TENNIS superstar Carlos Alcaraz is dating swimsuit model Brooks Nader – putting an end to swirling rumours about a romance with Emma Raducanu.
Alcaraz, 22, is Brooks’ “man of the hour”, according to the model’s sister Grace Ann.
The tennis ace, who won the US Open on Sunday, had been linked with doubles playing partner and British tennis star Raducanu in recent months.
But Raducanu, 22, has maintained that the pair are just good friends and not romantically involved.
Instead, it turns out Alcaraz has been dating Brooks Nader, an influencer and model six years his senior.
Brooks, 28, hinted at their relationship last week during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel in which she was actually asked if she was dating Jannik Sinner after being spotted at the US Open.
She teased: “I don’t think he was playing in that one. You’re close, you’re warm.”
Now her sister Grace Ann has revealed all during an appearance at Raising Cane’s New York Fashion Week show.
Asked if Brooks and Alcaraz are dating, she said: “The rumours are true.
“Dating is such a loose term. But I do know he’s the man of the hour.”
Brooks watched on at Flushing Meadows as Alcaraz earned his second US Open title and cemented his spot as world number one.
But who is Brooks Nader?
SUPERSTAR MODEL
Brooks, who was born in Louisiana, is best known for her modelling career.
She landed her first big job after winning the 2019 Swim Search open casting call to be photographed in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
Brooks beat 10,000 applicants to land the gig, which kick-started her career in modelling.
Since then she has featured in the magazine in 2020, 2021 and 2022, as well as becoming a covergirl for other mags such as Maxim and US Weekly.
Her glamorous snaps have earned her a whopping 1.7MILLION followers on Instagram.
She often shares glimpses of her incredible lifestyle with her adoring fans, including holidays on a yacht and travelling the globe.
TV PERSONALITY
Brooks doesn’t just get behind the camera for photos, but has also become a TV star in recent years.
The Tulane University graduate competed on season 33 of Dancing with the Stars, the US equivalent of Strictly Come Dancing.
Her and dance partner Gleb Savchenko managed a ninth place finish in the series as she competed alongside other names including Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher.
Brooks’ TV presence has only grown since then too, and she launched her own reality show with her three sisters this summer.
The Hulu original series, named ‘Love Thy Nader’, follows Brooks, Grace Ann, Sarah Jane and Mary Holland as they live out their glamorous lives.
LOVE LIFE
Brooks got divorced from advertising mogul Billy Haire this year.
The pair met in New York when Brooks was just 18 years old and married in 2019.
Despite only finalising their divorce this year, Brooks and Haire are thought to have separated in 2022.
The model was later linked with royalty, after unconfirmed reports claimed she was dating Prince Constantine-Alexios of Greece and Denmark.
While her time on Dancing with the Stars saw her strike up a fling with partner Savchenko.
Now she appears to have found love with Alcaraz, who previously admitted that finding a relationship can be hard when you’re on tour.
He said: “It can be difficult as a tennis player to meet the right person because you are traveling all the time.”
But Brooks is yet to introduce her new boyfriend to the family, after sister Grace Ann revealed she is still waiting to put her seal of approval on the relationship.
Asked if she has met Alcaraz yet, she said: “I’m dying to. Such a cutie.”
