"For every door that closes there is always another that opens," Sinner's ex breaks silence as he moves on with Kalinskaya

Jannik Sinner’s ex-girlfriend, Maria Braccini, broke her silence for the first time since the world No. 1 confirmed his new relationship with Anna Kalinskaya. The Italian model spoke about her recent private years as she anticipates a new chapter in her life.

Braccini started dating Sinner in 2020 until the end of 2021 when the couple briefly separated, though they reconciled weeks later. Sinner and Braccini rarely showcased their relationship on social media, except for some interactions from the tennis player on Braccini’s posts or wishing her a happy birthday.

"I never talked about myself on social media, I never shared anything about my private life or what I did," Braccini wrote under her recent post. "In recent years I have worked hard to realize one of my biggest dreams," she said, adding, "I was patient, I studied, I was rejected but I never stopped believing and working to improve myself, silently so as not to have easier roads."

"I made a journey to sign a piece of paper that was really important to me and which marks the beginning of a new and long journey," Maria Braccini added. "Thank you to each of you for all the affection you have always shown me, especially in this last period, I am immensely grateful. Often, reading you, I have had teary eyes, aware of the affection and support you have given me," she said.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you with all my heart," Braccini added. "The photos in the carousel are happy and special moments of this last month. And then… How do you say it? For every door that closes there is always another that opens. See you soon," Jannik Sinner’s ex-girlfriend concluded.
