Simona Halep wasn’t too keen to travel during the pandemic last year to skip the American swing. However, it’s time for Simona to travel again across the continents and she certainly couldn’t miss playing the Australian Open.
Simona decided to travel to Down Under with her boyfriend Toni Iuric. They had their quarantine in Adelaide before heading to Melbourne.
The cameras caught a lovely moment between Simona and her boyfriend before Halep’s match against Laura Siegemund. It seems as Simona was more concerned about the skin of her boyfriend than her upcoming match when she was all focused in put the sunscreen on his face. That’s love!
