Grigor Dimitrov's Girlfriend: Eiza Gonzalez Isn't the First Famous Woman He's Dated
Actress Eiza Gonzalez is turning heads at Wimbledon, but she's not the only famous woman who Grigor Dimitrov has dated. He has dated women from the tennis, modeling and music worlds.
The Bulgarian tennis pro had a dramatic exit from Wimbledon on July 7 when he retired mid-match with a pec injury while in the lead against the world's #1 tennis player, Jannik Sinner.
His current girlfriend, the Baby Driver and Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw actress, gave him a big shout-out on her Instagram story after that injury.
"Love of my life. I couldn't be more proud of you. You are BEYOND outstanding," she wrote after Dimitrov was injured. "This is just a moment that will pass and will make you even stronger. But watching you today alongside the world was a reminder of who YOU are. You're a winner. We all saw it. And you'll do it again. ❤️ I love you @grigordimitrov."
He previously dated Pussycat Dolls alum Nicole Scherzinger. In 2018, they were spotted kissing on a yacht.
They lasted for about two years, and she posted a cryptic Instagram message when rumors swirled that they had broken up, according to US Weekly. It read, in part, "I am love. I am worthy. I am abundant. I am loved. I am magic. I matter. I am generous. I am alive..."
"It's not easy,' Dimitrov said in an interview then, about balancing tennis with his relationship with Scherzinger, according to US Weekly. 'The schedules are very heavy. But she's doing a better job than I am of being able to come to most of the places I'm at.'
For several years, he was linked to tennis superstar Maria Sharapova.
According to the New York Post, Dimitrov and Sharapova "were the sport's power couple between 2013 and 2015 before they parted ways."
He was asked about her at a news conference in 2020 and said, according to the Post, 'No, no, she's good. We have always kept a good friendship, good relationship."
He added: 'I'm not worried about her. I think she's in a good place, I think in her life. She's also the type of person that when you make such a, you know, such a decision and transition, you know it's for the right (reason) and for the good. I don't know. I wish I could tell you more.'
Dimitrov also was rumored to be dating tennis legend Serena Williams at one point. That rumor dates back to 2012 and was never confirmed, according to Wales Online.
Wales Online reports that he also dated Romanian actress Madalina Ghenea, who played Sophia Loren in House of Dimitrov's Girlfriend: Eiza Gonzalez Isn't the First Famous Woman He's Dated first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 8, 2025
