Who is Aryna Sabalenka’s boyfriend? Multimillionaire Georgios Frangulis
WTA star Aryna Sabalenka has found her boyfriend Georgios Frangulis to be one of her most loyal supporters since they started dating in 2024.
We take you through all there is to know about the hugely successful businessman – and inside his relationship with the multiple Grand Slam winner.
Early life and career
Born in September 1988, Frangulis was born in Sao Paolo and raised in the Brazilian city – with his parents originally from Northern Greece.
Frangulis would later go to Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado and study law, before graduating in 2014.
However, he did not pursue a career in law for too long – switching his attention elsewhere.
Oakberry founder
Despite his law background, Frangulis rose to prominence thanks to the launch of the global superfood brand Oakberry back in December 2016.
Oakberry is based on the use of Brazilian fruit Acai, with a range of healthy bowls and smoothies available throughout the world.
Though the company launched less than a decade ago, Oakberry now has over 600 stores in over 35 countries worldwide.
Oakberry continues to grow from strength to strength and it is thought that, largely due to the company’s success, Frangulis has a net worth of $75-100m.
Motorsport fan
Many tennis fans have been surprised to see Sabalenka appear at F1 races in recent months, with the Belarusian appearing at the 2024 season finale in Abu Dhabi and the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix back in May.
That is likely down to the influence of Frangulis, who is an avid motorsport fan – and has at times raced himself.
Since 2019, the Brazilian has raced in a range of Porsche events, largely in the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge.
According to Driver Database, Frangulis has raced largely in his home country and has picked up three career victories.

Relationship with Sabalenka
It was announced in January 2024 that Sabalenka would partner with Oakberry, and it is thought that this is when the two first met.
Frangulis and Sabalenka were in a relationship by April 2024 and the Brazilian has become a frequent figure in her player box since then, alongside coach Anton Dubrov.
After first being spotted in her player box at the Mutua Madrid Open, where she reached the final, he was present for both her Cincinnati Open and US Open victories in the summer of 2024.
Sabalenka’s 2024 saw her deal with the death of her former partner Konstantin Kotsov, and also struggle with injury – with the world No 1 forced out of Wimbledon.
Speaking to People Magazine, the 26-year-old credited Frangulis with helping her through her struggles.
She said: “There was a really tough period where I was really happy to have him by my side, always cheering me up, always making sure that we are doing some fun stuff.
“But I make sure I kind of forget about tennis and focus on the good things and enjoy my life. Even when things are going wrong in my career.
“So yeah, he was my biggest support and yeah, really happy to have him by my side.”
