Former world No. 26 Camila Giorgi has married Argentine coach Andreas Pasutti in Argentina, surprising followers with a wedding announcement that follows closely on the heels of her recent pregnancy reveal. The ceremony marks the latest development in a period of rapid personal change for the 34-year-old, who stepped away from professional tennis in 2024.
Two weeks ago, Giorgi shared photos indicating she was pregnant, first hinting at the news on Valentine’s Day with a social media post alongside Pasutti. She later confirmed she was 11 weeks pregnant by publishing ultrasound images and video. At that stage, she was not visibly showing, which is consistent with early pregnancy.
The wedding, announced today, shifts the immediate focus from confirmation of motherhood to a formalised partnership. Pasutti, born in 1995, is a former professional player whose highest ATP singles ranking was No. 1562. He now works as a coach. The couple have divided their time between Italy and Argentina in recent months.
The sequence of announcements — pregnancy first, marriage shortly after — underscores a clear transition away from the volatility of tour life. Giorgi’s final professional appearance came in 2024 at the Miami Open, where she lost in straight sets to world No. 2 Iga Swiatek.
Since her retirement, Giorgi chose to settle in Argentina and was also reported to have been in a relationship with Argentine lawmaker Ramiro Marra, a political figure close to President Javier Milei, but their relationship ended at the beginning of 2025. The former top-30 player is the daughter of an Argentine father — himself of Italian descent — who coached her throughout her entire professional career.

Career overview and competitive record

Giorgi turned professional in 2006 and built a reputation for aggressive baseline tennis defined by flat, early ball striking. She reached a career-high ranking of No. 26 and won four WTA singles titles. Her most significant title came at the 2021 National Bank Open in Montreal, where she defeated former world No. 1 Karolína Plíšková in the final, winning the most important title of her career in a WTA 1000.
At Grand Slam level, she reached the Wimbledon quarterfinals in 2018 and advanced to the fourth round of the US Open in 2013. She made the third round of the Australian Open five times and reached the fourth round at Roland Garros in 2022. She also progressed to the quarterfinals at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021.

Retirement and controversy

Giorgi’s retirement in 2024 was abrupt and came without an extended farewell. There was no staged send-off tournament, and the announcement followed a relatively limited competitive schedule. The decision ended an 18-year professional career that had featured periods of inconsistency but also notable wins over top-ranked opponents.
Her exit was followed by controversy in Italy related to unpaid rent on an apartment and outstanding financial matters, which drew media attention shortly after she left the tour. Reports indicated legal and administrative complications surrounding her departure from the country, adding an unexpected layer of scrutiny to the end of her playing career. Giorgi subsequently relocated, spending increased time outside Italy.
In subsequent public appearances and social media interactions, she made clear that her decision to leave the sport was final. She indicated there were no plans to return to professional competition, reinforcing that her departure was a deliberate and permanent step rather than a temporary break.
Since leaving the tour, Giorgi has focused on personal projects and life away from the weekly demands of international travel. Alongside her tennis career, she had pursued modelling and maintained involvement in fashion, often wearing outfits designed under her family’s brand.
