Tennis sensation Emma Raducanu seems to have the internet buzzing — and not for her forehand this time. Recent photos posted on her Instagram have sparked fresh speculation after she was spotted cozying up with a handsome mystery man, and a single comment plunged the fandom into full “are-they-or-aren’t-they” mode.
Over the weekend, Raducanu — 23 and already one of Britain’s brightest tennis stars — was seen leaving her flat in south-west London, arm-in-arm with a man identified by British tabloids as Jack Coman, a New Zealand finance professional. Eyewitnesses claimed the pair appeared relaxed and happy, and their low-key outing soon turned into a major talking point across social media when they attended a rugby match together, sitting side-by-side at the stadium.

But the real spark? A friend’s comment under one of Raducanu’s Instagram photos: a single word — “lovers.” Raducanu responded with three heart emojis. That little digital moment was enough for thousands of fans to go into overdrive, convinced she’s quietly stepped into a new romance. Tennis World USA+2SSBCrack News+2
Previously, Raducanu had faced intense scrutiny over alleged romances — including rumours involving fellow tennis star Carlos Alcaraz, which she firmly denied, calling him just a friend. Yahoo Sports+2New Age+2 For many, though, this weekend’s behaviour hints at something different — more intimate, less public-relations polished.
According to one onlooker: “She looked very happy. I’m not sure if they’re just friends or if there’s something more, but they seemed to enjoy each other’s company.” GB News+1
Despite the secrecy, this isn’t the first time Raducanu’s private life has been under the microscope. Earlier this year she was linked to a childhood friend, and last summer fans speculated about her and Alcaraz — especially around their mixed-doubles partnership. She has always pushed back gently on these rumours. AOL+2Yahoo+2
Now, with these new photos and that single evocative comment, many are asking: has she finally found someone who’s more than a friend — someone she’s ready to let into her life off the tennis court?
Whether romance or just a close friendship, one thing’s certain: fans — and the media — won’t stop watching. And something tells us there are more late-night Instagram posts coming soon.
