Former Aussie No.1 Arina Rodionova gets divorced to former AFL player Ty Vickery, announces OnlyFans venture
WTA
Arina Rodionova has announced her divorce to former AFL Rules player Ty Vickery after nine years of marriage and will venture into OnlyFans having opened an account.
Rodionova who was Russian born but received citizenship before getting married to Vickery in 2015 announced her split in a joint Instagram video ironically with innuendo as a result of Vickery holding a banana.
“Hey guys, we have a quick announcement to make, we’re getting divorced,” Rodionova, 35, said. “We’ve been separated for about a year. Friends and family know, but we just wanted to let the wider community know about this situation.”
Vickery added, “We’re good, we’re good with each other, wish each other the best. Thanks for the support.”
Rodionova then placed her hand on Vickery who then put his half-eaten banana in her hand as both burst into laughter. “Life happens. We have lots of love for each other but sometimes it’s just not enough,” the post’s caption read.
A few days prior, Rodionova had launched her OnlyFans account reposting jokingly on Wednesday January 22 after spending a few days prior teasing fans that it was launching.
“With all these articles going around … this seems like a good time to start posting all those bikini photos from the Maldives,” she wrote. “On my OF account, obviously.”
It has been a busy time for Rodionova who is currently at the Singapore Tennis Open. Despite losing in Australian Open qualifying, she used her collection of items she has accrued for good as she is donating to charity holding an auction with racquets from herself, Daria Kasatkina, Frances Tiafoe and items from Coco Gauff for instance that she has got over the years.
Rodionova is a usual face also for those who watch Kasatkina's vlog and is an ongoing player who is a part of it. She also hilariously went ice skating with Kasatkina's partner who is a professional ice skater which made for hilarious content.
Now she will aim to bring that side over to OnlyFans having announced her divorce promptly afterwards. The site has now launched with her bio reading. “I am a tennis player but a fun one."

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
