TENNIS star Arina Rodionova announced she has is getting divorced in a bizarre video after setting up an OnlyFans page.
The 35-year-old was knocked out in second round of Australian Open qualifying to Eva Lys.
Rodionova took to social media yesterday, confirming her split from husband and ex-Aussie rules player Ty Vickery in a strange video.
She sat in front of her former partner while he held a half-eaten banana, saying: “We’re getting divorced.
“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. Thank you.”
Vickery added: “We’re good. We’re good with each other and we wish each other the best. Thanks for the support.”
Rodionova then turned to him and offered a handshake, only for him to thrust the banana into her grasp instead.
The couple, who have been together for nine years, then burst into laughter.
Rodionova’s post was captioned: “Life happens. We have lots of love for each other but sometimes it’s just not enough.”
The player with a career high ranking of No97 followed up her Australian Open exit by launching an OnlyFans page.
When joining the adult site, she said: “My account was confirmed so here we go. Let’s do this.”
Then in response to attention about her divorce, Rodionova added: “This seems like a good time to start posting all those bikini photos from the Maldives… on my OF account obviously.”
In her bio, the Russian-born star describes herself as a “tennis player but a fun one”.
Rodionova has never made it beyond the second round of a Grand Slam, with her joint-best performance coming at Wimbledon in 2017.
