother in the stands at Wimbledon could theoretically indicate the closeness between the footballer and the tennis player, but it is too early to draw definitive conclusions.
