Morgan Riddle, the social media personality and longtime girlfriend of American tennis star Taylor Fritz, is hitting back at critics who claim she’s only successful because of her boyfriend’s fame. Known for her courtside presence and stylish behind-the-scenes content from the ATP Tour, Riddle has built her own brand and following—but not without facing backlash.
In a recent social media post, Riddle addressed accusations that she’s “capitalizing” on Fritz’s career, calling the criticism sexist and dismissive. “It’s 2024, and we’re still shaming women for being ambitious?” she posted. “I’ve worked hard to create content, build a community, and grow my platform. Being in a relationship shouldn’t discredit that.”
Riddle, who has over 150k followers on Instagram and a growing presence on TikTok, often shares travel vlogs, tournament highlights, and fashion content from the tennis world. While some fans applaud her for bringing attention to tennis in a fresh, relatable way, others claim she’s leveraging Fritz’s success for her own gain.
But her clapback is earning support, with many applauding her confidence and work ethic. It’s clear that Riddle isn’t just a “tennis girlfriend”—she’s creating a brand of her own while championing her partner and the sport.
