Maxime Cressy is running the headlines for an unpopular reason. The American tennis player’s on-court tantrum, which included throwing items, followed his 2024 US Open qualifiers loss to Jan Choinski. Not many would know, but Cressy has this unique ability to steal the spotlight while expressing his emotions. In 2023, he surprised the tennis world by announcing his relationship with the WTA star Priscilla Hon. Little did he know, this would turn ‘HORRENDOUS’!
Maxime Cressy and Priscilla Hon’s relationship became public in April 2023 when Cressy shared a photo of them together on social media. However, he quickly deleted the post after facing a backlash from online betting communities who saw it as a potential conflict of interest. However, the couple had been hinting at their relationship for some time prior to the public announcement.
In 2019, Hon was spotted cheering for Cressy from the stands during the Australian Open. After that, they have been spotted together multiple times on social media. But most importantly, both Cressy and Hon have made their bond stronger with their common love for the racquet sport. Despite the initial confirmation, the couple’s lack of public appearances together since last year has fueled speculation about the status of their relationship.
