Shocking love scandals in sports

From rumors of Brooks Nader dating both Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner at the 2025 US Open, the world of sports has seen many shocking love scandals that have broken families, fractured friendships, and ruined the careers of many stars.

Brooks Nader, Alcaraz, and Sinner. In 9/2025, American media reported that model Brooks Nader was romantically involved with both Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner during the US Open. Nader, 28, is a familiar face at Sports Illustrated, while Alcaraz and Sinner are two of the world's top tennis players.

Images of Nader in the VIP stands at the US Open fueled speculation. None of the three have commented, but the rumors quickly spread, becoming a hot topic during the Grand Slam tournament in New York.

John Terry and Wayne Bridge. In early 2010, the British press revealed that center-back John Terry had an affair with Vanessa Perroncel, the girlfriend of his former Chelsea teammate and close friend Wayne Bridge. The affair began after Terry married his girlfriend Tony Poole in 2007 and lasted for nearly two years before being exposed.

Following the scandal, the English Football Association stripped Terry of his captaincy to avoid impacting the national team. Bridge did not forgive Terry, announcing his retirement from international football shortly before the 2010 World Cup and separating from Perroncel, despite having a son together.

The incident not only fractured personal relationships but is also considered one of the biggest scandals in Premier League history.

Ryan Giggs and his sister-in-law. Ryan Giggs was once a symbol of loyalty, spending his entire senior career with Man Utd. But the former Welsh star's private life crumbled due to an 8-year relationship with Natasha, his brother Rhodri's wife.

Natasha's involvement with Ryan Giggs began in 3/2003, after they met at a nightclub in Manchester. She even became pregnant by the Man Utd legend, but had an abortion about two weeks before her wedding to Rhodri in the summer of 2010.

Mauro Icardi, Maxi Lopez, and Wanda Nara. This Italian football love triangle became a hot topic for years. Wanda Nara, Maxi Lopez's wife, left him for Mauro Icardi, Lopez's close friend and teammate at Sampdoria.

Lopez repeatedly accused Icardi of being the third person in their relationship and refused to shake his former friend's hand during a match between Inter and Sampdoria in 4/2014. Nara has five children, three sons with Lopez and two daughters with Icardi.

Icardi and Nara separated and reconciled multiple times before officially divorcing last summer. The Argentinian striker then publicly announced his relationship with China Suarez, who was previously rumored to be the "third person" who almost caused Icardi and Nara's marriage to collapse in 2021.

Tiger Woods and a series of infidelities. In 2009, the golf world was shocked when several women revealed they had affairs with Tiger Woods while he was still married to Elin Nordegren.

Woods initially denied the allegations, but later held a public apology press conference, admitting to sex addiction and withdrawing from several tournaments for therapy. Numerous endorsement contracts worth hundreds of millions of USD were canceled.

The marriage ended, with Elin receiving about 100 million USD in the divorce settlement and custody of their children. The two now maintain a friendly relationship to co-parent.

Boris Becker and his love child. German tennis legend Boris Becker had an illustrious career. But his private life was ruined in 1999 when he admitted to having a child out of wedlock with a Russian model after a brief encounter in a restaurant.

The incident led to the breakdown of Becker's marriage to Barbara Feltus. The press called it the "closet encounter," referring to where he had the affair.

In addition to the emotional toll, Becker had to pay a large sum in the divorce settlement and later faced constant financial crises, eventually being sentenced to prison for bankruptcy.

Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian. Tristan Thompson, an NBA player for the Cleveland Cavaliers, was repeatedly caught cheating while dating reality TV star Khloe Kardashian.

In 2019, Thompson caused a stir by having an affair with Jordyn Woods, a close friend of Khloe's sister Kylie Jenner. The incident ended his relationship with Khloe amid intense criticism.

Although the two later reunited and separated several times, Thompson's image remains associated with infidelity. He became a prime example of a love scandal in American basketball.

Tony Parker and Eva Longoria. NBA star Tony Parker once had a fairytale marriage to actress Eva Longoria. However, in 2010, Longoria filed for divorce after discovering her husband's infidelity.

The media revealed that Parker had a secret relationship and even regularly texted the wife of a teammate at the San Antonio Spurs. The incident shocked both the entertainment and sports worlds in America.

Tony Parker was Eva's second husband. In 2002, she married actor Tyler Christopher, but this first marriage lasted only two years.

Mike Tyson and the sex scandal. Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson rocked the sports world when he was convicted of raping 18-year-old Desiree Washington, Miss Black Rhode Island, in a hotel room in Indianapolis. A doctor confirmed that Washington showed signs of rape within 24 hours. Tyson claimed he did not force the woman and that the encounter was consensual.

Tyson was sentenced to six years in prison in 2/1992 but served only three before being released. The incident not only interrupted his boxing career but also changed public perception of him. After his conviction, the former American boxer became more associated with accusations of rape, assault, and addiction than with his athletic achievements.
