Taylor Fritz’s ex Morgan Riddle makes US Open appearance months after breakup

Morgan Riddle made her presence known at the 2026 U.S. Open after her split from American tennis star Taylor Fritz in April.

The influencer, who had a six-year relationship with the No. 10-ranked American, attended Arthur Ashe Stadium on Sunday for the first day of competition.

Riddle, who sat a few rows back from the court, showed off a Honey Deuce cocktail and a box of the viral COQODAQ “Golden Nuggets” and caviar by restaurateur Simon Kim in a social media post from her seat.

Riddle, who donned a black tank and denim jeans while chatting with a friend, attended the U.S. Open before Fritz’s first-round match against Darwin Blanch on Monday.

Fritz was linked to model and influencer Olivia Jade Giannulli, who is the 26-year-old daughter of actress Lori Loughlin, when they were seen walking around New York City earlier this month. 

Riddle — who made a career out of showing her fashion at Fritz’s tennis matches on the ATP Tour — previously explained that she wouldn’t leave the tennis world after their split.

During a June appearance on the “Hot Smart Rich” podcast, Riddle explained her plans to attend this year’s U.S. Open in her single era.

“I think I could still be [the most powerful woman in men’s tennis],” Riddle said when host Maggie Sellers Reum referred to her as such. “I still am gonna go to tournaments. I would still love to make content around tennis. I already have deals for the U.S. Open, I’m going to the U.S. Open.

“It’s not like I’m erased from that world. Obviously I’m going to enter into it in a different way, but I’ve had a lot of girls reach out and be like, ‘Please don’t leave the tennis world. We still want this sort of content and commentary around it.

“I’m still going to be there just in a different way and obviously not as much. But I’m not [anti] tennis because of [the breakup]. Him and I are still friends.”

Riddle also said that she initiated the breakup.

She moved to New York City after the split and launched her business, The 400 Club — a sports marketing agency and membership community centered on female sports fans.
