Taylor Fritz’s missing missus, and more items from the column
Catch up on items from Page Six for the week of Monday August 31.
Romance on Fritz?
The influencer WAGs are out in full force at the US Open — just not necessarily the current ones! As Taylor Fritz took on Darwin Blanch Tuesday afternoon, spectators spent almost as much time checking out Fritz’s box as they did watching the action.
But the person they were looking for was nowhere to be found. Olivia Jade Giannulli, the nepo-baby influencer – rumored to be romantically involved with Fritz after the pair were spotted together in the city last week – appeared to be a no-show. She also seemed to be absent from Fritz’s Fan Week appearances last week — making her absence all the more conspicuous.
And the irony? Fritz’s ex-girlfriend, Morgan Riddle, was very much in the building. Riddle — another influencer, because apparently Fritz has a type — practically made a career out of being a tennis WAG during her relationship with the American, chronicling everything from what she wore to matches and how she packed for tournaments. Now, with Giannulli nowhere to be seen in Fritz’s box, Riddle was sitting prominently at Arthur Ashe the night before his Tuesday match, cheering on Naomi Osaka as she took on Anastasia Zakharova.

He’s just a simple, unassuming billionaire. Former mayor Michael Bloomberg skipped the lobster rolls and steak at the Hampton Classic horse show Sunday, and was spotted munching a hot dog.
“Someone asked him why, and he said, ‘I’m a NOO YAWKAH!’ The financial intel mogul was in Bridgehampton to see his daughter, the famed equestrian Georgina, compete in the annual competition. Also spotted enjoying the action from the swank VIP area — where food was provided by Robbins Wolfe — were Wilbur Ross, Peter Cook and Candace Bushnell, all at Abe Wellington’s table.
